How does attitude influence job satisfaction and vice versa?

Cite examples as you observed in


your respective organizations.

- Job satisfaction may influence the attitude of an individual may it be in a positive or


negative way. Positive if an individual enjoy his/her work, feel confident in their abilities
to succeed in the tasks assigned, and appreciate the role they are assigned. However, it
may become negative if the individual shows bad attitude towards work or role assigned.
It may also affect their attitude toward other individuals in the organization or with the
organization.
- Organizations with more satisfied employees tended to be more effective than
organizations with dissatisfied employees.
- To cite an example: I am working in the institution (School) for 8 years and still with the
institution. I might say that I am satisfied with the work I have right now so that I am still
with the institution. As a satisfied employee or member of the institution, I am showing
enjoyment of the work I have, I have the abilities to succeed in all the tasks assigned to
me. On the contrary. Some individual in the institution where I am currently working
only have few years of staying because of dissatisfaction.
