Results from Organizational Development Interventions in a Technology Call Center.
Workman, Michael
Human Resource Development Quarterly, v14 n2 p215-30 Sum 2003
Call center staff answered calls in 4 treatments: alignment job design (n=35), autonomous work teams (n=35), high-involvement work processes (n=43), and controls (n=36). Job satisfaction improved in alignment job design and high-involvement treatments, most significantly in the latter. Skill level and attitude toward autonomous work might have influenced outcomes.
