Improved productivity through implementation of an improved productivity through implementation of a manufacturing technique that emphasizes cultural and value systems of an organisation

Most manufacturing approaches and techniques, currently being used by most companies, are designed to boost productivity, sustainability, and growth. Each of these approaches uses different tools to achieve these purposes. However none of these techniques considers the effect of cultural and value systems of an organisation and how these can contribute to productivity. The present paper reports on the results of a longitudinal field study that examines how cultural and value systems of an organization affect productivity of an organization. It unpacks various manufacturing approaches and techniques and ties them to cultural and value systems. The paper offers qualitative insight into the nature of these systems, their relevance within a working environment and how they influence ordinary workers at plant level. The extent to which these systems can be applied has a bearing on productivity as proven by a case study carried out in one multinational company. It is demonstrated in this study that if these systems are well defined and well practiced, they can boost staff morale, motivation and performance. The paper concludes that a manufacturing technique that emphasizes the cultural and value systems of an organization can lead to productivity improvement.
