Recognizing Success

Management must understand the indicator or warning signs and know how to react. You as part of management are no different. For example, how many times have you approached an employee to tell him that he is doing a good job, but failed to stop and listen to what he has to say because, again, I don t have the time It s important to take the time. A few seconds can mean a lot to the employee. 

Any system, no matter how good it is, is resistant to change. No one likes change, so we resist it. This is human nature. You must learn to deal with these changes. Behaviors need to be shaped and reinforced through praise and positive recognition. 

Why do you think this trend happens The fact is that the more you pay attention to incidents, the more issues you will see [5]. You cannot react when you have several injuries. K your process is in place, you have to give it time to work. 

OSHA s current stance places the burden of proof on management to demonstrate that incentives are not being used to manipulate incident reporting. In some cases, they have levied fines for recordkeeping violations on companies that tie bonuses to incident-free records [6]. 

Safety professionals are frustrated when a well-intentioned, comprehensive safety management system is put into place, yet employees continue to be injured. Safety professionals generally recognize that incentive programs that address behaviors without also recognizing performance

You know your middle schooler s proficiency and progress best. With your help, your middle schooler will move from basic to intermediate to advanced mastery in these skills. How will you recognize success in reading, writing, listening, and speaking for social interaction Consider these accomplishments. 

In light of the probable failure rate for new projects, which is over 90%, project goals also need to be realistic, meaning that if what the project team seeks is for some reason unachievable, they can then report that fact rather than bury their heads in the sand and waste resources on what clearly cannot be done. Determining that the project has reached a dead end would be considered a victory nonetheless. According to Dr Cynthia Robbins-Roth, an industry consultant and keen observer, The need to kill projects in a timely fashion is as crucial as recognizing success. ...

Equation (2.61) predicts a 3.5-power dependence of viscosity on molecular weight, amazingly close to the observed 3.4-power dependence. In this respect the model is a success. Unfortunately, there are other mechanical properties of highly entangled molecules in which the agreement between the Bueche theory and experiment are less satisfactory. Since we have not established the basis for these other criteria, we shall not go into specific details. It is informative to recognize that Eq. (2.61) contains many of the same factors as Eq. (2.56), the Debye expression for viscosity, which we symbolize t . If we factor the Bueche expression so as to separate the Debye terms, we obtain... 

Early marketing efforts for spunbonded fabrics centered on their substitution for existing, ie, woven, textile fabrics. Generally, success was achieved ia areas where only fiinctionahty was important. Extremely slow progress has occurred ia areas where textile-like aesthetics are required. Nevertheless, spunbonded fabrics are recognized as a unique class of materials within the general category of nonwoven fabrics (see Nonwoven fabrics, staple fibers). 

Photochemical technology has been developed so as to increasingly exploit inorganic and organometaUic photochemistries (2,7), recognizing the importance of photoinduced electron transfer as the phenomenological basis of a majority of commercially successful photochemical technologies (5,8). 

These pioneers understood the interplay between chemical equiUbrium and reaction kinetics indeed, Haber s research, motivated by the development of a commercial process, helped to spur the development of the principles of physical chemistry that account for the effects of temperature and pressure on chemical equiUbrium and kinetics. The ammonia synthesis reaction is strongly equiUbrium limited. The equiUbrium conversion to ammonia is favored by high pressure and low temperature. Haber therefore recognized that the key to a successful process for making ammonia from hydrogen and nitrogen was a catalyst with a high activity to allow operation at low temperatures where the equiUbrium is relatively favorable. 

Rectification accounts for systematic measurement error. During rectification, measurements that are systematically in error are identified and discarded. Rectification can be done either cyclically or simultaneously with reconciliation, and either intuitively or algorithmically. Simple methods such as data validation and complicated methods using various statistical tests can be used to identify the presence of large systematic (gross) errors in the measurements. Coupled with successive elimination and addition, the measurements with the errors can be identified and discarded. No method is completely reliable. Plant-performance analysts must recognize that rectification is approximate, at best. Frequently, systematic errors go unnoticed, and some bias is likely in the adjusted measurements. 

Technology transfer is a critical step in ensuring project success. The client must recognize that each toller is different in regard to how they progress from the laboratory to a test run to production. The toller selection step should have revealed that each candidate company possessed different levels of skill, experience and management culture.
