Effective staffing v/s Efficient staffing – What is more needed in today's business world.

Abstract

Effective and Efficient – are commonly used terms in management studies. Both seems to be similar. However, there is a striking difference between these two. Think of how many tasks you complete in a single day, from households chores to completing a report at work. We have many tasks to complete and there are always more than one ways to complete a single task. When one learns how to complete task faster and save his time and resources, there he embraces efficiency. However, if we take an example of a restaurant cook, whose customers are in queue waiting for their order. The only objective of the cook at that time would be delivering the order at right time, no matter how much of waste stuff of different ingredients is being released out of his profuse use of them. There, his capability to satisfy the demand of customers in the given time is his effectiveness".
