This document provides an overview of several organizational theories including system theory, Weick's theory of organizing, Luhmann's social systems theory, and evolutionary psychology. It discusses key concepts in system theory like wholeness, hierarchy, openness, and feedback. Weick's theory focuses on equivocality reduction and sensemaking. Luhmann examines social systems as communication and the role of episodes, stability, and change. Evolutionary psychology proposes that human behavior is influenced by innate mechanisms adapted through evolution.
1. The document discusses different approaches to organizational communication structure, including the traditional and network perspectives.
2. Key aspects of structure covered include formal/informal communication channels, downward/upward/horizontal message flow, loose vs tight coupling, and the impact of structure on information distortion and organizational control.
3. Network analysis can provide insights into formal/informal interaction patterns and the degree structures correspond to prescribed channels.
This document discusses organizational change management and the factors that impact change. It defines organizational change management as addressing the human side of managing new business processes, structural changes, or cultural changes within a company. Successful change management strategies include having a common vision, strong leadership, educating employees on changes, and measuring and rewarding success. Change can be impacted by internal and external factors. External factors include political, economic, social, technological, legal, and environmental influences, as analyzed using PEST/PESTLE frameworks. Effective change management involves motivating change, creating a vision, gaining political support, managing the transition, and sustaining momentum. Key roles and skills of change agents are also important.
This document summarizes several theories of organizational control and management. It describes classical theories from Taylor, Fayol and Weber that focused on scientific management and bureaucracy. It then discusses transitional theories from Follett and Barnard that emphasized human factors. Next, it outlines the human relations movement based on the Hawthorne studies. Finally, it presents several human resource development theories including Maslow's hierarchy of needs, McGregor's Theory X and Y, Likert's systems of management, and Ouchi's Theory Z.
The document discusses the major environmental conditions that shape public organizations, including: 1) general values and institutions of the political economy such as constitutional provisions, due process, and separation of powers; 2) values and performance criteria for government organizations like competence, efficiency, and accountability; and 3) institutions, entities, and actors with political authority and influence such as chief executives, legislatures, courts, other governmental agencies, and different levels of government. It also reviews theories on how organizations adapt their structures based on environmental conditions.
Contingency theory states that there is no single best way to organize a company or leadership style, and that the optimal approach depends on internal and external situational factors. These factors include strategy, size, task, uncertainty, and technology. The main perspectives are that groups have unequal power and seek it through collective action. Contingency theory provides a framework to assess power structures and the fit between organizations and their environments to empower oppressed groups. In PNG, NGOs apply it by providing equal opportunities for disabled people and coalitions use it to assess resource governance.
Conceptual framework for Behavior & performanceNcell
The document discusses conceptual frameworks for managing employee behavior and performance. It describes that managing people involves understanding, predicting, and controlling behavior as well as developing systems to support performance. Behavior and performance are causally related, with behavior determining performance. Work behavior is defined as observable actions that can be measured. Measuring work behavior is important for evaluating desirability and influencing behaviors through reinforcement. Behavior is analyzed at the individual, group, and organizational levels. Understanding and managing behavior is key to effective management and impacts outcomes like satisfaction, commitment, and productivity. Theoretical frameworks for understanding behavior include traits, psychology, cognition, behaviorism, and social cognition. An integrative social cognitive approach can help understand, predict, and control human behavior
The document discusses organizational environments and business environments. It defines key terms like organizational environment, environmental scanning, and internal and external environments. It also discusses frameworks for analyzing business environments like PESTLE and SWOT. Cultural factors that influence organizations like time orientation and power distance are outlined.

Introduction to Organisational BehaviourISAAC Jayant
Organisational behavior is a field of study that investigates the impact that Individuals, Groups and Structure have on behavior within organization for the purpose of applying such knowledge towards improving an organisations effectiveness. (Stephen. P. Robbins).
Organizational behavior (OB) is the study of the way people interact within groups. Normally this study is applied in an attempt to create more efficient business organizations. The central idea of the study of organizational behavior is that a scientific approach can be applied to the management of workers. http://www.thefreshquotes.com/attitude-quotes/
This document provides an overview of key concepts in organizational behaviour. It discusses how OB studies individual and group behavior within organizations. The document outlines various influences on OB, including the individual, group, organization and external environment. It also summarizes three disciplines that contribute to OB: psychology, sociology and anthropology. Additionally, it presents and explains eight metaphors for organizations developed by Morgan. The document concludes by discussing the psychological contract between employees and organizations and the importance of balance.
