Editor's Notes
MOTIVATION AND NEEDS THEORY
Organization: A group of people who come together, think, work, and progress together to achieve a common goal. Organizational Behavior is the study and application of knowledge about how people act within organizations. It is a human tool for human benefit; it applies broadly to people's behavior in organizations, such as businesses, governments, schools, and service organizations.
People trained to work together tend to be happier and more productive.
Employees who believe mistreated are more likely to steal and reject their organizations' policies. People their supervisors mistreat have more mental and physical illnesses than those treated with kindness, dignity, and respect.

MANAGEMENT SKILLS
Models of Organizational Behavior
Autocratic – Management should have the decision making & employees are to be directed, persuaded, and pushed into better performance/output.
Custodial – The custodial approach tries to fulfill the basic physical needs of the employees so that they feel little secure. It reduces the employee's dependence on their bosses and increases their reliance on the organization. Employers consider "security" as a motivating factor.

ORGANIZATION BEHAVIOUR - studies how people behave, the reasons for that behavior, and how the
behavior affects the organization's performance. It is directly concerned with the understanding,
predicting, and controlling of human behavior in an organization. It Predicts the future course of action
and regulates the activity. It motivates employees toward higher productivity to learn about themselves
and others about the attitudes and behaviors of individuals and groups in organizations. Knowledge
about human Behavior would help improve an organization's effectiveness.
Custodial Model
Employees managed under the autocratic model feel insecurity and stress
The manager felt some way to develop employee relationships
The managerial orientation is towards the use of money to pay benefits
Employees hope to obtain security and benefits
Organizational dependence Since employees are getting adequate rewards and security, they are happy.
Family-managed business organization
Not suitable for mature employees
Supportive Model
The model depends on Leadership
Supports Employee Job Performance
The focus is primarily on the participation and involvement of employees in decision-making.
Creates Sense of Participation
Manager's role is to help employees achieve their work rather than supervision.
The manager is a coach who builds a better team
Assumption of Theory Y
An organization with sophisticated technology and professional people can apply this model.
Collegial Model
The collegial model extends the supportive model based on the team concept.
Employee develops a high degree of understanding
Shares common goals
Supportive – This model supports employees' job performance. If management shows faith in employees & gradually gives them power & responsibility, it will increase performance & induce a sense of participation & engagement.
Collegial – The term collegial refers to a body of people working together cooperatively.
The model depends on how management builds a feeling of partnership with the employees. Here managers are perceived as joint contributors rather than bosses.
