    Notes: This paper studies differences in job satisfaction and intrinsic work motivation between employees with different characteristics. Based on a study of the literature assumptions regarding these differences are developed and tested on data from a survey in the Nordic countries. In this survey 9,623 employees from randomly selected households in the Nordic countries participated. Among the findings are that Danish workers were found to be the most satisfied and that there is no difference between the genders with respect to job satisfaction in the Nordic countries.

    Notes: This paper examines the criterion weights of the EFQM excellence model. More and more research indicates that the official criterion weights from EFQM do not correspond with the way companies are working. This, of course, raises the question whether or not it makes any sense to compare companies according to an arbitrary weight structure, which has never been empirically tested? In this paper the criterion weights are estimated through the use of a factor scores regression based on confirmatory factor analysis of a number of bootstrapped samples. This estimation procedure is applied on data collected among Danish companies which responded to a self-assessment questionnaire covering the EFQM excellence model in each of the years 1998-2001. The overall conclusions are that the allocation of weights is fairly stable for most of the criteria except for one. The weight allocated to "People results" is significantly lower in 2001 than in 1999 and 1998.

    Notes: This paper examines the weight structure of the EFQM excellence model. This is done through a survey among 756 chief executive officers from Danish companies who responded to a self-assessment questionnaire. The data from this survey have been analysed through factor score regression based on confirmatory factor analysis on 5,000 bootstrapped samples. The analysis shows that the perceived criterion weights vary from the current allocation in the EFQM excellence model. This deviation is so substantial that the allocation of weights between the enabler and the result block vary considerably from the actual allocation in the EFQM excellence model. Furthermore, it seems as if Danish companies perceive the enabler criteria as equally important but this is not the case for the result criteria.

    Notes: Based on a review of the literature within the field of job satisfaction and organizational commitment this paper proposes a generic model for measuring employee perceptions. The model consists of seven latent constructs operationalised through 29 manifest indicators. This model is subsequently tested on data from a questionnaire survey to which approximately 9,600 employees from the Nordic countries responded. The statistical technique applied for this analysis is partial least squares (PLS), which is well suited for structural equation modelling when the focus is on prediction. The results support the structure of the suggested generic model but reveals differences between the Nordic countries with regard to strength of the relationships as well as the average case value of the seven latent constructs.

    Notes: This paper analyses the differences between private and public sector organisations in Denmark in relation to the penetration of holistic management models, how companies achieve excellent results and the empirical weight structure of the European Foundation for Quality Management (EFQM) excellence model. The results show that the penetration of holistic management models is greater among public organisations. Furthermore private and public organisations do not achieve excellent results in the same way. Private companies put higher emphasis on the systems dimension whereas public organisations put higher emphasis on the people dimension. In relation to the empirical weight structure of the EFQM excellence model two significant differences were found. Private companies put higher emphasis on the criteria "leadership" and "policy and strategy" than public organisations.