This document provides an introduction to management concepts including:
1. It defines management as "the art of getting things done through & with people in formally organized groups".
2. It outlines the levels of management as top, middle, and lower levels and their respective roles.
3. It describes the functions of management as planning, organizing, staffing, directing, and controlling.
The document discusses key concepts in organizational behavior and management thought. It defines organizational behavior as the study of human behavior in organizational settings and the interface between human behavior and organizations. It discusses approaches to management such as classical, behavioral, and quantitative. Classical theorists discussed include Taylor, Fayol, and Weber. The Hawthorne studies are summarized along with fields contributing to organizational behavior like psychology and sociology. Managers' roles and functions are outlined. The document also covers topics like organizational behavior in the context of globalization and managing workforce diversity.
Social learning theory proposes that behavior is determined through continuous reciprocal interaction between cognitive, environmental, and behavioral factors. It involves three key processes: vicarious learning by observing others, processing experiences through reflective thought, and self-regulation through anticipating consequences of one's actions. Modeling is the main mechanism of vicarious learning, in which people acquire behaviors by observing influential models and the consequences of their behaviors. Self-regulation allows people to reward or punish their own behaviors based on personal standards and social comparisons. Through reciprocal determinism, both personal behaviors and environmental influences interact to shape each other over time. Social learning theory suggests immunization behaviors can change as people model favorable outcomes of immunization within their social networks.
The document discusses how organizational behavior and culture can influence workplace safety, defining concepts like safety culture and climate, and outlining techniques for analyzing an organization's culture and successfully driving cultural change, such as having strong leadership, communicating a clear vision, and institutionalizing new practices through consistent procedures and reward behaviors. It also provides guidelines for creating a positive safety culture, including getting leadership and employee commitment to safety, effective communication of safety priorities, and training programs that promote safe behaviors and attitudes.
The document provides an overview of the evolution of management thought from classical to modern approaches. It discusses classical theorists like Taylor, Fayol, and Weber and their contributions to scientific management. It also covers neo-classical human relations approaches developed by Mayo and behavioural science theorists. Modern management saw developments in quantitative approaches using operations research, systems approaches, and contingency theory. The functions of management - planning, organizing, staffing, leading and controlling - are also summarized in the context of various management concepts.

Organizational culture and climate are influenced by factors such as leadership, values, and assumptions. Organizational culture refers to deep-seated aspects like beliefs and assumptions, while climate describes more surface-level perceptions. Various models and frameworks have been developed to understand and measure culture and climate. Elements like norms, artifacts, and symbols shape the cultural environment. Communities of practice and knowledge management approaches can help facilitate knowledge sharing within and across organizational boundaries.
Organizational behavior is the study of how individuals and groups act within organizations. It examines how their behaviors impact organizational effectiveness. The document traces the historical roots of OB from scientific management to classical organization theory to the human relations movement. It defines key OB concepts like formal vs informal organizations and discusses individual differences in areas like personality, intelligence, attitudes and perception. The goals and scope of OB are explained along with topics like groups, leadership, motivation and organizational structure.
Introduction To The Field Of Organizational BehaviourSahil Mahajan
This document provides an introduction to the field of organizational behavior. It discusses what organizations are, why organizational behavior is studied, and trends influencing organizations like globalization, information technology, changing workforces, and employment relationships. It also covers topics such as telecommuting, knowledge management, and the historical roots and development of organizational behavior as a field of study.
The document discusses organizational theory and organizational climate. It defines organization as people working together towards common goals. Three theories of organization are described: classical, neo-classical, and modern. Classical theory views the organization as a machine, while neo-classical and modern theories consider human and social factors. Organizational climate refers to the internal environment experienced by members. Factors like leadership, structure, and communication influence the climate. An effective climate has open communication, participative decision-making, concern for employees, and manages change well.
