Many managers who need to estimate efficiency and effectiveness of jobs and employees often feel confused trying to understand task efficiency and task self-efficacy. Here are definitions for these terms:
- Task efficiency is a performance indicator that shows a ration between planned and actual values relative to a certain task or job.
- Task self-efficacy is a projection of a person's belief, readiness and abilities to produce a definite level of performance or achieve certain goals. Task self-efficacy scale will depend on the person's abilities and readiness to do some task or job.
The definitions show that two terms are not the same. At the same time, they have some similarities. Both task efficiency and task self-efficacy refers to a measurable outcome which can be a product or service.
