Adaptive performance in the work environment refers to adjusting to and understanding change in the workplace.〔Pulakos, E. D., Arad, S., Donovan, M. A., & Plamondon, K. E. (2000). Adaptability in the workplace: development of a taxonomy of adaptive performance. Journal of Applied Psychology, 85(4), 612-624.〕 An employee who is versatile is valued and important in the success of an organization. Employers seek employees with high adaptability, due to the positive outcomes that follow, such as excellent work performance, work attitude, and ability to handle stress.〔Leiz, Niessan, Swarowsky. “Age and adaptation to changes in the workplace”. Journal of Managerial Psychology. 2009, p. 356-383.〕 Employees, who display high adaptive performance in an organization, tend to have more advantages in career opportunities unlike employees who are not adaptable to change.〔 In previous literature, Pulakos and colleagues〔 established eight dimensions of adaptive performance. == Dimensions == Pulakos et al.〔 proposed the following dimensions for adaptive performance: *Handling emergencies and crisis situations: making quick decisions when faced with an emergency. *Handling stress in the workforce: keeping composed and focused on task at hand when dealing with high demand tasks *Creative problem solving: thinking outside the boundary limits, and innovatively to solve a problem. *Dealing with uncertain and unpredictable work situations: able to become productive despite the occurrence of unknown situations. *Learning and manipulating new technology, task, and procedures: approach new methods and technological constructs in order to accomplish a work task. *Demonstrating interpersonal adaptability: being considerate of other people’s points of view when working in a team to accomplish a certain goal. *Demonstrating cultural adaptability: being respectful and considerate of different cultural backgrounds. *Demonstrating physically oriented adaptability: physically adjusting one’s self to better fit the surrounding environment. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Adaptive performance」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
