Leadership and Organizational Behavior
Organizational Behavior (OB) is the study and application of knowledge about how people, individuals, and groups act in organizations. It does this by taking a system approach. That is, it interprets people-organization relationships in terms of the whole person, whole group, whole organization, and whole social system. Its purpose is to build better relationships by achieving human objectives, organizational objectives, and social objectives.
As you can see from the definition above, organizational behavior encompasses a wide range of topics, such as human behavior, change, leadership, teams, etc. Since many of these topics are covered elsewhere in the leadership guide, this paper will focus on a few parts of OB: elements, models, social systems, OD, work life, action learning, and change.
Elements of Organizational Behavior
The organization's base rests on management's philosophy, values, vision and goals. This in turn, drives the organizational culture that is composed of the formal organization, informal organization, and the social environment. The culture determines the type of leadership, communication, and group dynamics within the organization. The workers perceive this as the quality of work life which directs their degree of motivation. The final outcome are performance, individual satisfaction, and personal growth and development. All these elements combine to build the model or framework that the organization operates from.
Models of Organizational Behavior
There are four major models or frameworks that organizations operate out of, Autocratic, Custodial, Supportive, and Collegial (Cunningham, Eberle, 1990; Davis ,1967):
· Autocratic — The basis of this model is power with a managerial orientation of authority. The employees in turn are oriented towards obedience and dependence on the boss. The employee need that is met is subsistence. The performance result is minimal.
· Custodial — The basis of this model is economic resources with a managerial orientation of money. The employees in turn, are oriented towards security, benefits, and dependence on the organization. The employee need that is met is security. The performance result is passive cooperation.
· Supportive — The basis of this model is leadership with a managerial orientation of support. The employees in turn are oriented towards job performance and participation. The employee need that is met is status and recognition. The performance result is awakened drives.
· Collegial — The basis of this model is partnership with a managerial orientation of teamwork. The employees in turn are oriented towards responsible behavior and self-discipline. The employee need that is met is self-actualization. The performance result is moderate enthusiasm.
Although there are four separate models, almost no organization operates exclusively in one. There will usually be a predominate one, with one or more areas over-lapping with the oth ...

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.
Palestine last event orientationfvgnh .pptxRaedMohamed3
An EFL lesson about the current events in Palestine. It is intended to be for intermediate students who wish to increase their listening skills through a short lesson in power point.
2. Lesson 1.The Dynamics of people and
organizations
A primary goal of management education is to develop
students into managers who can think ahead, exercise
good judgment, make ethical decisions, and take into
consideration the implications of their proposed
actions
– Jane Schmidt-Wilk
3. Premises
Organizations are complex systems.
Need to understand how the system operates esp. in a
sociotechnical system – humanity and technology.
Human behavior in organizations is
sometimes unpredictable
Behaviors may come from deep-seated needs, lifetime
experiences and personal value systems
Human behavior in a organization can be
partially understood
Applying the frameworks of behavioral science, management
and other disciplines.
5. What is an Organization?
An organization is a
collection of people
who work together
to achieve individual
and organizational
goals.
6. What is an Organization
A consciously coordinated social unit,
composed of two or more people, that
functions on a relatively continuous basis
to achieve a common goal or set of goals.
8. Describe
Goals of OB
how people behave under a variety of conditions.
Understand
Why people behave as they do.
Probe for underlying explanations
Predict
Predict future employee behavior (tardiness,
productive & unproductive etc.)
Provide preventive actions
Control
At least partially and develop some human activity at
work.
Managers need to remember that organizational
behavior is a tool for human benefit
10. Components of Organizational
Behavior
Understanding
organizational behavior
requires studying
Individuals in Organizations
Group and Team Processes
Organizational Processes
12. Key forces – complex set of forces affects the
nature of organizations
13. Key Forces
• People
Make up the internal social system of
an organization
Melting pot of diversity – talents,
background and perspectives to their
jobs
16. • Structure
Defines the formal relationship and use of people in
organizations.
Effective coordination of work
Create complex problems of cooperation, negotiation and
decision making
• Technology
Provides he resources with which people work and affects the
tasks they perform
Benefit of technology – does more and better work however it
restricts people in various ways
OB’s challenge is to maintain the delicate balance between
technical and social systems.
17. • Environment
Internal or external
Organizations are part of a larger system and factors
influence them like:
– Citizens expect organizations to be socially
responsible
–New products and competition for customers come
from around the globe (globalization)
–The direct impact of unions diminishes
–Dramatic pace of change in society.
The external environment influences the attitudes of
people, affects working conditions, and provides
competitions for resources and power.
1–17
18. Fundamental Concepts of OB
Nature of people
Individual differences
–Nature vs. nurture
Perception
–The unique way in which each person sees,
organizes and interprets things.
–Selective perception cause misinterpretation
A whole person
–We employ the whole person not just their brains or
skills
–Ergonomics is the science of fitting workplace
conditions and job demands to the capabilities of the
working population
19. Motivated behavior
–A path towards increased need fulfillment is a
better approach
Desire for involvement
–Hunger for a change to chare what they know
and to learn from the experience.
–Organizations need to provide opportunities for
meaningful involvement – employee
empowerment
Value of the person
–Worth before the word
–meal before the message
–they want to be treated differently from other
factors of production
1–19
20. Nature of organization
Social systems
– or social structure in general refer to entities or groups in
definite relation to each other, to relatively enduring
patterns of behavior and relationship within social
systems, or to social institutions and norms becoming
embedded into social systems in such a way that they
shape the behavior of actors within those social systems.
Social systems can be said to be the patterns of behavior
of a group of people possessing similar characteristics
due to their existence in same society.
–Formal and informal social systems
–The idea of a social system provides a framework for
analyzing organizational behavior issues. It helps make
OB problems understandable and manageable

