Que. 1
What are the advantages and disadvantages of the resource-based approach versus the goal approach for measuring organizational effectiveness?
Answer 1Goal Approach (approach associated with
OUTPUT) This approach emphasizes the ability of
organization to achieve its operating goals.Examples,
Market shareProfit increaseSales target etc
Answer 1
Pros:Straightforward approach, especially when
goals are measurable.Often appropriate for for-profit organizations
(profitability, market share,...)Cons:goals are often multiple & conflictinggoals are not always easy to identify & to
measure, especially for non-profit organizations (EX: "public safety" as a police department goal)
System Resource ApproachSystem Resource Approach (Approach
associated with INPUT)It Emphasizes the ability of the organization
to acquire scarce and valued recourses.Example,
Donations received by NGO
System Resource ApproachPros:It is mostly useful when other indicators of
performance are unavailable.EX: quality of a university measured as
amount of research grants, acquisition of top faculty, average SAT score of entering students
System Resource ApproachCons:It vaguely consider the organization’s link to
the needs of the customersIn it the assessment of effectiveness is indirect
(EX: police department has acquired 3 new cruisers; but did the crime rate go down?)
The approach assumes stability in the market place and fails to adequately consider the changing value of various resources as competitive environment and customer
Question 2
What are the similarities and differences between assessing effectiveness on the basis of competing values versus the strategic constituents approach? Explain.
Answer 2Strategic Constituents Approach
This approach measures effectiveness by focusing on the satisfaction of key stakeholders.
Stakeholders are divided into different constituent groups such as owners, employees, customers, creditors, community etc
Each of these constituents have different criterion of effectiveness
Answer 2Competing Values ModelThis approach to effectiveness acknowledges
that organisations do many things and have many outcomes
It combines several indicators of effectiveness into a single framework. The model was originally developed by Robert Quinn and John Rohrbaugh.
Their analysis found underlying dimensions of effectiveness criteria that represented competing management values in organisations.
Answer 2Similarity The similarity between assessing
effectiveness on basis of Strategic constituents approach and Competing values model is that both of these models take into consideration that effectiveness has no single measure and there can be different indicators of effectiveness in an organisation.
Answer 2Differences The major difference between these two
models is of the indicators of effectiveness. Strategic constituents approach measures effectiveness through the different effectiveness criteria od the strategic constituents and competing values model measures effectiveness through the management values of the organisation
