 MODELS OF
ORGANIZATIONAL BEHAVIOR
 WHAT IS ORGANIZATIONAL BEHAVIOR?

Organizational behavior is defined as the systematic

study and application of knowledge about how
individuals and groups act within the organizations
where they work
 WHAT IS ORGANIZATIONAL BEHAVIOR?

Management and organization behavior draws on

theory, methods and principles from various
disciplines to learn about individual perception,
values, learning capacities, action of people in an
organization.
 MODELS OF ORGANIZATIONAL BEHAVIOR

AUTOCRATIC CUSTODIAL SUPPORTIVE COLLEGIAL HYBRID

 AUTOCRATIC MODEL

•The basis of this model is

power with a managerial
orientation of authority.
 AUTOCRATIC MODEL

Those who are in command must

have the power to demand “ you do
this -or else”
 AUTOCRATIC MODEL
• The employees in turn are oriented towards
obedience and dependence on the boss
• The employee need that is met is subsistence
• The performance result is minimal
 AUTOCRATIC MODEL
• Its principal weakness is its high human cost
especially as caused by micromanagement
*Micromanagement- is a natural pattern of
autocratic managers, it is the immersion of
manager into controlling the details of daily
operations.
 AUTOCRATIC MODEL
•Employees typically detest a
micromanager, with the result being low
morale, paralyzed decision making due
to fear of being second-guessed and high
turn -over.
USEFUL:
• Acceptable approach to guide managerial
behavior when there were no well-known
alternatives
• Useful under some extreme conditions
such as organizational crisis
 AUTOCRATIC MODEL
The Managerial orientation is formal,
official authority. Management believes
that it knows what is best and that the
employee’s obligation is to follow orders.
 AUTOCRATIC MODEL
This conventional view of management leads to
tight control of employees at work. When
combined with the often brutal and back-
breaking physical task of that era and the
intolerable conditions of disease, filth, danger,
and scarcity of resources, the autocratic model
was intensely disliked by many employees.
 AUTOCRATIC MODEL
Note: This model is a useful way to accomplish
work. It is not a complete failure. The picture of
this model just presented is an extreme one.
The model exists in all shades of gray, from
rather dark to rather light. Its principal
weakness is its high human costs.
EXAMPLE OF AUTOCRATIC
MODEL
Defense team, because here officer
hold power and authority to obey
them and thus soldiers are obedient
to execute officer’s order.
ADVANTAGES AND
DISAVANTAGES OF
AUTOCRATIC STYLE
OF LEADERSHIP
 ADVANTAGES
1. It provides for quick decision-making because here
only one person i.e., the leader takes decisions.
2. Mostly subordinates like to work under centralized
authority and strict supervision.
3. As there is no consultation with
subordinates, confidential matters can be kept
secretly.
 ADVANTAGES
4. Leadership gives strong motivation and
satisfaction to the leader who dictates terms.
5. At lower levels, only less competent
subordinates are required.
6. This style may yield positive outcome if
great speed is needed.
 DISADVANTAGES OF AUTOCRATIC STYLE
OF LEADERSHIP
1. The basic problem with the autocratic style of leadership is
that subordinates are not informed about why they are asked to do a
particular work i.e., the purpose for which the work is required to be
preformed.
2. Jobs are assigned, facilities provided, instructions issued without
consulting the person who is performing the job.
3. Subordinates are forced to follow the directions given by the leader
blindly though the directions given may not be of proper one. this will
ultimately produce feelings of helplessness and frustration among the
employees.
4. The success of this type of leadership depends
entirely upon the efficiency of the leader.
5. Subordinates tend to evade responsibility and
initiative.
6. Full potential of subordinates and their creative ideas
are not utilized.
7. Organizational continuity is threatened in the
absence of the leader. this is because, subordinates get
no opportunity for their development.