Managing Diversity
Workforce diversity -
organizations are becoming
a more heterogeneous mix of
people in terms of gender,
age, race, ethnicity, and
sexual orientation
40. Diversity
Diversity enhances creativity and innovation (Adler,
1997;Jackson et al., 1992), and
Produces competitive advantages(Coleman, 2002;
Jackson et al., 1992).
Diverse teams make it possible to enhance flexibility
(Fleury, 1999) and
Rapid response and adaptation to change (Adler,
1997; Jackson et al., 1992.
41. 41
Diversity Implications
Managers have to shift their philosophy from
treating everyone alike to recognizing differences
and responding to those differences in ways that
ensure employee retention and greater
productivity.

53. “…whose values and competencies
enable them to realize their full potential…”
Rousseau’s Philosophy
We prepare the child to live life by attainment
of fullest natural growth leading to balanced,
harmonious and useful life. The focus
of Émile is upon the individual tuition of a
boy/young man in line with the principles of
‘natural education’. ‘Make the citizen good
by training’, Jean-Jacques Rousseau
writes, ‘and everything else will follow’.
54. “…and contribute meaningfully to
building the nation.”
Plato’s Philosophy
This aim, on the other hand, doesn’t focus
on personal growth but the service of the
state, which is a guarantor of the
happiness of its citizens, for as long as
they allow it to be the embodiment of
justice.
56. Students learn in a child-friendly,
gender-sensitive, safe,
and motivating environment.
Epicureanism
Primary purpose of this philosophy was to
attain happy and tranquil life. All societies
are based solely on an agreement of men
not to harm each other— a mutual
advantage.
57. Students learn in a child-friendly,
gender-sensitive, safe,
and motivating environment.
Plato’s Philosophy
Motivation and interest plays a vital
role in learning. He was against the
use of force of education.
58. Teachers facilitate learning and
constantly nurture every learner.
Plato’s Philosophy
The educator is considered to have
great importance, thus he is the
constant guide of the students.
59. Administrators and staff, as stewards of
the Institution, ensure an enabling and
supportive environment for effective
learning to happen.
Epicureanism
Goodness: Such an existence in the
company of a few like-minded friends will
provide the reassurance and good fellowship
necessary for peace of mind, ataraxia.
60. Administrators and staff, as
stewards of the Institution,
ensure an enabling and supportive
environment for effective learning to
happen.
Plato’s Philosophy
An educator is like a torch bearer who
leads students from dark cave of
innocence into the bright light of
knowledge.

passed through one or more available channels (five
senses) and through some medium.
85. Acceptance and Action
Acceptance implies a willingness on the part of the
receiver to comply with message and the action
phase entails implementation of the communiqué or
message.

