= Organizational Productivity and Performance leading to Sustainability =

Productivity
Simply defined, productivity is the result divided by the input. In other words, it assesses how effectively a company's production inputs, such as labor and capital, are utilized to generate a particular amount of output .Increasing the workforce is critical for increasing profit productivity. This necessitates effective human resource management and resource optimization. Conscious resource use, which is a sustainable habit that would boost production. Company revenue growth and improvement of productivity are closely connected. Without improving productivity, a firm cannot achieve a quicker profit rate. Just as income growth has to be preserved if a serious impact is to be achieved, sustainable development with greater productivity must be guaranteed in all business sectors. It is always simpler to obtain short-term benefits at the price of long-term development for sometime, but hasty solutions do not create a real basis for long-term productivity improvement.

Effectiveness should be prioritized in all organizational productivity concerns. Doing the right things is characterized as being effective. Top-level decisions must guarantee that almost all of the company's objectives support the goals, which in turn serve your mission.

When a company has employees who are doing the right thing, it can ensure that they're doing right thing. And it should not be done brusquely. Employee goals should be attainable, realistic, and long-term. Company should  Examine all staff tasks to see if there is a better method to complete them in a sustainable manner. It is necessary to seek more efficient ways to complete tasks through automation, improved channels of communication, plus physical space reorganization.

With core principles in place, any organization may enhance productivity. some of the ways to implement this are  this are higher sales commissions beyond the existing levels, incentives for achieving greater production targets, and wagering improvements in ongoing productivity. If motivations are available, employees will design their own techniques to become far more productive and appropriate.

Performance
The capacity of a firm to achieve maximum commercial income from the material and human resources at its command is described as performance. Businesses require effective performance management. It assists them in aligning their personnel, assets, and processes to fulfill their strategic goals either through formally or informally. It also serves as a radar, alerting management to potential issues and letting them know whenever they need to make changes to keep the firm on course. The basic notion of “what gets measured gets executed” underpins effective performance management. A firm should develop measurements and targets out of its top-level stated priorities down to the everyday actions of its frontline personnel in an ideal scenario. Managers keep a close eye on such indicators and communicate with their employees on a regular basis to review progress toward reaching the goals. Good performance is acknowledged, whereas poor performance prompts appropriate action In today's quickly dynamic and challenging world, typical business performance management and assessment systems, such as profitability and rate of return, are inadequate for making decisions. Critics are blamed for the traditional financial indicators system which focusses more on short-term than long-term results than on future results.

To improve performance, a performance management system should be created that takes human factors into account. Employees should receive KPI s that they can achieve. Leaders are critical in developing a performance culture, and sustainability should be incorporated into the performance management system.

Opportunities and challenges of effectively and efficiently managing productivity and performance
There is always a challenge when businesses prioritize performance and production over workers. It won't help the growth and reputation sustainable organization. The performance and productivity management system and solutions must be tailored to the organization's particular requirements. It must not be a copy of a system created and deployed in some other business. For a sustainable system to be implemented smoothly, leadership commitment and support are required. Leaders should lead the effort and integrate organizational performance into overall corporate management. They also help to keep the productivity cycle going by rewarding employees good work.

There are several opportunities in managing productivity and performance effectively and efficiently. One thing is that implementing more regular evaluations, whether public or private, can aid in properly understanding individuals' skill sets. Offering a continual open platform for employees to understand and share their tasks can assist in detecting training needs before they have an effect on productivity. Another point to consider is that "happy employees are productive employees." The majority of employees would perform more if they thought their efforts were appreciated. A salary check is no longer sufficient form of acknowledgment; instead, frequent feedback and reviews seem critical to sustaining employee morale, which further contributes to the organization's long-term sustainability and will increase employee retention .Frequent employee evaluations as part of a larger performance management approach can also aid in workforce planning. Addressing current and prospective workloads with individuals might aid in identifying potential for future staff. The organization can capitalize on the chances in improving the reputation, brand value and processes of efficiencies.

Continuous performance management (CPM) is a contemporary, human-centered method to promoting, assessing, and enhancing employee performance. It helps your business to foster a trustworthy atmosphere in which workers enjoy working to direct their own growth which is also sustainable in human aspect. Three fundamental ideas underpin CPM.


 * 1) The first step is to assign short-term performance goals that are achievable to all workers. This will ensure that they are always striving towards it. These goals will typically have a one to three month time frame, but they can be long term. And they should be in line with the organization's long-term objectives. According to studies, firms or organizations who utilize this technique and evaluate their objectives on a monthly basis are twice as likely to be in top of financial success. These goals will typically have a one to three month time frame, but they may be long term. According to studies, firms or organizations who utilize this technique are twice as likely to be in top of financial success.
 * 2) The second is to provide immediate feedback to staff. That is also a sustainable practice that falls under the category of excellent communication. According to studies, individuals who receive regular feedbacks from their supervisors and peers perform much better.
 * 3) The third concept is to have employees check in with their manager on a frequent basis to review their productivity and effectiveness rather than having an evaluation once or twice a year. Employees who have regular discussions with their supervisors are three times more engaged and productive, according to studies.

Using these easy measures, a company can boost its performance and productivity to new heights. Developing a wide culture of peer evaluation and mentoring, in which all employees assist, encourage, and praise one another, has a strong and direct influence on an organization's bottom line.

Human recourse management
The spine of a firm is human resource. It is therefore very vital to manage them properly. The growing significance of people in organizational performance coincides to the global growth of Strategic Human Resource Management (SHRM) as a subject of study. There are mainly two areas to consider when managing human resources, Human resource development and Human performance Management. First one is human resource development.HR development is a fundamental component of the HR function. It expresses unequivocally that sustainability entails the growth of individual potential. Employees should participate in sustainability initiatives. They should be granted ownership. In addition, as part of their KPI, companies should include them in sustainable projects. Employees should be provided with the appropriate training. The issue of sustainable HRD focuses on the HR function (sometimes known as HR packages) and includes HR training as part of this function. which extend beyond the HR role and include, for example, teamwork, corporate culture, and top leadership support However, there are some requirements related to HRD that must be met in order to establish a sustainable company. Organizational fairness, psychological empowerment, green balance between work and personal life, organizational citizenship behavior, and job happiness are among them.

Triple Bottom Line, Performance and Productivity
When it comes to production, businesses should prioritize profitability while also reducing pollution. Because productivity is also affected by resources and materials. This has an impact on performance and profitability. The environment provides the majority of the resources for manufacturing. As a result, safeguarding it is critical for long-term viability.

Consumers are becoming more conscious of the impact that companies have on the planet, society, and economy, as well as the relevance of global problems such as global warming and social equality. Indeed, according to the 2020 Climate Change in the American Mind poll, “approximately six in ten Americans are already bothered about global warming" . If a company can use the Triple Bottom Line, it will have more chances for efficiency, innovation, and development across various areas of business. Involvement in business models that take into account people, the planet, and prosperity will eventually result in greater durability and cost savings, lower organizational risk, a reduction in unanticipated expenses, and overall increased productivity and performance.

The method through which a firm increases profits need to be more stakeholder-oriented. People are at the heart of it all. Finally, it is an issue of how to raise knowledge of the importance of sustainability inside a company. By utilizing the Triple Bottom Line approach, a company may broaden its understanding of its present economic situation as well as its capacity to exist in the future. Sustainable development assesses capacity to remain in business continuously, depending on environmental effect, community involvement, and economic output. In truth, all three criteria play a significant part in deciding if company can continue in operation and produce a profit - no individual bottom line can maintain a company.
