Challenges of Leadership in Industrial Ergonomics Projects

Abstract

Endüstriyel işbilimi projelerinin yönetimi (EİP) etkin liderlik gerektirmektedir. Endüstriyel işbiliminin çok yönlü ve çok yüzlü olması EİP liderlerini çok sayıda meydan okumalara zorunlu kılmıştır. Bu çalışmada, EİP liderliğinin yoğun bir şekilde savaş vermesine, işbiliminin disiplinler arası bir bilim oluşuna, çalışanların eğitimin azlığı ve öğretim gereksinimlerine, iş bilimi sürecinin basitleştirilmesine, etkin ve etken katılımla etkileşimli iletişim kavramlarına açıklık getirilmiştir
