First, what is an organization? Business Dictionary.com (2013) provides one very complete and
helpful definition:
Seperti yang sering terjadi dengan teori, teori tandingan segera muncul sebagai reaksi terhadap
pendekatan ilmiah dan birokratis dan para peneliti berusaha untuk membuktikan dan menyanggah
teori-teori sebelumnya. Salah satu yang paling upaya penelitian terkenal adalah Studi Hawthorne
dilakukan oleh Western Electric dari tahun 1924 hingga 1933. Keenam studi ini, berjalan dari
beberapa bulan hingga beberapa tahun, melibatkan sejumlah percobaan dirancang untuk menguji
cara-cara untuk meningkatkan produktivitas. Yang pertama dirancang untuk mengukur
pencahayaan di tempat kerja untuk menentukan apakah kecerahan akan terjadi mempengaruhi
para pekerja. Temuan itu tidak seperti yang diharapkan. Ternyata bahwa bukan perubahan
pencahayaan yang mempengaruhi para pekerja, tapi faktor lain, seperti perhatian pribadi yang
mereka terima dengan berpartisipasi dalam eksperimen dan “gaya pengawasan yang lebih
partisipatif”. dan kebebasan dari kuota yang ketat dan disiplin yang keras.”

Organizations - The Breaking Away From classical Approaches
perbedaan yang kontras antara teori classical dan hubungan antara manusia membuat Douglas
McGregor menulis buku “The Human Side of Enterprise” yang mana dia mengembangkan teori X
dan Y. X berhubungan dengan teori classical yang mana pekerja adalah bagian dari mesin yang
perlu diperintah dan dinilai dengan materi, sedangkan Y berkaitan dengan karakteristik dari
hubungan manusia dalam bekerja seperti lingkungan kerja, partisipasi dalam diskusi pengambilan
keputusan, rasa berkontribusi akan kesuksesan organisasi. McGregor membuat daftarr inovasi dari
teori Y sebagai berikut:

Organizations - Changes in Organizational Structure
Pendekatan hubungan manusia telah mengilhami berbagai konfigurasi organisasi, operasi, dan
manajemen yang kita lihat sekarang. Dia membawa perubahan dalam struktur organisasi dan dalam
hubungan antara pekerja dan rekan-rekan mereka dan supervisor. Bagan organisasi bertingkat, hierarkis
dengan otoritas terpusat, yang begitu dominan di masa lalu, telah berevolusi menjadi desentralisasi dan
bagan yang lebih datar dengan unit bisnis, area fungsional, departemen, tim, dan pekerja individu yang
memiliki otonomi lebih besar dan kekuatan pengambilan keputusan

Organizations - Leaders or Managers at the Top
1. Meanings are not transferred (meaning in the receiver not the sender).
2. Anything is a potential message (verbal and nonverbal).
3. Input (especially listening) is an integral part of the communication process.
4. The message received is the only one that counts since that will determine the receiver’s actions.
5. Feedback is not only essential in the operation of an organization but messages have both beneficial and harmful consequences.
6. The cost factor is ever present (senders and receivers pay with money, energy, and emotions, for every act of important communication).
7. Redundancy is critical but it costs, so the need to repeat messages must be balanced against the cost.
8. Communication overload will occur since receivers only have a limited channel capacity and ability to process messages.
9. Serial transmission changes the message; the more people through whom the message must pass, the more likely distortion will occur.
10. Organizational climate [culture] of an organization is more crucial than communication skills or techniques in creating an effective
organization.

COMMUNICATION
CULTURE
To create an ethical work environment, leaders should take the following steps:
1. Set high ethical standards and communicate them often in public and private.
2. Establish an environment of open, receptive communication within and outside of the immediate group, unit, or division.
3. Be consistent and transparent in all interactions and communication.
4. Act swiftly and consistently when standards are violated.
5. Encourage candor with direct reports; be honest with them and
expect honesty back.
6. Listen to any complaints or issues raised without judging or being critical of the one bringing them.
7. Get out and interact with employees at all levels.
8. In a crisis, be open, honest, and accessible.
The laws and an organization’s code of ethics and guiding principles or values are designed to protect all individuals in the
organization at whatever level they may be and are particularly important in the supervisor-subordinate relationship,
where many of the ethical issues can arise.