99. BARRIERS TO EFFECTIVE
COMMUNICATION
Filtering - Refers to a
sender’s purposely
manipulating information so it
will be seen favourably by the
receiver.
Selective Perception - The
receivers in the
communication process
selectively see and hear based
on their needs, motivations,
experience, background, and
other personal characteristics.
100. BARRIERS TO EFFECTIVE
COMMUNICATION
Information Overload - A
condition which information
inflow exceeds an individual’s
processing capacity.
Emotions - How the receiver
feels at the time of receipt of a
communication influences
how he or she interprets it.
101. BARRIERS TO EFFECTIVE
COMMUNICATION
Language - Even when were
communicating in the same
language, words mean different
things to different people.
Communication Apprehension -
People who suffer from it experience
undue tension and anxiety in oral
communication, written
communication or both.
102. BARRIERS TO EFFECTIVE
COMMUNICATION
Gender differences - are sometimes a barrier to
effective communication. Men tend to use talk to
emphasize status, whereas women tend to use it
to create connections.
Political Correct Communication - there are also
situations in which our desire to avoid offense
blocks communication (by keeping us from
saying what’s really on our mind) or alters our
communication in such a way as to make it
unclear.
103. GLOBAL IMPLICATIONS
Cultural Barriers
Barriers caused by
word connotations.
Barriers cause by
differences among
perceptions.
Barrier caused by
semantics.
Barriers caused by tone
differences
104. GLOBAL IMPLICATIONS
Cultural Context
Low – context cultures -
They rely heavily on non
verbal and subtle situational
cues in communicating with
others.
High – context cultures -
They rely essentially on words
to convey meaning.
105. Communication Skills For Managers as
Receivers
Pay attention to what is sent as a message.
Be a good listener: don’t interrupt.
Ask questions to clarify your understanding.
Be empathetic: try to understand what the sender
feels.
Understand linguistic styles: different people
speak differently.
Speed, tone, pausing all impact communication.
16-105
107. What is listening?
Listening…. the psychological process
of receiving, attending to,
constructing meaning from, and
responding to spoken or nonverbal
messages
Hearing = physiological
Listening = psychological
108. Listening V/S Hearing
Hearing- physical process; natural; passive
Listening- physical & mental process;
active; learned process; a skill
Listening is hard!
You must choose to participate in the
process of listening.
109. 85% of what we know is from
listening
45%of our time is spent on listening
A person recalls 50%of what they
just heard
….only 20%of it is remembered long
term
110. Listening is learned first and used most, but
taught least.
Learned Used Taught
Listening 1st Most (45%) Least
Speaking 2nd Next most (35%) Next least
Reading 3rd Next least (16%) Next most
Writing 4th Least (9%) Most
115. Listening leads to learning
…openness encourages personal
growth and learning
116. Listening reduces stress and
tension
…minimizes confusion and
misunderstanding, eliminating
related stress and tension
117. Listening is CRITICAL
in conflict resolution
…much conflict comes from the
need to be heard. Successful
resolution depends on being a
non-anxious presence.
118. Why Be A Good Listener?
To be recognized and remembered
To feel valued
To feel appreciated
To feel respected
To feel understood
To feel comfortable about a want or
need
120. LISTENING AND EDUCATION
Students do not have a clear concept
of listening as an active process that
they can control. Students find it
easier to criticize the speaker as
opposed to the speaker’s message
(Imhof, 1998).
121. LISTENING AND LEADERS
Listening is tied to effective
leadership
(Bechler & Johnson, 1995;Johnson & Bechler, 1998).
Leaders listen with an open
mind by not becoming
emotional or defensive
(Orick, 2002).
122. Process of listening
Understanding
Learning
Remembering
Recalling
Evaluating
Judging
Receiving
Hearing
Responding
Answering
123. Receiving
It refers to the response caused by sound
waves stimulating the sensory receptors of
the ear; it is physical response.
Understanding
It is the stage at which you learn what the
speaker means-the thoughts and emotional
tone.
124. Remembering
It is important listening process because it
means that an individual has not only received
and interpreted a message but has also
added it to the mind's storage bank.
But just as our attention is selective, so too
is our memory- what is remembered may be
quite different from what was originally seen
or heard.
125. Evaluating
It consists of judging the messages in some way.
At times, you may try to evaluate the speaker’s
underlying intentions or motives.
Often this evaluation process goes on without much
conscious awareness.
Responding
This stage requires that the receiver complete the
process through verbal and/or nonverbal feedback;
because the speaker has no other way to
determine if a message has been received .
This stage becomes the only overt means by which
the sender may determine the degree of success in
transmitting the message.
127. STYLES OF EFFECTIVE LISTENING
Participatory-Passive listening
Empathic-Objective listening
Non judgmental- Critical listening
Surface-Depth listening
Active-Inactive listening
128. Participatory-Passive listening
Active participation
Physically & mentally engage in the sharing of
meaning
Elements
Non-Verbal: Eye contact, facial expressions
Verbal: questions, back channeling cues such
as “I see” “yes” “uh-huh” etc
129. Participatory-Passive listening
Listening without talking
Powerful means of communicating
acceptance
Passive listener: suspends judgment and
just listens
Who accepts, not evaluate. Who
supports, not intrude
130. Empathic-Objective listening
To listen empathically
Feel with them
See the world as they see
Feel what they feel
It helps you understand what a person
means & what the person is feeling
131. Empathic-Objective listening
Listen with objectivity and detachment
See beyond other person sees
Example: A teacher & student
(Empathic) (1+1 = 11)
(Objective) (1+1 = 2)
132. Non judgmental- Critical listening
Listen with open mind
Avoid distorting messages
Avoid filtering out unpleasant or
undesirable message
Recognize your own ethnic, national, or
religious biases, (it may increase or
minimize importance because it confirms or
contradicts your biases)
133. Non judgmental- Critical listening
Name calling- involves giving an idea
e.g. (“atheist” “neo-Nazi” “cult”) to make you accept
things you value high, like (“democracy” “free
speech” “academic freedom”)
Testimonial- use image associated to with person to
gain approval, (if you respect the person) to gain
rejection (if you disrespect the person)
e.g. advertisement: use person dressed like doctors,
use phrase “dentists advice”
Bandwagon- used to persuade to accept or reject an
idea because “everybody is doing it”
e.g. “draw Mohammad day” & “switch to Pakbuk”
135. Surface-Depth listening
Hidden, deep meaning
(In depth communication)
Why they are saying?
E.g.: “The patient is very serious”
