Personnel Portfolio and Communication — •Magda Schiegl — Cologne University of Applied Sciences, Köln, Germany

Most of the successive companies develop employee strategies. They perform empirical studies to learn more about the employees they will have and they need in the future to meet upcoming challenges of their business.

We model the personnel portfolio of a company as an agent based model. The agents correspond to the employees of the company. They are characterised by several internal parameters as for instance age, sex, seniority, salary, motivation and the level of education. The agents interact with each other an on hierarchical levels. There are deterministic rules for the time dynamics of some internal variables and others are changed in a rule based probabilistic way. Depending on the values of their internal parameters the agents will change their motivation, leave the company, retire or stay with the company. New agents can be hired. The focus in our model is on the interaction of the single agents, groups and the whole company that influences the motivation via communication and collaboration on different levels of the organisational structure. The agents' motivation is spread across the organisation: Its time dynamics is modelled via the concept of fields. This concept is often used in the field of socio-economic-physics. We investigate the dynamics of the personnel portfolio: The number of employees and the distribution of the internal parameters. On this basis communication and personnel strategies are evaluated and discussed.
