Designing Team-Based Organizations breaks new ground in tackling the organizational design issues related to the implementation of teams, with a specific focus on the new designs required to support the knowledge-work components of organizations. The authors offer a field-tested design framework to help managers, consultants, human resource specialists, and students of organization design understand and develop structures and systems necessary to support the strategic deployment of teams. Drawing on over fifteen years of research and consulting with such companies as Honeywell, Hewlett Packard, Pacific Bell, General Mills, Pratt and Whitney, Pfizer, and Texas Instruments, they present a detailed, five-step design process for creating new organization designs that empower teams so that they make a real difference

In the course of carrying out the technical tasks of the school, teachers encounter common problems that do not impose on those in managerial roles. School organizations are typically structured in such a way as to prevent the information sharing and processing necessary to confront these problems. A collective decision-making structure for teachers is needed to supplement the traditional institutional decision-making structure of the school system. This paper describes and evaluates a survey-feedback-based, problem-solving structural intervention originally conceptualized and tested in an earlier experiment. A three-year project using a refined version of an earlier design and a quasi-experimental research design is reported on in this document. Results of the project were generally favorable, with teachers taking a greater role in decision-making, but a need was seen for further work to make the system compatible with the existing wide range of school patterns and needs.

"Dealing with issues that cut across all social and behavioral sciences, Doing Research That Is Useful for Theory and Practice is full of practical advice on conducting successful research. Of particular value to emerging organizational researchers and future executives, the debate addresses the kind of relationship to develop with organizations, what research methods and instruments are most useful, the kind of feedback to give organizations, and the ethical responsibilities researchers have. Although the examples presented are mostly from organizational research, industrial and organizational psychologists - as well as other professionals in psychology, sociology, and management - confront the same questions about research methodology and value

This paper is concerned with what motivates the behavior involved in carrying out performance appraisals (PA) in organizations. Typically, research and theory concerned with motivation has focused on how PA effects the subsequent work behavior of the appraisee; here we will focus on what motivates the PA behaviors themselves. Conducting a PA involves a set of behaviors performed by organizational members. As such, PA behaviors are simply one subset of the total set of role behaviors they perform. Thus, they can be analyzed as any other organizational behavior. PA behavior is a particularly interesting and important type of behavior to study. The particular purposes of PA create contexts that give PA behaviors unique and complex meanings that are worthy of study for what they can teach us about motivation and assessment. In addition, as we come to understand more about the results of certain PA behaviors (such as allowing participation in the process by appraisees) and as we become more concerned with the quality of PA behaviors (e.g., bias in measurement), we also need to be more concerned about what motivates such behaviors so they can be managed. Seeking to manage performance behaviors through PA will come to nought unless these PA behaviors themselves can be managed
