INFLUENCE OF EMPLOYEES PARTICIPATION IN DECISION MAKING ON ORGANIZATION PERFORMANCE: A STUDY OF LADOKE AKINTOLA UNIVERSITY OF TECHNOLOGY TEACHING HOSPITAL, OGBOMOSO, OYO STATE, NIGERIA
ABSTRACT
This study examines the influence of employees’ participation in decision making on organization performance with particular reference to Ladoke Akintola University of Technology (LAUTECH) Teaching Hospital, Ogbomoso, Oyo State, Nigeria. Purposive random sampling technique was used to select Ladoke Akintola University of Technology Teaching Hospital, Ogbomoso Oyo State, Nigeria, while simple random sampling method was used to select two hundred and five (205) respondents. Data were sourced via a structured questionnaire and frequency, percentage, means, standard deviation and linear regression analysis were employed to analyze the data. Results reveal that both direct participation and representative participation have positive and significant impact on organizational performance.
Furthermore, results indicate that level of employees’ participation in decision making in Ladoke Akintola University of Technology Teaching Hospital, Ogbomoso is very low due to unwillingness of management to share decision-making with employees. The study therefore concludes that employees’ participation in decisions making is an alternative paradigm to organization performance. Subsequently, the study recommends that employees should be allowed to make contribution in policy development as they play a major role in policy implementation and this among others will increase organizational performance.