Human behavior is influenced by both internal and external factors. It involves sensing external events, interpreting them, responding appropriately, and learning from the results. Behavior can be overt and observable or covert and involving internal mental processes. Differences in individual behavior are caused by physiological, psychological, and socio-cultural variables as well as situational organizational and job factors. Understanding human behavior helps influence organizational events, understand oneself and others, comprehend motivation, maintain relations, and shape organizational culture.
This document discusses how time is experienced in educational organizations and the potential for considering organizational rhythms and temporal processes to inform engagement with culture and change. It outlines that time is often overlooked in education despite being central to experiences of work and the impacts of policy. Drawing on organizational sciences, it presents concepts of chronos and kairos time and how organizations exhibit rhythmic patterns along intensities of internal and external focuses. These rhythmic tendencies can influence organizational types from hypercompetitive to "out of time." The document argues that considering time as an ethical process is important for creating sustainable work rhythms and cultures.
Organisational Culture and Climate.pptxSapnaThukral2
Organizational climate and culture are related concepts that influence employee behavior and organizational outcomes. Organizational climate refers to employee perceptions of the practices, policies and procedures that are expected within an organization. It conveys the impression people have of the internal work environment. Organizational culture consists of the shared values, assumptions, beliefs and norms that develop over time within an organization. Elements of culture include observable artifacts, shared beliefs and values, common assumptions, and elements that are taught to new employees to socialize them. Management can strengthen culture by influencing founders and leaders, socializing new employees, and selecting employees who align with the existing culture.
This document provides an overview of organizational behavior concepts. It discusses how organizational behavior is the systematic study of human behavior in organizations and draws from various disciplines like psychology and sociology. Key topics covered include the nature of people and organizations, forces that influence organizations like people, structure, technology and environment. Models of organizational behavior are presented as well as concepts like social systems, organizational culture, and approaches to OB like human resources-oriented and contingency approaches. Challenges to OB like seeking quick fixes and varying environments are also discussed. The document emphasizes that organizations are complex social systems and understanding human behavior is important for effective management.

A Pecha Kucha About Social EvaluationsOMT Division
This document provides an overview of a proposed Pecha Kucha session on social evaluations at an Academy of Management conference. The session would feature brief presentations on concepts like legitimacy, reputation, celebrity, and stigma. It would begin with introductory presentations by emerging scholars on key concepts. Then 18 people would each have 5 minutes to present new work, with 12 slots reserved for junior scholars. Four senior scholars would provide commentary after all presentations. The goal is to provide a forum for developing new ideas and relationships among scholars interested in social evaluations research.

Working on the Dark Side: A Workshop for New Research on Organizational Misconduct
Saturday, Aug 4 2012 4:15PM - 7:15PM at Sheraton Boston Hotel in Independence East
The current economic environment and the persistence of corporate scandals are increasing the need for academics to take up misconduct as a critical and coherent area of inquiry. To date, empirical research on these related phenomena (such as fraud, corruption, misbehaviour, deviance, illegality, etc.) has been sporadic. However, we believe this area of scholarship has the potential to make an important and cohesive impact on the Academy. This PDW seeks to provide hands on development of participants' working papers who will be matched with senior mentors: Blake Ashforth, Art Brief and Donald Palmer and to build a community of scholars currently working on organizational misconduct. We are aiming for an intimate session of no more than 15 papers, and so encourage those interested to contact the organizers as soon as possible to secure their places. Interested scholars should submit drafts of papers to the organizers by June 1; in certain circumstances, detailed outlines will be acceptable.

2. Looking into the Arrow: Learning
from Routines
Martha S. Feldman
University of California, Irvine
3. Organizational Routines?
• Organizational routines are “repetitive,
recognizable patterns of interdependent
actions, carried out by multiple actors”
(Feldman and Pentland, 2003: 95)
• Routines accomplish organizational work
– Administrative routines – e.g., hiring, budgeting
– Operational routines – e.g., producing goods and
services
4. Routines as Processes
• Routines have been recognized as critical
processes that connect organizational inputs
with organizational outcomes
– Behavioral Theory of the Firm (Cyert and March,
1963): routines as programs
– Evolutionary Economics (Nelson and Winter,
1982): routines as organizational genes
– Routine Dynamics (Feldman and Pentland, 2003)
routines as generative systems
5. Routine as arrow between inputs
and outcomes

6. Routine Dynamics - Going inside the
Arrow
• Feldman and Pentland – 2003
• Routines are practices that have performative
aspects and ostensive aspects
– Performative = specific actions taken at specific
times and places
– Ostensive = enacted patterns
– These aspects are mutually constitituted
10. Stability and Change in Routines
• Routine dynamics is about the internal
dynamics of routines that produce both
stability and change.
