Abstract
A work period scheduler includes one or more data processors configured to receive performance data relating to the performance of one or more individual workers from a database. The performance data is then analyzed to identify one or more workers as a leader, a leader being a worker whose presence in a group of the individual workers results in an improvement in overall performance of said group. Work periods, e.g. shifts, may then be scheduled based on one or more skills attributed to one or more workers wherein the one or more skills includes leader.
