Some Research on Organisational Behaviour

Not too long ago I did up some research and on Organisational Behaviour just to kind of explain what exactly it means and compromises of in relation to an orgainsation and its managers. So here is the work I have come up with, its is succinct and straight to the point, not too long. 

According to Robbins, S. P.

"Organisational Behaviour is a field of study that investigates the impact that individuals, groups and structure have on behaviour within organisations, for the purpose of applying such knowledge towards improving organisation’s effectiveness"

This three-pronged relationship can be focused upon individually and would be fully effective only if all three are comprehensively covered. As the organisation and individual has the power and capacity to influence each other. Organisational behaviour, is more than just for managers as it can work towards enhancing people skills, motivating and stimulating towards innovation and transformation while improving ethical behaviour. From the aforementioned statement, it is evident that Organisational Behaviour is beneficial not only people in management careers but all individuals. Its importance can be seen strongly on how it shapes an individual’s life, as most people are taught and educated in organisations, acquire their creature comforts, start and retire, engage in organisational societies and becomes an integral part of their lives due to duration spent in a corporation (Moorhead & Griffin, 2010). 

Organisational behaviour blends technical skills from various behavioural disciplines principally: psychology, sociology, social psychology, anthropology, and political science. Psychology being the main pillar of study at the individual level and the other mentioned disciplines have helped us understand macro notions such as group processes and organisation (Moorhead & Griffin, 2010). 

Thus, its evident that Organisational Behaviour is beneficial to not only people within management careers. Within individual levels psychology leads to contributing factors such as learning, perception and job satisfaction amongst others. Within the group levels we can infer further and see more support of positive behavioural improvement and attitude changes. This helps in the understanding of individuals better and aids understanding. 

Organisational behaviour amounts too much more than just the role of the manager as, employees who commonly absent themselves adds scarcely in supplementing towards productivity and development of the organisation. Job satisfaction is paramount to analyse performance of an individual towards his work. Contented employees are productive and contribute towards fulfilling an appropriate work culture in an organisation. (V.G. Kondalkar, 2007). 

From the above statements, it further clarifies that organisational behaviour does not only benefit managers but right down to last individual in the organisation. As everybody’s action and reaction affects the organisation. Furthermore theories and models such as The Expectancy Theory of Perspectives, is used to get employees to chart down and measure what motivates them. Thus, the benefit of organisational behaviour is invaluable to the entire organisation as it educates and prepares everyone for this positive change of attitude to work, towards a successful organisation where every individual can reap the rewards. 

We can gather and affirm that organisational behaviour definitely affects the entire organisation and pertains to everybody and not only for people who choose to pursue management careers, to play their functions and roles to move towards improving and building a flourishing organisation.
