摘要
Employee empowerment is an essential managerial means that can be used to obtain competitive advantages from human resources in the new, millennium. A comprehensive understanding of the essence of empowerment is crucial to facilitate its effective implementation. In this article, the author proposes a 4-dimensional empowerment model in an organizational setting and a matrix that incorporates the 4 dimensions and the 7S (R. H. Waterman, T. J. Peters, & J. R. Phillips, 1980) organizational factors. In addition; this study represents an empirical examination of the effects of personal and company characteristics on empowerment. The implications of the research results are discussed.
