Project title
Optimizing the Performance of Construction Professionals through a Proactive Organisational Stress Management Model (Jan 2007 – Dec. 2008)
supported by CERG, Hong Kong Special Administration Region
Abstract:
For current
organisations to survive and grow, construction companies require innovative
technical and analytical input from C-Ps. The pressures associated with
competition, time and environmental concerns, allied to uncertainty which
is characteristic of organisational change in a dynamic marketing situation,
place a lot of stress on C-Ps. The research aims to enhance the stress
management of C-Ps through an Organizational Stress Management (OSM) model
in construction firms. The operational objectives are to identify organizational
coping strategies and organizational performance and construct Organizational
Stress-performance relationships (Organizational coping strategies, Stressors,
Stress and Performance) for C-Ps.
