OB 1
session 1
what i learned today?
what is OB - investigation of individual, groups and structures impact on each other within organizations and applying this knowledge to improve organization effectiveness.
OB consists of - psychology, sociology and anthropology
developing OB model - dependent variables - productivity, absenteeism, turnover, job satisfaction, deviant workplace behavior, OCB.
productivity - performance measure that includes effectiveness and efficiency.
difference between effectiveness and efficiency - effectiveness = achievement of goals
efficiency = the minimum input required to achieve an output.
OCB = behavior not part of formal job requirement but promotes effective functioning of organization i.e. going the extra mile.
independent variables - individual level variables - motivation, perception, learning, decision making.
group level - power and politics, teams, conflict
organization level - structure and design, policies, practices, culture
Diversity -
surface level diversity
deep level diversity
surface level - that is visible on surface such as age, gender, ethnicity
deep level - diversity in values, personality and preferences
session 2
OB 1
what did i learn today?
is lying ok?
regarding the articles:
oB
contextualized B
Ob
big B - emphasizes interesting behavior that may be relevant for organizations.
is the subject advancing the field? i.e. is it passing the core competence test?
escalation of commitment: OB equivalent of sunk cost
you took a decision, it is going wrong, you deny and become even more committed to it.
contextualized B - behavior in an organizational context
it does not pass centrality test. every behavior is not central to organization.
the Author argues that simply bringing context in studying behavior is not enough.
Big B and contextualized B have trade deficit e.g. you use psychology but don't give to that field in return.
psychology moves on but your return is not sufficient.
Big O - behavior that is central to organizing.
