Analysis of Organizational Decision Making
Decision making is very important in any given organization, but before a decision is made the administration needs to plan ahead on future expectations. Chris is the founder of Roberts Limited. He can not make decisions on his own which means he has to involve the entire workforce of this organization. This includes employees of all levels from juniors to seniors.
The decision of establishing a branch at Kava is aimed at giving back to the society. Although Kava is prone to natural disasters that can not be intercepted by humans, the company must establish its roots in this region where nobody dares to explore. Success does not come easily but through hard work and taking the risk even when others think it is not safe to do so.
All employees should be informed that the more one risks the higher the returns. The organization is therefore committed to providing its services where they are most needed. All should be bold enough in Kava’s expedition because after enduring the risks the organization will grow and thus that growth will be reflected on employees. If employees decide to boycott Kava’s mission for security reasons they should know that death is a must for all so staying away from Kava does not increase one’s lifespan.
The demand for services from Roberts Limited has shot up. This has been evidenced by frequent requests by Kava’s government agencies. It is therefore important to respond to client needs as soon as possible. If the organization is reluctant to respond to client needs, the organizations competitors will take advantage of the current situation in Kava and this will not go down well with Chris.
All employees are answerable to Chris should they fail the organization and that means that every one must do his/her best to achieve the desired results. Employees should know that growth takes a very long period to be achieved and once it has been realized it should be well taken care of because it is very delicate. A single mistake is what it takes to stain the credibility of an organization.
It is recommended that employees look at Kava from a different perspective. The company’s door are open for suggestions and therefore employees should come up with their own creativity regarding the current situation in Kava and seek to establish a solution that will benefit both the organization and the citizens of Kava. The organization must also involve all the major stakeholders of Kava. This involves consulting other organizations that are well acquainted with Kava such as non governmental organizations, faith groups, and government agencies.
Consultations will provide relevant information that will help the organization in making critical decisions. The organizations mentioned above are most likely to be more informed about the problems that are being experienced or were encountered by other participants in Kava. They will act as advisors because of their experience in working in this kind of environment.
Chris should hold a meeting with his organization’s management team. They should use the findings from Nik and Alex to establish what changes should be made to improve the organization’s productivity in Kava. The management should also identify the services and goods that are not needed in Kava and scrap them off but replace them with those that are mostly crucial to the people of this country.
All reports and suggestions from the organization’s field officers should be evaluated to see if they are workable. Chris and his management team should not focus on the expenses that will be incurred by the organization because by doing so they will not notice the opportunities that could benefit the company. The organization should seek to execute ideas that are unique hence will make the company stand out from the rest.
The economy of Kava is very promising but growth has not been realized due to frequent national disasters such as earth quakes and hurricane. However it is worth noting that there are very many natural resources that are in Kava which must be explored. The organization should analyze the opportunities of growth that are present in Kava and compare these opportunities with the threats.
These resources are not only important to the people of Kava but also to other countries that require these resources. Kava’s natural resources are very valuable and can sustain its economy only if they are well managed. These resources include petroleum, coffee, bananas, sugar, and natural gas. All these resources must find their way out of Kava in order to reach their target markets. These resources must not lie idle since they hold the livelihood of citizens of Kava. For instance setting up a company to explore the oil deposits in Kava will create employment for quite a number of youths who are unemployed.
The organization should also bank on the locally available cheap labor from Kava because hiring employees from other places other than Kava will impact on the company’s budget. This is because the new hires will have to be relocated. The local workforce can be more efficient because they are used to the national calamities in Kava and therefore can work without fear to accomplish the organization’s mission in Kava.
The company should also identify the ideas that can be implemented within the shortest time frame as possible. The company’s human resources department should conduct interviews to identify people who reside in Kava but they have the relevant skills and abilities. The human resources department should make sure that they bring relevant talents on board. Failure to do so will undermine the company’s efforts in achieving its mission. The administrator in charge of human resources should be very keen in manning the workforce of the company as well as the equipments if any. The HR manager should motivate his staff by establishing good working relationships with employees. This is very crucial because if employees encounter any problems or have a suggestion to make, they can air it with ease.
The HR should include the employees when making decisions because this will make them feel they are appreciated. The HR should also be quick to acknowledge any commendable effort that has been made by an employee no matter how small it is. If the employees’ efforts are not recognized at the present the workforce will feel like they don’t matter to the organization and fail to make personal decisions when the need to do so arises.
In essence, the company’s present achievements are owed to its employees and therefore it should appreciate the efforts made by its employees. The HR manager should make sure employees are not overwhelmed with duties. This is because some or most have families that need their time hence there should be a balance between work and personal life such as family.
For the organization’s mission to be achieved all employees including the administrators must be fully dedicated to the success of the organization’s mission. This means that administrators should not just give orders verbally but they must fully participate in implementing organizational policies.
