level
includes

within an
organization.
Each
individual
acts di erently which a ects group dynamics and the organization as a
whole. If there are a lot of happy and e cient individuals, the work
environment will be an e cient and productive one. However, if there
are a lot of negative and disgruntled individuals, it can create a toxic

The Group
The group level includes any groups within an organization. Groups can
range in size from a couple people working together, to a large group
with dozens or hundreds of members. As we just discussed, individuals
can a ect a group and a group can a ect an organization. And at the
same time, a group can a ect individuals and an organization can a ect
a group. Imagine organizational behavior as a large spider web over
each organization. The spider web connects each level of in uence with
the two others, creating a pathway between each one.
