Chapter 1 Organizational Behavior
Organizational Behavior (OB) - correct answer ✔The study of what people
think, feel, and do in and around organizations.


OB looks at employee behaviors, decisions, perceptions, and emotional
responses. OB examines how individuals and teams in organizations relate to
one another and to their counterparts in other organizations. OB also
encompasses the study of how organizations interact with their external
environments, particularly in the context of employee behavior and decisions.


OB researchers systematically study these topics at multiple levels of
analysis, namely, the individual, team (including interpersonal), and
organization.


Organizations - correct answer ✔Groups of people who work
interdependently toward some purpose.


Notice that organizations are not buildings or government-registered entities.
In fact, many organizations exist with neither physical walls nor government
documentation to confer their legal status.


Key Features Of Organizations - correct answer ✔1) They are collective
entities. They consist of human beings typically, but not necessarily,
employees who interact with one another in an organized way.


This organized relationship requires communication, coordination, and
collaboration to achieve organizational objectives. As such, all organizational
members have degrees of interdependence; they accomplish goals by sharing
materials, information, or expertise with coworkers.

,2) Their members have a collective sense of purpose. This collective purpose
isn't always well defined or agreed on.


Most companies have vision and mission statements, but they are sometimes
out of date or don't describe what employees actually try to achieve.


Historical Foundations Of Organizational Behavior - correct answer
✔Organizational behavior emerged as a distinct field sometime around the
early 1940s. During that decade, a few researchers began describing their
research as organizational (rather than sociological or psychological). And by
the late 1940s, Harvard University had changed the name of its MBA human
relations course to "Organizational Behavior."

Better Personal Theories To Predict And Influence - correct answer
✔Through systematic research, the field of organizational behavior has
developed theories that will help you to refine your personal theories. With
more accurate models, you are better able to predict and, ultimately, get
things done in the workplace by influencing organizational events.


Organizational Effectiveness - correct answer ✔An ideal state in which an
organization has a good fit with its external environment, effectively
transforms inputs to outputs through human capital, and satisfies the needs of
key stakeholders.


Almost all organizational behavior theories have the implicit or explicit
objective of making organizations more effective. It is considered the "ultimate
dependent variable" in OB.


Organizational performance, success, goodness, health, competitiveness, and
excellence are alternative labels for organizational effectiveness.
