Abstract


Competition analysis is the most critical aspect of any business. Because the organizations should consider and categorize many business environmental factors into influential and highly influential. Competition becomes as an influential element whenever the organization achieves a significant level of human resource efficiency i.e. optimization. Organizational competition environment is always dynamic with the existing and new players. Being ahead and to sustain in the ever changing competitive business world the organization's has to focus on optimizing 'resource utilization'. This phenomenon may be apt to non human resources but whereas human resources, still considered as an experimental area and the age old contributions in the form of theories and strategies of human resource management unable to fill gap or match with the present organizational requirements. In this regard the personality factor role is imperative. The present paper is an attempt to explore the concept 'employee efficiency optimization' with in-depth discussions on the impact of personality issues on the human resource transformations from competition survival to leading the business environment and devising strategies for managing human resources through personality factor consideration apparatus, ultimately to notify its impressions on organizational milieu.
