Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper aims to develop a process model of the relationship between participative decision-making (PDM) and voice. First, it is hypothesised that this relationship will be moderated by the effects of intellectual stimulation (outside contextual factor) and individual cultural values (allocentrism vs. collectivism) Second, this paper also considered the impact voice has upon employee outcomes, specifically that of task performance, job satisfaction and job dedication. It is hypothesised that psychological ownership and emotional engagement mediates this relationship. Lastly, this paper explores the possibility that the relationship may also be indirectly moderated by overall system/managerial responsiveness.
Book Synopsis How Voice Shapes Reactions to Impartial Decision-Makers by : Marco Kleine
Download or read book How Voice Shapes Reactions to Impartial Decision-Makers written by Marco Kleine and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper studies how participation in decision procedures affects people's reactions to the deciding authority. In our economic experiment, having voice, i.e., the opportunity to state one's opinion prior to a decision, significantly increases subordinates' subsequent kindness towards the authority. These positive effects occur irrespectively of the decisions' content. The experimental findings stress the positive effects of voice when subordinates and authorities interact. Our results suggest that in organizations, but also in the legal and political arena, participative decision-making can be used to guide people's actions after decisions have been taken.

Book Synopsis (Non-)Participation in Deliberation at Work by : Gianluca Schiavo
Download or read book (Non-)Participation in Deliberation at Work written by Gianluca Schiavo and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Social media are implemented by organisations to enhance productivity and knowledge sharing among employees, but they can also support group deliberation and employee voice. This paper presents a case study of an online deliberation initiative involving the discussion of a contentious internal policy within an organisation of around 550 knowledge workers. The deliberation process lasted 5 weeks and actively involved 167 employees. Different sources of information (user interaction logs, activity patterns, questionnaire responses) were analysed to investigate the impact of participation, or non-participation, on the level of satisfaction with the deliberation, and on the understanding of the issue discussed. The findings suggest that (1) interest is a driver for participation, but it does not explain active participation, (2) participation, either active or passive, positively influences the understanding of the issue and (3) satisfaction with the outcome is not related to participation, but it may support participation in future initiatives.
Book Synopsis Engaging the Community in Decision Making by : Roz Diane Lasker
Download or read book Engaging the Community in Decision Making written by Roz Diane Lasker and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2009-03-23 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In recent years, the rapidly growing field of community participation has promised to give people formerly excluded from decision making an influential voice about issues that affect their lives. Inclusive processes implemented in the United States and internationally have certainly given community members new opportunities to participate and be involved, but how effective are these processes in promoting the voice and influence of the people who have historically been excluded the most--the poorest, least educated, and most marginalized residents in communities? Of the various participants who have "a seat at the table," whose voices are influential, whose aren't, and why? This book summarizes how five community partnerships, working with a team of researchers, attempted to answer these critical questions. Investigating 10 cases--two from each community partnership--the study tracks the ideas of everyone involved and reveals how and why the ideas of marginalized and ordinary residents were far less likely to be influential than those of people with more clout, resources, or acknowledged expertise. Finally, the authors explain how and why these influence inequities can be overcome, providing readers with practical, evidence-based tools to help them do so. The book should be helpful to readers involved in any form of active community participation, from participatory research to civic engagement, deliberative democracy, and community initiatives.

