A Profile of Management Problems in the Navy

Abstract

This study is conducted in conjunction with a project on Improved Personnel Utilization conducted by the Naval Personnel Research and Development Center, San Diego. Its purpose is to empirically identify Navy management problems which have a significant impact on morale and the effectiveness with which objectives are met. Of particular interest in this study is the identification of salient problem characteristics and situational variables. Management case studies collected by Professor Wm. Howard Church have been classified and analyzed. Quantitative analysis of the case evaluations includes a factor analysis of the antecedents and the manifestations of the management problem, and a stratification of problem attributes by situational variables.
