AIMS AND OBJECTIVES Organizations play a major and continuing role in the lives of us all, especially with he growth of large-scale private sector companies (such as MOM, Virgin, Tests and so on) as well as public sector bodies (such as INS hospital trusts, local government, and the civil service).
The term ‘organizations’ refers to a variety of different types of institutions which utilities various social and technical arrangements to bring a number of people together into a relationship in which the actions of some are directed by others towards the achievement of certain tasks (whether this be manufacturing and selling computers or delivering health care).
Such organizations should be viewed less as a redefined structure into which people are ‘slotted’ and more as an ongoing and ever-changing coalition of people with quite different and often conflicting interests and purposes who are willing, within limits, to meet the requirements of management. Organizational Behavior (B) is a field of study which is concerned with the analysis and understanding of the behavior of people within such organizational settings.
This specific B module will embrace an understanding of the following areas: the behavior of people the process of management the organizational context in which behavior and management take place organizational processes and the execution of work interactions with the external environment of which the organization is a part The study of organizational behavior necessarily involves an interdisciplinary behavioral science approach, and this module will draw especially on the theories, concepts and methodology of Psychology and Sociology (thereby building on the framework established within the first year People Management module which many students will have studied). There will be a distinctly ‘humanistic’ orientation, which views people and their attitudes, perceptions, learning capacities and goals, as well s their tensions and conflicts, which are all of major importance to the organization. In addition, there will be a practical emphasis, concerned with providing answers to a variety of complex every-day real-life questions which arise in the context of working in and managing work organizations.
