door Tom Rovers & Laurens Frijters op 26 June, 2009

In order to stay competitive in this knowledge based economy you should focus on the productivity of your organization. Becoming a performance driven organization is not a quick win. However, it is possible to make a quick start with the Factor 4 index (Dutch | English).

This tool allows you to measure and monitor the performance of your organization. It does so by examining the 4 dimensions of the new world of work.

Inspiration: Are people motivated to achieve the best they can?
Organization: How is your organization structured?
Culture: In which way do people within your organization interact?
Technology: (How) does technology support your people and processes?

Each dimension has been worked out in 4 categories. Each of the 16 categories consists of 4 statements. For every statement, participants are asked to indicate their own experience regarding a certain aspect of operational management and what they desire in that respect.

The Factor 4 Index is often used as a tool by organizations that are planning on entering the new world of work. It is especially powerful because it uses the experiences of all your employees to discover what their needs are.

Action:
• Register your organization and take the Factor 4 test for free
• Find a partner if you want to be supported in this process

Factor 4 site: Dutch | English
