are interacting with each other
within a deliberately structured set
up and working in an independent way
to achieve goals and objective.
WHAT IS BEHAVIOR?

• Behavior is a way on how

people react to a certain
situation.
WHAT IS OB?
ORGANIZATIONAL BEHAVIOR
• Roman J. Alday has defined “O.B as a branch of
the social science that seeks to build theories
that can be applied to predicting, understanding
and controlling behavior in work organizations”.
• Organization Behavior is the study of application
of knowledge about how people act within
organizations. It is a human tool for human
benefit.
• applies broadly to the behavior of people in all 
types of organizations such as business,
government, school and service organizations.
What are the goals of Organizational
Behavior?
Nature and
Features of
Organizational
Behavior
1. It has assumed the status of a
distinct field of study. It is a part
of general management. It represents
behavioral approach to management
2. It contains a body of theory,
research, application associated when
a growing concern for in work
place. Its study helps in
understanding human behavior
3. The study of theories and research
experiences of organization
facilitates manager for creative
thinking to solve human problems in
organizations
4. Discipline is heavily influenced
by several other behavioral sciences
and social sciences like psychology,
Sociology and anthropology.
5.Itprovides rational thinking about 
people. It concentrates on three level
 of  behavior. They are individual 
behavior, group behavior and 
organizational behavior
6. Organization Behavior has
psychological foundation. The concept
like learning, perception, attitude,
motivation is borrowed from
psychology, sociology and
anthropology.
• Chester Barnard recognized that
individuals behave differently when
acting in their organizational role
than when acting separately from the
organization. Organizational
behavior researchers study the
behavior of individuals primarily in
their organizational roles. One of
the main goals of organizational
behavior research is "to revitalize
organizational theory and develop a
better conceptualization of
organizational life"
• Certainly large numbers of people
have been doing work for a long
time.
• Over time, the Protestant
Reformation provided an ideological
foundation for the modern industrial
society by suggesting that work is
now a profound moral obligation, a
path to eternal salvation.

 Scientific Management
Dating back to the early 20th century,
organizational behavior theory developed out
of classical management theories, such as
those of Frederick W. Taylor. Taylor has been
called the father of scientific management.
4 BASIC WAYS OF KNOWING
• Tenacity
• Intuition
• Authority
• Science
• They are using tenacity, When managers form
a belief (e.g., a happy worker is a
productive worker) and continue to hold that
belief out of habit and often in spite of
contradictory information,
• They use intuition when they feel the answer
is self-evident or when they have a hunch
about how to solve a problem.
• They use authority when they seek an answer
to a problem from an expert or consultant
who supposedly has experience in the area.
• Finally, they use science—perhaps too seldom
—when they are convinced that the three
previous methods allow for too much
subjectivity in interpretation.
HAWTHORNE STUDIES
• The Western Electric (Hawthorne Works) Studies
(1923-1933) Cicero,ILL. The most famous of these
studies was the Hawthorne Studies which showed
how work groups provide mutual support and
effective resistance to management schemes to
increase output. This study found that workers
didn’t respond to classical motivational
approaches as suggested in the Scientific
Management and Taylor approaches, but rather
workers were also interested in the rewards and
punishments of their own work group.
HAWTHORNE STUDIES
• The Hawthorne Studies helped us to
see that an organization is more
than a formal arrangement of
functions but is also a social
system. In the following chart, we
can see a comparison of traditional
assumptions vs. newer human
relations.
Douglas McGregor's Theory X and Theory Y

Douglas McGregor was one of the great popularizers

of Human Relations approach with his Theory X and
Theory Y. In his research he found that although
many managers spouted the right ideas, their actual
managers indicated a series of assumptions that
McGregor called Theory X. However, research seemed
to clearly suggest that these assumptions were not
valid but rather a different series of notions
about human behavior seemed more valid. He called
these Theory Y and urged managers to managed based
on these more valid Theory Y notions.

Behavior
1. Understand Organization and Employee

• Understanding an organization and its employee

is the first importance of organizational
behavior.
• Once their behaviors are understood, it makes
it easy to make a friendly and cordial
relationship between the employees and
organizations (managers) creating a proper
working environment. Understand them in a
better way.
2.MOTIVATE EMPLOYEES
• It is obvious that 
motivated employees always work
more. It is the prime duty of all
managers to make their employees
motivated and devote their 100%
efforts to the organization’s
achievement.
3. GOOD WORKPLACE RELATIONSHIP
• One of the main objectives of OB is
to create peace and harmony in the
organization. It is a human tool for
human benefits. Its knowledge is
used for benefiting people.
4. PREDICT AND CONTROL HUMAN
BEHAVIOR
• One of the main importance of
studying organizational behavior is
to know how to predict and control
people’s behavior in an
organization.
• In addition, the knowledge of organizational
behavior becomes a foundation for a person who
wants to assume managerial jobs and succeed as
a good manager.
5. EFFECTIVE UTILIZATION OF
HUMAN RESOURCES
• The knowledge of OB helps managers how to
manage people effectively in an
organization, how to inspire, how to
motivate. The effectiveness of human
resources allows managers to get high
productivity. It also guarantees the
success of the organization in the
achievement of its goals.
6. ENSURES EFFECTIVE
COMMUNICATION
• Communication is an essential part
of the organization even effective
communication is the most for the
proper flow of information within
the organization
7. BOOST PERFORMANCE
• Last but not least, OB also helps to boost the
performance of the organization. The above-
mentioned points are evidence that
organizational behavior boosts the performance
and productivity of the organization.

MANAGEMENT AS AN INTEGRATING
ACTIVITY
• In the first place, management has a role in
the integration of organization goals,
objectives, policies and plans and rules. In
relation to this, the goals for which
organizations were established to achieve guide
the formulation of objectives, the objectives
guide in the formulation of derivative plans
which will stipulate the activities, resources
and outputs that are required for day to day
operations of an organization.
• In ensuring that goals and objectives and
policies are synchronized and are in tandem
with one another, management will ensure
that all departments as well as all the
employees of the organization are fully
aware of them and will provide supervision
and the necessary support to foster
collective efforts towards the successful
attainment of the organizational goals,
objectives, policies and work plans.
CONCLUSION
Effective management is key for the success of
any organization. There are different processes,
components and resources that help organizations
to function efficiently and effectively,
Management is therefore useful in integrates
people, planning and performance with
organizational objectives which results in the
development of the individual, team and
organizational capability leading to higher
performance. (Management study guide, 2017).
