Human and Organizational Performance
                     Human and Organizational 
Performance
Every day, we make thousands of decisions. From picking out what to wear in the 
morning to deciding which movie to see on a Friday night, countless choices are 
made every day.
All these choices lead up to our personality and attitude towards life; it is this 
personality that determines why we choose certain things over others and how we 
do them.
This style of decision-making has not escaped people in work situations: 
managers and employees alike must make choices every single day about how 
they will accomplish their tasks at hand.
These "task performance" decisions can be attributed to many factors including 
intelligence levels, motivation levels, personal motivation, attitudes towards work, 
or even just preferences for completing tasks in particular ways.

Human Performance refers to the ability of a person or group of people to 
complete a task or series of tasks effectively and efficiently. This includes factors 
such as physical abilities, cognitive abilities, emotional states, and environmental 
conditions
Organizational Performance on the other hand is typically defined as the 
effectiveness and efficiency of an organization as a whole. This takes into account 
measures such as product quality of output, customer satisfaction, employee 
satisfaction, and so on.
A new study has found that the way managers and employees make decisions 
about doing tasks has a significant effect on how well they perform those tasks. In 
short, our choices for what we do have an impact on how well we do it
To determine how task performance can be improved through making better task-
related choices, researchers from the University of Minnesota and the University 
of North Carolina studied data from a variety of organizations all over the world in 
different types of industries.
Their results were compiled into a report that explains that workers have more 
control over their motivation than was previously thought - therefore being able to 
choose to empower themselves or not will directly affect their job performance as 
well as satisfaction levels
The study also provides insight as to why there is often a disconnect between 
what employees desire in their work and what they are given. Employees often 
feel powerless to change their situation, but the study's results suggest that 
employees do have some control over their motivation and task performance
