In the past, company success was typically measured by financial indicators. Lately though, non-financial measures such as employee morale have become popular. Although there are approaches that look into quantitative and qualitative performance measures affecting company success, none of them characterize it in a holistic way, combining all the critical performance measures. This book presents a multifaceted approach that prepares engineers and future organizational leaders/managers to measure, monitor, and predict company success in a more meaningful way.

Zielgruppe

Industrial engineers, operations research practitioners, manufacturing engineers and quality engineers. It also would be useful to safety engineers and practitioners, human factors and ergonomics professionals, human resource practitioners, auditors and evaluators.
