Excellence is a comdination of efficiency and effectiveness

Guys,back with one another interesting masterpiece on organizational management.

The session is based on "Three idiots crossing the valley" scenario below.


So It started with the below activity ,here you can see mandi sir explaining to the students the activity and how it is relevant to todays organizational behaviour.




The task at hand required a group of three people to move from left side of the valley to the right side with the help of a pole.you can see in the below image my batchmates are demostrating the same.





They started with dividing the task into 9 subtask categorised below.



Structuring of Task:
There are three position in this whole task.
1. Fully unsafe: The hanging position is of high risk.
2. Half Safe: One foot on the ground and other hanging in valley is medium risk.
3. Fully Safe: The position where both the feet are on ground is of no risk.


Here if you notice all the persons go through this phase. So all positions are same. The tasks should be designed in such a way that it shouldnot be dependent on person.

So Time for Learnings from the task

Team Excellence: 
Excellence is a comdination of efficiency and effectiveness. Individual cannot achieve excellence but a team an organisation can achieve that. Efficiency and effectiveness both comes simultaneously and has to be handled simultaneously. Effectiveness is where to go? and efficiency is how to go efficiently i.e at reduced cost or enhanced safety. But to put effect efficiency one has to again think efficiently.

So Over and out for the time being see you soon in next session of POM.
