The complexities of employee empowerment have been largely
underestimated and it is clear that organisations struggle with
putting the concept into practice. Rozana Ahmad Huq recognises that
effective utilisation of human resources is a strategic issue for
organisations. Hierarchical organisations struggle to survive. The
growing trend for downsizing and merging of organisations means
that they can no longer maintain the 'command and control' approach
and employees are given more responsibility and expected to take
decisions. However, simply burdening employees with extra
responsibility without empowering them does not deliver results.
Drawing on her own research in organisations, Dr Huq investigates
the concept of empowerment in a new way that combines themes from
the disciplines of management and social work, the latter being a
domain where empowerment is an important construct. This helps to
bridge the gaps in knowledge in the management domain and draws
attention to the positive and negative psychological implications
for employees of the practice of empowerment that are often ignored
by leaders and managers. Ultimately, the author offers a 'practice
model' to help people in management and non-management understand
the new roles and behaviours that they need to adopt if empowerment
is to become a reality. This book is a resource for any business or
other organisation genuinely interested in employee empowerment and
for those with a responsibility for teaching about it.
