Question

You are happy to see that today's Productivity results relative to goal are trending positively overall; however, you want to focus on really improving one team over the next four hours of your shift. Based on examining the last three hours, which team should you focus on to most positively impact your area's overall results

Answer 1

If I were to choose, I'd go for Team 4.

Step-by-step explanation:

• Team 1 is currently on an upward trend with the fastest improvement in their overall productivity moving from 92% to 103%, an 11.9% growth in 6 hours;

• Team 2 had a slight recession but by the end of the 6 hour period were almost back where they started at 104%, a 1.9% decline. Given that they are still back on an upward trend, I'd give them little or not energy as their 6-hour performance has been the most consistent overall;
• Team 3 started their performance at 95% and plummetted from then to about 90%, a regressed performance of about 5.3%
• Team 4 went from 103% to 91%, an 11.7% decline in performance.

So given that team 4 has the potential to revert back to, at the very least the starting performance of 103%, and that they have the highest rate of decline in performance, I'd focus on them to improve the overall performance of teams.

Cheers!
