Using three key factors (industry capital intensity, industry growth, and industry product differentiation) determines how much high-performance work practices could affect bottom-line productivity of an individual company.

Such industries include computers, process control instruments, medical instruments, pharmaceuticals, telecommunications apparatus, and other growing industries in which companies are innovating and creating differentiated brands.

ages, across all income brackets and regions. Regionally, discontent is the
lowest in New England and West South Central regions.
