| Abstract: | An application of utility analysis concepts, a quasi-experimental design is employed to demonstrate the effects of a training program in supervisory skills on the performance ratings of 65 bank supervisors. The utility formula presented by Schmidt, Hunter and Perlman are expanded, incorporating economic considerations suggested by Boudreau in a time-based framework. Results indicated considerable dollar benefit to the organization from training supervisors. The utility formula was modified to permit examination of influences of adjusting various parameters of the model. |
