Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book establishes the significance of Decision Support Systems (DSS) as a means to improve productivity in today's managerial workforce. The author challenges prevailing strategies for productivity improvement that focus solely on the characteristics of a task, arguing instead that the perspective of the manager must inform efforts to improve their output. The author presents a model of DSS that is flexible, easily adaptable, and capable of offering customized staff assistance to managers. Rather than replace managerial judgment, this system supports existing practices and provides tools that improve efficiency. The book argues that, given the complexity of most managerial work, increasing the productivity of managers cannot be reliably measured in terms of traditional cost-benefit analyses, but rather by more nuanced qualitative factors. These factors include increased speed, flexibility, and depth of analysis. The author contends that the insights offered by DSS will help to inform a broader conception of productivity, and that the simple and practical methods this book provides for analyzing complex jobs can help organizations improve the performance of their managers.
