| Abstract: | This study reports a single time-series quasi-experiment in a Canadian firm to evaluate the effect of a five-year period of implementing a structured, seven-step strategy to obtain improved organization performance through employee-centered management. A significant change in the condition of the human organization resulting from the intervention was measured over the five-year period and shown to be correlated with a 66%increase in profitability. The results of the study indicate that in the Canadian/U.S. context, employee-centered management is at least compatible with high performance and competitive advantage. |
