Organizational Behavior

INDIVIDUALS AND GROUP BEHAVIOR

INDIVIDUAL STRUCTURE THE ORGANIZATION TO ATTAIN NOT ONLY TO THE ORGANIZATIONAL GOALS, BUT ALSO THEIR PERSONAL GOALS. DIVERSITY IN AN ORGANIZATIONAL CONTRIBUTES MUCH TO ITS GROWTH WHEN PROPERLY EMPLOYED. IT IS IMPORTANT TO NOTE THATFOR FAILURE O ACCEPT REALITY, AN INDIVIDUAL MAY WORK TO INVENT ONE TO SUIT HIS PERSONAL NEEDS.

* PROBLEMS

EVERY INDIVIDUAL HAS A PROBLEM OF PERSONAL IDENTITY. WHILE THE ORGANIZATION MUST CONTROL THE INDIVIDUAL TO ATTAIN THE ORGANIZATIONAL GOALS, IT HAS THE RESPONSIBILITY TO PROTECT THE INDIVIDUAL RIGHTS. AS SUCH , THE INDIVIDUAL UNCONDITIONALLY SUBMIT HIMSELF TO THE DISCIPLINES OF THE ORGANIZATION.

INDIVIDUAL AND GROUP GOALS

A GOAL IS SOMETHING THAT AN INDIVIDUAL WANTS TO ACHIEVE EVEN EITHER FOR HIMSELF OR FOR HIS ORGANIZATION. IT IS OBVIOUS THAT IF THERE IS DISAGREEMENT BETWEEN THE MANAGER AND SUBORDINATES, THE GROUP GOAL CANNOT BE THE CAUSE. IT IS THE GROUP GOAL THAT CAN MAKE THEM WORK IN PERFECT HARMONY.

* INVOLVEMENT AND COMMITMENT

AN INDIVIDUAL IS A SENSIBLE HUMAN BEING . IN AN ORGANIZATION, HE FACES CERTAIN REALITIES THAT HE MUST LEARN TO ACCEPT UNCONDITIONALLY. ONE SUCH REALITY IS THAT BY JOINING THE ORGANIZATION, HE PLACES HIMSELF IN A SITUATION WHERE HE SURRENDERS SOME OF HIS PERSONAL RIGHTS FOR THE PROTECTION OF THE ORGANIZATION. AS SUCH, IT WOULD BE WISE FOR HIM TO BE MORE FLEXIBLE IN HISRELATIONSHIPS WITH OTHER PEOPLE IN THE ORGANIZATION. HE MAKES THE MOST OF THE OPPORTUNITY BY GETTING ON WITH HIS PERSONAL PLANS UNTIL HE WOULD HAVE NO CHOICE BUT TO ACCEPT THE GROUP GOALS AS HIS OWN.

* TASK MUST BE ACCOMPLISH

A MANAGER SHOULD ACCOMPLISH THE TASKS SET FOR HIS GROUP. HE DEPENDS A LOT ON HIS SUBORDINATES IN ATTAINING THE ORGANIZATIONAL GOALS. HENCE, HE DOES WHAT IS NECESSARY WITHIN THE BUREAUCRATIC POLICY OF THE ORGANIZATION. OTHERWISE, HIS SUBORDINATES SHOULDWOULD FIND IT DIFFICULT FOR THEM TO ATTAIN BOTH THEIR INDIVIDUAL AND GROUP GOALS.