Book Synopsis Whose Voice is Heard? by : Michael Stephen Michaud
Download or read book Whose Voice is Heard? written by Michael Stephen Michaud and published by . This book was released on 2023 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many organizations across the United States were severely impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic, including institutions of higher education. Campus leaders needed to make decisions about closing campuses, increasing financial constraints, shifts in research, and changing class modalities. Past research shows that one preferred method for making decisions during an organizational crisis is using teams of decision-makers, although there has been little research focused on the composition of these teams. Others advocate for the inclusion of various stakeholders in the decision-making structure; however, it is not known how often stakeholders, including faculty, below-director-level staff, and students, are included in decision-making. This dissertation asks three questions: (1) What stakeholders are included on crisis decision-making teams at organizations of higher education during the COVID-19 pandemic? (2) What institutional factors influence stakeholder participation in crisis decision-making teams at organizations of higher education during the COVID-19 pandemic? (3) How were stakeholder voices included in decision-making teams during the COVID-19 decision-making process? The first phase, answering the first two research questions, utilizes a content analysis and survey of 150 US higher education institutions to investigate the inclusion of stakeholders in COVID-19 decision-making teams. Institutional data from the Carnegie Classification of Institutions of Higher Education was used to compare differences based on institution types and sizes. The results show about half of the decision-making teams included stakeholders. Faculty are the most likely to be included and students are the least likely. There is no statistically significant association between any institutional characteristic and stakeholder inclusion. Larger decision-making teams are more likely to include stakeholders than smaller teams. The second phase, answering the third research question, utilizes 20 semi-structured interviews of decision-making team members. Results show faculty are most likely to be included and considered in the decision-making process. While students are less likely to be included, there are ways for their perspectives to be included in decision-making. Staff member perspectives were the least included in decision-making. These findings are the first examination of stakeholder inclusion in higher education crisis decision-making and show that inclusion is limited, despite previous research showing the benefits. They serve as a foundation for future research and offer considerations for practitioners.
Book Synopsis Employee Voice and Participation by : Jeff Hyman
Download or read book Employee Voice and Participation written by Jeff Hyman and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-06-13 with total page 287 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Employee participation and voice (EPV) concern power and influence. Traditionally, EPV has encompassed worker attempts to wrest control from employers through radical societal transformation or to share control through collective regulation by trade unions. This book offers a controversial alternative arguing that, in recent years, participation has shifted direction. In Employee Voice and Participation, the author contends that participation has moved away from employee attempts to secure autonomy and influence over organisational affairs, to one in which management ideas and initiatives have taken centre stage. This shift has been bolstered in the UK and USA by economic policies that treat regulation as an obstacle to competitive performance. Through an examination of the development of ideas and practice surrounding employee voice and participation, this volume tracks the story from the earliest attempts at securing worker control, through to the rise of trade unions, and today’s managerial efforts to contain union influence. It also explores the negative consequences of these changes and, though the outlook is pessimistic, considers possible approaches to address the growing power imbalance between employers and workers. Employee Voice and Participation will be an excellent supplementary text for advanced students of employment relations and Human Resource Management (HRM). It will also be a valuable read for researchers, policy makers, trade unions and HRM professionals.
Book Synopsis Voice, agency, empowerment - handbook on social participation for universal health coverage by :
Download or read book Voice, agency, empowerment - handbook on social participation for universal health coverage written by and published by World Health Organization. This book was released on 2020-12-21 with total page 252 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Social participation is an important means for governments to develop responsive health policies and programmes, which are more likely to be implemented by a broad stakeholder group. It is at the heart of the inclusive governance needed for countries to stake their individual paths towards Universal Health Coverage while ensuring that no one is left behind. As simple as it may seem in theory, it is a complex undertaking in practice, one which policy-makers struggle with. The Handbook on Social Participation for UHC is thus designed to provide practical guidance, anchored in conceptual clarifications, on strengthening meaningful government engagement with the population, communities, and civil society for national health policy-making. It draws on best practices and lessons learned to support government institutions in setting up, fine-tuning, improving, and institutionalizing new or existing participatory health governance mechanisms. The handbook follows through the different tasks which policy-makers must reflect on and undertake when bringing in people’s voice into health policy-making. Examples include creating an enabling environment for participation, ensuring good representation, strengthening capacities, increasing policy-uptake of participatory process results, and sustaining participatory engagement over time. A fundamental premise of the handbook rests on the idea that policy-makers can leverage format and design elements of a participatory process to address power dynamics amongst participants, thereby fostering more meaningful contributions to the process.

Download or read book Child and Youth Participation in Policy, Practice and Research written by Deirdre Horgan and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-12-23 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book showcases rights based participatory approaches to policy-making, practice and research with children and youth. Throughout its three parts, the book conceptualises a rights-based participatory approach; showcases constructive and innovative rights based participatory approaches across the domains of research, policy and practice; and interrogates the challenges and complexities in the implementation of such an approach. In recent times, Ireland has been at the forefront of promoting and implementing participatory approaches to policy-making, practice and research focused on children and youth. This edited volume is a timely opportunity to capture previously undocumented learning generated from a wide range of innovative participatory initiatives implemented in Ireland. In capturing this learning, real world guidance will be provided to international policy-makers, practitioners and researchers working with children and youth. This book is essential reading for those interested in a rights based participatory approach, for those who want to appropriately and meaningfully engage children and youth in research, and for those wishing to maximise the contribution of children and youth in policy-making.

Book Synopsis Participation and the Quality of Environmental Decision Making by : F. Coenen
Download or read book Participation and the Quality of Environmental Decision Making written by F. Coenen and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is clear that our society must become a more sustainable one. To that end, we must change both our production and our consumption patterns. Some argue that this implies the abolition of democratic processes, and thus of citizens' participation in environmental policy. Others argue the opposite: the only way to avoid impending environmental disaster is by engaging in common deliberation and contemplation. Is participation, then, a negative force or not? This volume is one of the first coordinated attempts to study the relationship between democratic, participatory forms of decision making and the quality of environmental decisions. The central question is how can the normatively desirable practice of participatory decision making be combined with an effective approach to environmental issues? Guided by a theoretical introduction by the editors, the 15 chapters deal with topics ranging from the scale of environmental problems, local agenda 21, infrastructural decisions, strategic planning, to environmental policy in developing countries. Three chapters are devoted to each of these broad themes. Each presents either a theoretical or an empirical argument about the central research question, shedding light on such issues as the measurement of decision quality, participation techniques, and the link between participation and decision quality, drawing on experience gained in Europe, North and South America, Asia, and Africa. The introductions to the individual parts of the book have been collectively written by the contributors, who represent a range of professional disciplines, including political science, public policy and planning.
