From the Paper:

"Whereas it is apparent that training implications and concerns are needed for Internal threat/ shrinkage, a lot of OBM practitioners undertake an assessment prior to interfering, the details of such evaluations do not find coverage in writing. It is important to conduct an organizational functional assessment before intervention to find out variables responsible for maintaining cash shortages, and an intervention package comprising of feedback and responsibility was implemented based on the outcomes of the evaluation. The impact of the intervention package was assessed with an ABAB reversal design. At the time of baseline, daily cash shortages averaged $2.27. When the feedback and accountability package was executed, average cash shortages were lowered to $0.06 daily. A rise in average daily cash shortage to $7.78 was observed at the time when the intervention package was taken away. At the time when the feedback and accountability package was reinstated, average daily cash shortages lowered to $0.19. The outcomes of the present study recommend that novice practitioners can successfully use organizational functional assessment in order to diagnose and rectify performance problems. (Rohn; Austin; Lutrey, 2002)"
