360-degree feedback with systematic coaching: Empirical analysis suggests a winning combination

HUMAN RESOURCE MANAGEMENT, Issue 3 2003
Fred Luthans
Wanted: High-performance work practices to gain a competitive advantage. An increasingly common answer to this desperate call is 360-degree programs; unfortunately, they have, at best, mixed reviews when empirically assessed. This study found that a way to improve the effectiveness of 360s may be to combine them with coaching focused on enhanced self-awareness and behavioral management. In a small manufacturer, this feedback-coaching resulted in improved manager and employee satisfaction, commitment, intentions to turnover, and at least indirectly, this firm's performance. This feedback-coaching may be a winning combination to help in the competitive battles in today's global economy. © 2004 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. [source]

Dual optical bus for efficient aggregation and backhauling networks and potential extensions

BELL LABS TECHNICAL JOURNAL, Issue 4 2010
François Dorgeuille
Packet-optical transport (P-OT) systems and platforms are currently offering a proposed answer to the short term carrier needs in terms of efficient triple play service backhauling and aggregation. This paper deals with the dual optical bus, an additional alternative that features tighter integration between the packet and optical layers. After introducing the optical bus concept and discussing its enabling related mechanisms, we focus on one implementation designed for backhauling and aggregation networks, the dual bus optical ring network (DBORN). Original benchmarking results, with legacy solutions and other alternatives, highlight the winning combination of packet statistical multiplexing, passive optics, and multicast capabilities presented by the dual optical bus. The last part of the paper introduces and discusses potential extensions and challenges relying on the dual optical bus integration in photonic reconfigurable networks including ROADMs. © 2010 Alcatel-Lucent.
