Emotions And Moods - Organizational Behavior - PsychologyFaHaD .H. NooR
Introduces us the the concepts of emotions and moods and their effects on Organizational Behavior. These are concepts that have only recently received increased attention in research and practice.As mentioned, emotions and moods were dismissed by OB for a long time. One of the primary reasons was the “Myth of Rationality” that suggested that OB comprised rational concepts and applications and emotions and moods were seen as highly irrational. Emotions were thought to be disruptive of organizational activity and decreased productivity. Because they were perceived as irrational the belief was that they were unpredictable and therefore not easily influenced. We now know this is untrue.Affect is a generic term that covers a broad range of feelings people experience. This includes both emotions and moods. Emotions are intense feelings that are directed at someone or something. Moods are the feelings that tend to be less intense than emotions and that lack a contextual stimulus.
The document discusses attitudes and job satisfaction. It defines attitudes as having three components - cognition, affect, and behavior. Job satisfaction is evaluated as a positive feeling about one's job. The major causes of job satisfaction discussed are personality and pay (up to a comfortable living wage). When employees are dissatisfied, they may respond actively like quitting or passively like decreased performance. High job satisfaction is linked to improved performance, lower turnover, and increased organizational citizenship behaviors. However, levels of satisfaction can vary across cultures.

Rule of RBI in Foreign Exchange market / managementMd Yeakub Hossain
The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) plays several key roles in managing the country's economy and financial system. As the central bank, it regulates foreign exchange by administering the Foreign Exchange Management Act and regulating transactions in the external sector. It also regulates banks and other financial institutions by setting capital requirements, monitoring governance, and prescribing prudential regulations. Additionally, the RBI regulates the credit system by controlling the volume of credit created by banks through tools like cash reserve and statutory liquidity ratios.
India has a high level of biodiversity, with many domesticated plant and animal species. Biodiversity refers to the variety of living organisms on Earth, including diversity at the genetic, species, and ecosystem levels. It is created by complex interactions between all living things. There are three main levels of biodiversity - genetic diversity within species, species diversity between different types of plants and animals, and ecosystem diversity which refers to different habitats. Biodiversity is valuable as it provides resources humans rely on for survival like food, medicine, and materials. It also maintains ecological balance and provides aesthetic and cultural benefits.
An ecosystem is defined as a system consisting of all living organisms in an area interacting with each other and the non-living components of their environment. The key components of an ecosystem include producers, consumers, and decomposers as the living or biotic components, which interact with abiotic or non-living factors like physical and chemical conditions. Ecosystems transfer energy through food chains and food webs, and can be modeled using ecological pyramids that show the biomass or numbers of organisms at different trophic levels. Ecosystems are dynamic systems that undergo succession over time towards a climax community.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

Historically the study of organizational behavior has not given much attention to emotions. Emotions were typically seen as irrational so managers tended to work to make the workplace emotion-free.
Often managers viewed emotions as disruptive to the workplace and therefore a hindrance to productivity. However, when thinking about emotions, typically managers were focusing on negative emotions. Even though there are some negative emotions that could hinder productivity, there is no doubt that workers bring their emotions to the workplace. Therefore, any study in organizational behavior would not be complete without considering the roles of emotions in the workplace.
Affect is a generic term that covers a broad range of feelings people experience. This includes both emotions and moods. Emotions are intense feelings that are directed at someone or something. Moods are the feelings that tend to be less intense than emotions and that lack a contextual stimulus.
Not all psychologists agree; however, there do seem to be six basic emotions that emerge in studies: anger, fear, sadness, happiness, disgust, surprise. All other emotions fall under these six. Some psychologists even place these basic six on a spectrum of emotion.
Our basic moods carry positive and negative affects, they cannot be neutral. Emotions are grouped into general mood states. These states impact how employees perceive reality and thereby the moods can impact the work of employees.
There are some who think that emotions are linked to irrationality and that expressing emotions in public may be damaging to your career or status. However, research has shown that emotions are necessary for rational thinking. They help us make better decisions and help us understand the world around us. If we are going to make decisions, we need to incorporate both thinking and feeling.
There are many things that impact our mood and emotions. Personality is a key component and will definitely impact the intensity of the emotions we feel. The day and time of the week is a common pattern for all of us. Many are happier toward the end of the week. Weather is thought to have an impact on our emotions, but there is no proven effect.
Stress is an important factor and even at low levels it can cause our mood to change. It is important to maintain a low level of stress to help us control our psychological as well as our physical health. Social activities have been shown to have a positive impact on our moods. This could be physical outlets such as playing in a basketball league or it can be going out to dinner with friends. These types of activities are found to have a positive impact on our mood.
Some additional sources of emotion and mood include such factors as sleep and exercise. It is important to get enough and high-quality levels of sleep. Physical activity can also aid in keeping our moods upbeat.
Some characteristics that are beyond our control can impact our moods, such as age and gender. Elderly people tend to have fewer negative emotions. Women tend to express their emotions readily and their moods tend to last longer. Research has shown that this is due more to cultural socialization than to biology.
In many jobs there is an implied agreement on the types of emotions that should be expressed. For example, waitresses are supposed to be friendly and cheerful, whether they are currently feeling that emotion or not. When employees don’t feel the emotion they are required to express, they may experience emotional dissonance. This can lead to burnout and frustration with the job.
An employee’s actual emotions are their felt emotions and this is in contrast to the emotions that are required or deemed appropriate, which are called displayed emotions. There are two levels of displayed emotions that can be expressed. They are both appropriately called acting. Surface acting is when an employee displays the appropriate emotions even when they don’t feel those emotions. Deep acting is when the employee actually changes their internal feelings to match displayed rules; this level of acting can be very stressful.
Affective Events Theory demonstrates that employees react emotionally to things that happen to them at work and this can influence their job performance and job satisfaction. The intensity of these responses will be based on emotion and mood.
AET has a number of implications. These implications are as follows:
When an employee has an emotional episode, it is actually the result of a series of emotional experiences that are triggered by a single event.
Your job satisfaction is impacted by current and past emotions.
As your emotions fluctuate over time, it will create variations in job performance.
Behaviors that are driven by emotions are typically brief and variable.
Both positive and negative emotions can distract workers and reduce job performance.
In summary, emotions do provide very valuable information and predict factors about behavior. In addition, it is important not to ignore minor events as they will accumulate over time.
Emotional Intelligence (EI) is a growing area of study and is becoming increasingly important in the understanding of individual behavior. EI is pulling in one’s understanding of emotions and their impact on behavior. An individual who is emotionally intelligent will have a strong sense of self-awareness, recognizing your own emotions when experienced. They are also able to detect emotions in others. By understanding their own emotions and those of others, they can manage emotional cues and information to make decisions.
EI plays a very important role in job performance; however, the jury is still out on the role EI plays in effectiveness in organizations.
There are numerous applications of emotions and moods. These include selection of employees, decision making, creativity, motivation, and leadership.
Some additional applications of emotions and mood include negotiation, customer service, job attitudes, deviant workplace behaviors, and manager’s influence.
Across cultures there do not seem to be differences in how people experience emotions. However, it is shown that in different cultures there are different interpretations of emotions. Some cultures are more accepting of emotional expression than others. When you are engaging with other cultures, be sure to understand their cultural norms.
In summary, moods and emotions are important to the study of organizational behavior. Also, they are natural expressions and managers should not try to completely control the employees’ emotions, but they should be aware of the emotions and not ignore emotional indicators. This is because the more you understand the emotions of your employees, the better you will able to predict their behavior.
