With the fierce competition, how to outperform in the global marketplace has become more and more difficult. It is important for managers to have creativity and problem-solving capability to copy with problems in the dynamic environment. Therefore, this study would like to develop a scale which can evaluate mangers’ analytic thinking and conceptual thinking capabilities. It is expected that the scale can be a useful index which helps the firm recruit suitable employees and managers based on their personality and thus create more values for firms. This study is targeted to investigate that if there are any differences on analytic thinking and conceptual thinking between managers and non-managers among difference industries, positions by using T-test and ANOVA. The findings of this study are shown as follows. First, there are significant differences between managers and non-managers on analytical thinking and conceptual thinking. Second, in technology, traditional and service industries, there are insignificant differences between managers and non-managers on analytical thinking. Third, in technical departments, there are significant differences between managers and non-managers on analytical thinking and conceptual thinking.

There is a global trend to utilize various projects for better work performance and the project oriented work packages have been widely observed in different organizations and industries. Even in the school organizations, projects and project management methodology have been regarded as a solution to break the bottleneck of the traditional administration process. However, project managers and participants were generally not able to well understand the characteristics of school projects and the interactive in-fluences from project variables, such as work loading, available human resources, work schedule and relevant quality standards. Thus, the aforementioned dynamic complex-ity of school projects can cause project failures. By using systems thinking, this study proposes a causal loop diagram to analyze the school evaluation projects, which can assist project participants to better understand the interactive relationships between different project variables so that the problem can be properly handled. For the purpose of case study, a questionnaire survey on a school evaluation has been conducted on the high school and college level to analyze the in-herent challenges and solutions in a benchmarked school project.

The nation’s aging index has exceeded 100 for the first time in March 2017,and the number of people in Taiwan 65 and over is increasing to 3,139,397,highlighting the severity of the aging population problem. Among this older population, about 500,000 or 16 percent , reported having one or more disabilities. Future trends, especially the growth of the elderly population, are expected to affect significantly the provision of long-term care institutions. The institutions deal mainly with older people who need long-term care. They provide skilled nursing care, rehabilitation services, meals, activities, help with daily living, and supervision. Quality of care in long term-care institutions is a major issue for which there is no simple solution. In this study, it explores the interference variables of service quality in long term-care institutions through semi-structured interviews with 5 different long term-care institutions managers , then four importance factors were identified. And systems thinking architectural analysis was used to identify relationships between the factors, service quality and satisfaction. The models of shifting the burden feedback loop and the limits to growth feedback loop provide frameworks for the integration of service quality improvement strategies. And allow the managers make the decisions like update the construction equipment and assistive technology, strengthen the care-giving workforce, implement creative training course of elderly care , set up the hierarchical license system, reduce the foreign worker numbers in the institutions ,concern the cost-effectiveness analysis and balance sheet etc,to improve the service quality effectively.

Full textResearch into the cognitive effects of management accounting and control systems is largely oriented toward understanding how decision makers use accounting information to inform their judgement and decision making activity. However, the effect of these systems on decision making is not limited to the provision of information; instead, management accounting and control systems may influence decision makers’ underlying mental representations, which in turn form a critical input to judgement and decision making in an organisational context. As such, the objective of this thesis is to explore and then explain how the use of management control systems relates to the development of a type of mental representation: managers’ causal mental models. In order to answer this question, I undertake a qualitative embedded case study of a medium-sized residential aged care service provider in Australia, incorporating specific Cognitive Task Analysis (CTA) techniques to elicit the causal mental models of individual study participants. First, I draw on theory and concepts from cognitive psychology to develop the construct of causal mental models for application in an accounting context. I then develop a general theoretical model which identifies the conditions under which the use of management control systems is likely to lead to changes in the causal mental models of either senior and/or operational managers, and provides an explanation of the mediating relationship between management control systems and managerial judgement and decision making activity. This conceptual and methodological development allows for the direct observation of the content and composition of causal mental models, and the development and testing of more nuanced hypotheses relating the use of management accounting and control systems to judgement and decision making outcomes, and ultimately, to managerial and organisational performance. Second, I apply and extend the general theoretical model in order to develop an explanation of the underlying socio-cognitive dynamics of Simons’ (1987) concept of interactive control. Specifically, I explain why the interactive use of control systems would facilitate learning and contribute to improved managerial cognition and performance, and use the theoretical explanations that I generate to evaluate the conflicting conceptualisations of the interactive control construct present in the literature. I find that all five dimensions of interactive control identified by Bisbe, Batista-Foguet and Chenhall (2007) are required for interactive control to have the hypothesised effects on managerial learning and organisational performance, and provide support for their position that interactive control should be treated as a multidimensional, emergent construct. Third, I apply my general theoretical model to the phenomenon of budget participation, in order to develop a cognitive explanation of the effects of participation on managerial cognition and capacity for judgement and decision making. Application of the theoretical model to the phenomenon of budget participation generated a set of three specific explanations: first, it suggests an expanded definition of participation is necessary to completely capture the potential of budgeting for information sharing and coordination; second, it explains the theoretical value of conceptualising job-relevant information in terms of the components of managers’ causal mental models; and third, it explains both how and why budget participation can facilitate the transfer of causal knowledge and beliefs between levels of management.
