The overall document serves as a guide for students to learn about communication concepts from an organizational behavior textbook.
This document discusses job satisfaction, including its definition, methods of measuring it, antecedents and consequences. It examines theoretical perspectives on satisfaction and its relationship to job performance, absenteeism, and turnover. While satisfaction was hypothesized to positively impact these areas, research finds only weak-to-modest correlations. Satisfaction appears most closely tied to "volitional" workplace behaviors like organizational citizenship and voluntary retention, rather than involuntary outcomes. A satisfied workforce has benefits, but satisfaction is one of many influencing factors.
This chapter discusses theories of motivation. It begins by defining motivation as the processes that account for an individual's intensity, direction, and persistence of effort toward attaining an organizational goal. Early theories discussed include Maslow's hierarchy of needs, McGregor's Theory X and Y, Herzberg's two-factor theory, and McClelland's three needs theory. Contemporary theories covered are self-determination theory, job engagement, goal-setting theory and management by objectives, self-efficacy theory, equity theory, and expectancy theory.
The document discusses the topic of job satisfaction. It defines job satisfaction as a pleasurable emotional state resulting from one's job or job experiences.

The document outlines several theories of job satisfaction, including the facet model, Herzberg's motivator-hygiene theory, the discrepancy model, and the steady-state theory. It discusses potential consequences of job satisfaction such as performance, absenteeism, turnover, organizational citizenship behavior, and worker well-being. The document provides advice for managers on understanding and improving job satisfaction.
IN this slide we will understand the communication and information technology in Management that how to use the information technology and communication in an organization.
The document discusses Job Design Theory and the Job Characteristics Model. It describes the five core job dimensions identified by the model - skill variety, task identity, task significance, autonomy, and feedback. Jobs that score highly on these dimensions are likely to lead to increased motivation, performance, and job satisfaction for employees. The document also discusses how jobs can be redesigned through approaches like job rotation, enlargement, and enrichment in order to improve motivation.

This document discusses job satisfaction. It defines job satisfaction as a positive emotional state resulting from one's job or job experiences. Job satisfaction has emotional, cognitive, and behavioral components and can be influenced by life satisfaction and influence life satisfaction in turn. The document examines the links between job satisfaction and other variables like job performance, absenteeism, and turnover. While job satisfaction is linked to these variables, the links are often weak and influenced by other factors. The document also discusses Herzberg's two-factor theory of job satisfaction and the exit-voice-loyalty-neglect framework for how employees respond to job dissatisfaction. Overall job dissatisfaction can lead employees to neglect their jobs, exit an organization, or use their voice
Concept that people derive job satisfaction and motivation by comparing their efforts (inputs) and income (outcomes) with those of the other people in the same or other firms.
Job satisfaction is how content an individual is with his or her job.Scholars and human resource professionals generally make a distinction between affective job satisfaction and cognitive job satisfaction.

This document summarizes a paper that examines how an individual's job satisfaction is impacted by their own promotions or income increases as well as those of their partner, coworkers, and others in their region and cohort. The authors find that while one's own promotions and income increases positively impact job satisfaction, similar successes of others, especially a partner, tend to reduce one's satisfaction. They conclude that job satisfaction has relative components and is influenced by social comparisons, though there may be individual differences in how much people compare themselves. The discussant questions what implications this has for economic and social justice policies.
The document describes a case study involving an employee named Ravi Shankar who discovers that a new hire with an IIT degree is being paid slightly more than him despite having less experience.

Both individual initiatives like time management and relaxation techniques, as well as organizational initiatives like modifying work stressors and employee assistance programs are presented as ways to manage stress.
This document discusses organizational justice perceptions, which are employee judgments about fairness in the workplace. There are three main types of justice perceptions: distributive justice regarding fairness of outcomes, procedural justice regarding fairness of decision-making processes, and interactional justice regarding interpersonal treatment and informative explanations. Managing perceptions of organizational justice is important because justice perceptions have been linked to job satisfaction, commitment, performance, and withdrawal behaviors. Providing explanations for decisions and treating employees with respect can positively influence fairness perceptions.
This document discusses emotions, moods, attitudes, and job satisfaction. It defines emotions as strong positive or negative feelings directed at something, while moods are more generalized feelings or states of mind. Attitudes are predispositions to respond positively or negatively to someone/something and have cognitive, affective, and behavioral components. Job satisfaction is an attitude reflecting positive or negative views about one's job and is influenced by work environment/events as well as personal predispositions. High job satisfaction can lead to better performance and organizational citizenship behaviors while low satisfaction causes withdrawal behaviors like absenteeism.
