Dr. Russell Hassan wins the Charles H. Levine Award
Dr. Russell Hassan, an assistant professor at the John Glenn School of Public Affairs, won the Charles H. Levine Award for Best Conference Paper in public and non-profit management at this year’s Academy of Management Conference for his paper The Role of Effective Leadership on Turnover in Workgroups: Evidence from Government Agency.
The paper looks at whether managers can reduce the adverse effects of role ambiguity perceived by employees in government agencies. The study examined how manager role clarification enhances overall work satisfaction and reduce actual turnover in workgroups in a government agency. The results, which could have implications for effective human resource management at government agencies, indicated that clarifying work duties and performance expectations enhance overall work satisfaction and reduce turnover rates.
This is not the first Academy of Management award won by Dr. Hassan. In 2011 he was awarded the Carlo Masini Award for outstanding scholarship in the fields of public and non-profit management for the paper Affective Commitment and Variability in the Organizational Climate of Government Offices he co-wrote with Dr. John Rohrbaugh.
