[Ausencia de respuesta de las organizaciones empresariales a las condiciones cambiantes del entorno: un problema de gestión de la complejidad]. Articulo en Inglés.

This paper argues that the inflexibility, weakness and slowness of business organizations to respond to changing environmental conditions arise from the mismanagement of the complexity that characterizes the dominant paradigm of management. The traditional administration seeks to reduce the complexity of a system that permanently increases. In the article are featured characteristics of the dominant administration paradigm, and the criticisms that have been made by different authors towards the lack of response from the traditional administration. El presente documento plantea que la in exibilidad, fragilidad y lentitud de las organizaciones empresariales para responder a las condiciones cam- biantes del entorno surge de la de ciente gestión de la complejidad que ca- racteriza al paradigma dominante de la administración. La administración tradicional busca reducir la complejidad de un sistema, que permanente la incrementa. En el artículo se presentan las características del paradigma dominante de la administración y las críticas que han sido realizadas por diferentes autores frente a la ausencia de respuesta de la administración tradicional

PENGORGANISASIAN INTELLECTUAL CAPITAL: SEBUAH PENDEKATAN OPERASIONAL BAGI UNIVERSITAS

Intellectual Capital (IP) approach and the application of Intellectual Capital in an organization is still very limited. If managed well, then the values created by labor (manpower) are innovative, accurate, smart, thoughtful, and productive produce something as intelligence and knowledge (knowledge based). Wrapped in a way that intellectual capital is strong in thought and action so that the values (values) itself is a real intellectual capital in organizations. Organizing is intended as a management tool set that is owned and provided resources for the organization's goals and can be achieved by means of "better" than they are today and for the foreseeable future. Intellectual capital is more specific need to be organized in order to benefit more in each organization. Companies that allocate a larger intellectual capital should be able to make measurements of economic results that are more specific, especially in relation to the output of organizations such as reputation, the number of sales, the number of applicants for university courses. Intellectual understanding is not meant as an intangible result, but have tangible results (can be physically counted). Keywords: Intellectual Capital, Organization, Universit

Hallinta ja itseohjautuvuus palvelujen integraatiossa

Palvelujen integraatio on ollut käynnissä olleen sosiaali- ja terveydenhuollon uudistuksen sekä sen valmistelua tukeneen lapsi- ja perhepalvelujen muutosohjelman kulmakivi. Palveluja integroimalla pyritään saa- vuttamaan asiakaslähtöiset, vaikuttavat sekä kustannustehokkaat palvelut, jotka vastaavat muun muassa väestön ikääntymisestä aiheutuvaan taloudelliseen kestävyysvajeeseen. Rakenteellisten muutosten lisäksi saumattomien ja asiakaslähtöisten palvelujen tuottaminen edellyttää jatkossa muutoksia toimintakulttuurissa ja ammattilaisten tukemisessa. Muutokset palvelujen tuottamisessa sekä toimintaympäristössä haastavat ammattilaisten osaamista uudella tavalla. Tässä tutkielmassa tutkittiin lasten, nuorten ja perheiden palvelujen integraation hallintaa sekä sitä, millainen hallinta tukee lasten, nuorten ja perheiden palvelujen parissa työskentelevien ammattilaisten itseohjautuvuutta. Teoreettinen viitekehys rakentui hallinnan, palvelujen integraation sekä itseohjautuvuuden käsit- teiden ympärille. Tutkielman empiirinen aineisto koostui lasten, nuorten ja perheiden palvelujen parissa työskentelevien ammattilaisten fokusryhmähaastatteluista. Aineisto analysoitiin teoriaohjaavaa sisällönanalyysia hyödyntäen. Tutkielman keskeisimmät tulokset osoittivat, että itseohjautuvuuden mahdollistava palvelujen integraation hallinta koostuu joustavista ja tukevista rakenteista, organisaatioiden välille luoduista verkostoista, ammattilaisten yhteistyön ja osaamisen kehittämisestä sekä palvelujen asiakaslähtöisen toteuttamisen tukemisesta. Tutkielman empiiriset tulokset ja teoreettinen viitekehys tukivat pääosin toisiaan. Tutkielman merkittävimmäksi tulokseksi nousivat ammattilaisten haastatteluissa painottuneet palvelujen integraation hallinnassa itseohjautuvuuden mahdollistavat tekijät. Lasten, nuorten ja perheiden palvelut ovat murrosvaiheessa, jossa palvelujen tuottamiseen etsitään kestävämpiä ratkaisuja. Myös ammattilaisilta vaaditaan tulevaisuudessa uudenlaista osaamista ja siksi jo nyt on tärkeä tarttua niihin tekijöihin, jotka tukevat ammattilaisia uudenlaisessa toimintaympäristössä ja samalla mahdollistavat uusien asiakkaiden tarpeita palvelevien toimintatapojen syntymistä. Itseohjautuvuuden mahdollistava palvelujen integraation hallinta ei edellytä vain suuria tekoja. Ammattilaisten kokemuksien mukaan pienetkin käden ojennukset voivat edistää asiakaslähtöisten palvelujen rakentumista

Assessing information value for harnessing knowledge needed for improving decision-making and effectiveness of a government organisation: A Case study of Abu Dhabi Police Force

Due to many adverse consequences of poor decision making in organisations there is a need to focus on the quality of information and knowledge. This research focuses on how to obtain and use, or “harness” knowledge from information in improving organisational decision-making in a civil protection/security organisation to become effective and enter an organisational wide learning spiral. This is necessary in order to gain a high degree of intuitiveness and intelligence and to be effective. The researcher explores how information-knowledge can be processed and converted into deeper level knowledge, while at the same time how to get decision makers to codify knowledge in order to help them to externalise it. In order to achieve this, the “information-space” model was used to show the information-to-knowledge dynamic journey. The research involved using quantitative and qualitative methods. The quantitative approach is used to obtain computable results from key decision-makers, such as senior workers, and test a model derived from the literature. Seventeen hypotheses were proposed based on theory to evaluate the proposed model. Primary data was collected during the empirical phase of the research from 135 respondents. A structural equation model was used and included exogenous and endogenous latent constructs. On the other hand, a use of qualitative research helped to obtain deeper insights into the use of information and knowledge in decision making. It was underpinned by several propositions and its aim was to expose the role of information-knowledge and the creation of a learning organisation. The results of the quantitative approach revealed that twelve hypotheses are positively significant. Two hypotheses have a significant negative impact on other constructs. Additionally, three hypotheses are non-statistically significant. The results reveal some very interesting insights, such as that demographic factors, such as age, level of education, gender, work experience and level of authority, have a significant impact on problem solving and decision making. In terms of type of information, the proprietary and common sense information types have more significance for solving problem and decision making. But, much to the researcher’s surprise, the public information and personal information played a very minor role. On the other hand, the results of the qualitative data collection show how key decision makers made decisions and gained a certain degree of intuition from it. Therefore, this research has met its objective in helping towards improvement in a civil protection/security organisation to become a learning organisation and help it to enter a learning spiral and make continual improvement. Hence, the researcher succeeds in making suitable recommendations to a number of different stakeholders, in particular the civil protection/security organisations to (i) to develop their management and specialist personnel, and, (ii) to have the necessary information management strategy in place that would harness information and help towards (iii) creating an effective and robust knowledge management strategy
