Human-Centric Approaches to the Study of Forest Operations: A Review and Integration of Organizational Science Research Areas
2015
Overview
Prior research has shed important light on a variety of factors associated with timber harvesting efficiency and costs. However, the understandings that have resulted from this work have mostly focused on nonoperator factors, such as stand and tract conditions, machine types and configurations, and other technology-based aspects. The intent of this article is to help expand research on forest operations to include more explicit focus on operator factors that influence harvesting efficiency and costs. To accomplish this goal, we review several research areas in the organizational sciences (knowledge-based perspectives, motivation, and team effectiveness), discuss their relevance to forest operations, and list a number of important future research questions.
