...manage it has become a critical issue. The recent global financial crisis served as a reminder that risk management and how the same is practiced is fundamental if performance objectives are to be consistentlyachieved. It has emerged that as business owners and managers strive to improve and sustain performance they are now also required to consider what risk management practices their organizations have adopted to avoid falling short of their strategic objectives. This is even more so in the financial services sector which was the most affected during the recent financial crisis. The objectives of this study were to analyze the risk management practices undertaken by Commercial Banks in Kenya and to determine and assess the effect of these risk management practices on their financial performance. The risks facing financial institutions are mainly classified into; strategic, operational, credit and market risks. In managing these risks, the risk management approach adopted by the owners and/or management was influenced by the organizational culture and support, whether or not risk management is integrated in the setting of organizational objectives, whether there is a documented risk management policy or framework, how the risk identification process is conducted, the risk analysis process, evaluation and treatment of risk; risk monitoring and review; and last but not least ensuring that there is effective risk management. In order to carry out the study primarily data was obtained...

...Dave 06/09/13 Phase 3 IP Performance Management System Overview The accounting firm is responsible for the structure and completion of all components of a performance management system. To obtain organizational goals, performance management is a structured process of ensuring that a company’s employee’s personal work load and performance is being put forth to achieve productivity and benefit the company to uphold toward meeting the organizational goals and challenges. Strategic measures can be set to achieve the goals of the organization and to set alignment with what the organization is striving to achieve such as setting self achievable goals, the corporate goals, as well as department goals. (Roberts, A.) There is also an administrative standpoint, which relates performance appraisals from the outcome of the performance overview with supporting information which eventually determines the salary increases to be set forth, or benefits and recognition programs such as incentives or cash pay outs for a job well done. After the performance overview is completed there is a final step, which includes areas of improvement to benefit the company through future training and development in which areas the employee lacks. Within my current company, we refer to our performance management system as a Performance Management Process (PMP). Each quarter, our management sits down with all his/ her employees to engage with them on their personal performance being put forth. The first quarter...

...management control system targets. Therefore, conventional management control systems focus on getting better operational efficiency. But as operational efficiency is no longer adequate to create sustainable competitive advantages, management control systems must be expanded to managerial practices that cultivate employee cooperation and creativeness in the discovery and development of new business opportunities. This is especially the case in the high-tech industries that are at the faced with the challenges of globalisation and employee teams must combine efficient communication with creativity. ``Project managers and product designers in software and other industries thus need to find ways to divide up products and tasks so that even teams of many of clever people can work and communicate efficiently as well as creatively'' (Cusumano, 1997). Simons (1987 and 1990) argued that control systems is in four categories, namely i. ii. iii. iv. Diagnostic control systems Boundary control systems Interactive systems Belief systems. These four different management control systems are identified recently by companies as effective categories of controlling system, companies must apply them in a way that maximizes operational effectiveness without limiting employee creativity. This task can be accomplished by using diagnostic measures as a way to improve operational effectiveness and the other three types of control measures as a way to mitigate its negative effects on employee creativity...

...Academy of Management Executive. May99, Vol. 13 Issue 2, p37-48. 12p. 2 Black and White Photographs, 1 Chart. Abstract: There's a disturbing disconnect in organizational management. Research, experience, and common sense all increasingly point to a direct relationship between a company's financial success and its commitment to management practices that treat people as assets. Yet trends in management practice are actually moving away from these very principles. Why is common sense so remarkably uncommon when it comes to managing people? Why do organizations habitually overlook readily available opportunities to boost their financial performance? Drawing on extensive empirical research, an irrefutable business case can be made that the culture and capabilities of an organization, derived from the way it manages its people, are the real and enduring sources of competitive advantage. Managers today must begin to take seriously the often heard, yet frequently ignored, adage that "people are our most important asset" [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] DOI: 10.5465/AME.1999.1899547.

...Maximizing Your Return on People New tools can show you which investments in employees are driving company performance now and which you should emphasize to advance your strategic goals. by Laurie Bassi and Daniel McMurrer M J.D. King ANAGERS ARE FOND OF THE MAXIM “Employees are our most important asset.” Yet beneath the rhetoric, too many executives still regard – and manage – employees as costs. That’s dangerous because, for many companies, people are the only source of long-term competitive advantage. Companies that fail to invest in employees jeopardize their own success and even survival. In part, this practice has lingered for lack of alternatives. Until recently, there simply weren’t robust methods for measuring the bottom-line contributions of investments in human capital management (HCM) – things like leadership development, job design, and knowledge sharing. That’s changed. Over the past decade, we have worked with colleagues worldwide to develop a system for assessing HCM, predicting organizational performance, and guiding organizations’ investments in people. hbr.org | March 2007 | Harvard Business Review 115 TOOL KIT | Maximizing Your Return on People Using the framework we describe here has the obvious and immediate practical benefit of improving organizational performance. More broadly, though, as the links between people and performance come into focus, organizations will also begin to appreciate the long-term value of investments in...

...THE REWARD SYSTEM BIANCA SANDERS HR 423 COMPENSATION MANAGEMENT Compensation and Reward system plays vital role in a business organization. Since, among four Ms, i.e. Men, Material, Machine and Money, Men has been most important factor, it is impossible to imagine a business process without Men. Every factor contributes to the process of production/business. It expects return from the business process such as rent is the return expected by the landlord, capitalist expects interest and organizer i.e. entrepreneur expects profits. Similarly the labor expects wages from the process. * An ideal compensation system will have positive impact on the efficiency and results produced by employees. It will encourage the employees to perform better and achieve the standards fixed. * It will enhance the process of job evaluation. It will also help in setting up an ideal job evaluation and the set standards would be more realistic and achievable. * Such a system should be well defined and uniform. It will be apply to all the levels of the organization as a general system. * The system should be simple and flexible so that every employee would be able to compute his own compensation receivable. * It should be easy to implement, should not result in exploitation of workers. * It will raise the morale, efficiency and cooperation among the workers. It, being just and fair would provide satisfaction...
