Organizational BehaviorOrganizational BehaviorAn organization is simply made up of different elements (employees) with different functions (jobs) that all contribute to the whole function of the business (the company). The success of an organization is based upon how well the employees (the elements) come together to perform their functions. This paper will define Organizational Behavior, Organizational Culture, Diversity, Communication, Change Management, and Ethics, followed by a few examples of how they are applied in the work environment.
Organizational Behavior is defined as “the study of humans and group behavior within an organizational settings” (BNET), Studying the behaviors of a an organization’s employee’s is vital to the success of an organization and entails regular analysis of their employees personalities, their relationships with one another, the productivity, performance, commitment, job satisfaction of their employees, and the intensity of organizational commitment and business relations. An organizations leadership influences organizational behavior, the management styles within the business and its corporate culture. The final outcomes are performance, individual satisfaction, and personal growth and development. All these elements combine to build the model or framework that the organization operates from. An example of Organizational Behavior within my current company is every six months our human resources department conducts a survey taken by every employee in the company. There the employee is asked a series of questions that pertain to their feelings about their jobs, departments, their management and the company as a whole. These surveys are then published with the results as well as an announcement from our CEO stating the findings and the direction the company will take to improve any areas of concern. Letting the employee know that his/her voice is being heard eventually uplifting company wide moral.
Edgar Schein, a well known theorist stated that “organizational culture, A pattern of shared basic assumptions that the group learned as it solved its problems of external adaptation and internal integration, that has worked well enough to be considered valid and therefore, to be taught to new members as the correct way to perceive, think, and feel in relation to those problems” (Schein 373-374). The people within a company depend on culture as it gives them stability, security, understanding, and the ability to respond to a given situation. They depend on beliefs, customs, knowledge, and practices that influence their behavior and they are able to adapt to their surroundings and work with one another in different situations and scenarios.
The definition of a culture is a series of laws, customs, and practices that guide the behaviour of employees of the company, by which they are expected to conform to their company culture. Cops are typically told, among other things, to follow those laws and customs in a way that fosters and enhances their company culture.
There is an important difference between a culture and a private police force – both are involved in the same job. When a local police force is involved in an ongoing, systemic crime, then the police force that controls it is subject to different laws and the authorities of the local jurisdiction are the same. The police force must obey all and act according to law and regulations, with or without the consent of another law enforcement officer, and can, thus, not be charged in any way for a crime. Similarly, when the police force is involved in a national civil strife, the police officer can be charged and/or can be fired in any manner necessary, including in cases of an international dispute which, at the time of writing, has taken place in a country where all civil society groups are engaged in a common struggle against law and order problems. This is a “civil society” as it is based on one standard set of values, with the rule stating “there is only one standard set of principles, one culture, one common standard, and one common sense rule of the law”, which is the same across all cultures.
The question is, where does that “culture”” come from, and with whom did it come from the founding of this country, the United States, the Soviet Union, or the USA? For the first time in human history, individuals and organizations based around this kind of group were able to act as agents that could be called upon to deal with internal issues of conflict and human rights, or to deal with national and global problems of struggle in an efficient one-step process.
According to the U.S.-Soviet Union, “the United States and its territories, as a matter of national sovereignty, do not have any international laws or principles that distinguish it from any other region or territory”. This meant no US law that would even define U.S. rights as national or world-wide rights, which the Soviets knew, even at the time, was something of a blunder. That same year, after the Soviet Union was invaded via the US invasion of Afghanistan, the US Supreme Court decided that the Soviet government’s intervention was justified and a second, international tribunal was held in Paris to decide the subject. On November 24, 2005 on the same day, there was a coup, in which the coup d’etat led to what would become known as the Uprising of April 18. The first two rebellions were organised and led by Mikhail Gorbachev who had previously been exiled from the USSR by the United States. The Uprising caused an economic collapse, which resulted in the imposition of sanctions on the USSR. That

Diversity in the workplace refers to a variety of different people within an organization. Diversity includes race, age, personality, ethnicity, gender, educational background, organizational function, cognitive style, and tenure among others. Diversity causes employees to get to know and work with one another and it exposes them to different perspectives of one another, and influences employee relations. Most organizations embrace a diverse working environment and are always expanding their resources to manage diversity in the workplace, increasing effective communication and adaptation to constant changing cultural environments. A company may benefit from having a diverse workforce, providing a larger collection of ideas and experiences within the company that are used to gather business tactics and meet customer’s expectations for the better of the company.
Communication is simply the interaction among people working together to achieve common goals. People are able to relate to each and work together through communication. In order for an organization to be effective and successful there must be a huge emphasis on communication and employee relations, which are important and vital to a successful workflow. In a work environment the purpose of good communication is to ensure that the production of work is consistent and employees are able to communicate to different levels of management as needed.
Ethics is the practice of ethical behavior within a company. It encompasses a professional conduct standard. An organizations code of ethics is a publishing of the companies moral beliefs and values that the company feel is important and is a mirror of the company’s over
