Organizational behavior can be analyzed at three levels - the individual, group, and organizational levels. At the individual level, it involves studying things like learning, motivation, and personality. At the group level, it focuses on dynamics, leadership, and roles. At the organizational level, it examines culture, structure, change, and the external environment. Organizational behavior draws from different fields depending on the level of analysis, such as psychology for the individual level and sociology for the group level.
