attitudes, perceptions, motivation, learning, and decision-making
within an organization. It explores how individualsinteract withtheir
work environment and colleagues.

structured and how this structure affects communication, decision-
making, and overall efficiency.

that motivateemployees, such as rewards, job design, and

technologies.

organization, and OB emphasizes the importance of understanding their needs,
motivations, and well-being.

7. Models of Organisational Behaviour

8. 1. Autocratic Model: This style is characterized by a strong focus on
production with little concern for the well-being of employees.
Managers who follow this model tend to make decisions
unilaterally,often relying on strict rules and structure. Employee
satisfaction may not be a priority.
2. Custodial Model: In this style, the primary concern is for the
employees rather than production. Managers who adopt this
approach emphasize job security, benefits, and employeewell-
being.
3. Supportive Model: The supportive model places equal emphasis on
both concern for people and concern for production. Managers
using this approach seek to balance employeeneeds with
productivity. They providesupport, encourage collaboration, and
aim to create a positive work environment.

9. 4. Collegial Model: This modelstrikes a balance between concern for
people and concern for production. Managers adopting this style
promote teamwork, participation, and collaboration.
5. System Model: In the system model, the expectations of the
managers are much more than gettingthe work done by the
employees. The managers have to show their emotional side, be more
compassionate and caring towardstheir team, and they must be
sensitivetowardsthe needs of the diverse workforce.

10. Limitations of Organisational Behaviour
1. Human Behavior Variability: Human behavior is inherently variable
and context-dependent,which can make it hard to predict and
manage consistently.
2. Changing Organizational Environments: Rapid changes in
technology, globalization, and the evolving nature of work present
challenges to traditional OB models and theories, which may not
adequately address contemporary organizational realities.
3. Individual Differences: OB models may not account for the wide
range of individual differences, such as personality traits and
cognitivestyles, which can significantly influence behavior in
organizations.
4. Lack of Real-time Feedback: Traditional OB research methods, such
as surveysand observations, may not provide real-time feedback,
limiting their usefulness in addressing immediate issues within
organizations.

11. Emotions, Attitudes and Behaviour
1. Beliefs: Belief is something we believe to be true. For example,I
believe that wage cutting increases cost efficiency.
2. Feelings: Feelings represent how we perceive something.
3. Behavioural intentions: This theory argues that specific events on the
job cause different kinds of people to feel different emotions. This
emotions, inter inspire actions that can benefit or impede othersat