– Effortful accomplishments – doing different things
to produce the same pattern
– Emergent accomplishments – doing the same
thing produces change
11. Routines are effortful
accomplishments
• Focus is on the work done to recreate and
conform to “the same” pattern
– E.g., performances of hiring routines are adapted
to the circumstances of the hire
– Performances of talks are adapted to the
circumstances of the talk
• The routine remains recognizably “the same”
even though it may have to be performed
differently.
13. Routines are emergent
accomplishments
• Focus is on how flexibility in performance has
the potential to change enacted patterns.
– As we perform a routine differently, we discover
possibilities that that we may incorporate into the
pattern.
• The telephone/skype interview
• Gender-neutral interviewing
• Talks with powerpoint slides
• New opportunities to cooperate
15. Sources of Pattern Change
• Exogenous: Some changes in routines are caused
by external/exogenous forces – e.g., technology
or laws
– Exogenous changes tend to be wide-spread and are
visible through statistical studies.
• Endogenous: Some changes are caused by
internal/ endogenous forces – e.g., just by doing
the routine
– Endogenous changes tend to be local and situated and
are more likely to be visible through ethnographic or
other qualitative studies.
16. Endogeneity – internal forces of
stability and change
• Routine dynamics focuses primarily on endogenous
relationship between performance and pattern and
how that relationship produces stability and change.
• Endogeneity is important to managing a specific
organization at a specific time.
– Even exogenously mandated change has to be enacted and
the relationship between performance and pattern affects
how external forces (e.g., technology changes, legal
mandates, etc.) are enacted in an organization.
– Edogeneity affects how organizations take advantage of
internally generated possibilities.
17. Seeing into the arrow
• Introducing two (of many) concepts that
underlie the particular process theorizing
represented in routine dynamics.
–Multiplicity – enables movement
–Relationality – enables creating order
through movement
19. Multiplicity
• Simply: The world is
made of lots of different
stuff.
• Less colloquially: The
social world is enacted
through many different
actions.
• Multiplicity allows for
movement.
– Multiple identities, for
instance, allow us to move
actions from one domain
to another.
20. Multiplicity in Routines: Performances
• Routines entail multiple
performances – a
sequence of actions
performed multiple
times.
• Performances are made
of multiple actions and
constellations of actions
involving multiple
people.
21. Multiplicity in Routines: Patterns
• Routines entail multiple
patterns.
• Patterns (what is
connected to what) vary
by point of view:
– Different participants in
a routine
– Participant and non-
participant (emic and
etic)
– Different points in time
23. Relationality
• The nature of the
phenomenon – object, idea,
event, action – depends on
the connections it is
embedded in.
• Constrasts to substantialism in
which the phenomenon has
an intrinsic nature that is
affected by context, which is
separable.
• Enacting is the relationality of
action and the pattern being
enacted.
24. We say `The wind is blowing’, as if the wind were separate from
its blowing, as if a wind could exist which did not blow
(Elias, What is Sociology? 1978: 112).
25. Relationality of mutual constitution
• The wind is not separate from
the wind blowing.
• Power is not something we
have – it has to be enacted
usually through other people.
• Organization requires acts of
organizing.
• Identity must be enacted and
re-enacted.
26. Relationality in Routines
• Relationality of routines: There
is no routine separate from
the multiple enactings of it.
– Descriptions, traces and espoused
routines must be enacted to
become routines.
• Relationality within routines:
Performances and patterns are
mutually constituted
– Performative and ostensive are
aspects of routine - separable only
analytically
– There are no performative
routines or ostensive routines
27. Implications for Studying
Social/Organizational Processes
• Taking multiplicity and relationality seriously:
– Entails methods of study that do not favor
singularity or finality including ethnography,
grounded theorizing, formal modeling, simulation.
– Implies a focus on opening conversations rather
than on finding foundational answers.
• Routine dynamics provides an example of
both how this work can be done and why it is
worth it.
