Organizational behavior is the study of how individuals, groups, and structures behave within organizations. It aims to describe, understand, predict, and control human behavior in organizations. Organizational behavior draws from various social sciences like psychology, sociology, social psychology, and anthropology. It applies scientific methods to systematically observe and measure individual behaviors in organizations. The goal is to help organizations function more effectively by understanding employee behaviors and how to motivate productive behaviors. Organizational behavior is important for uncovering hidden attitudes, explaining and predicting behaviors, acquiring people skills, and developing judgments for handling people and situations.
