Discussion:

Ever since the existence of mankind, man strives to be useful

in any of his endeavors for survival either for himself or for a
group. In his ventures for achieving his aspirations, he always
encounters the threat of failure and the risk in his association with
others, which mean, himself and others.
 My dear students, be attentive to the following discussion.
Take note of this icon because it presents the topics to be
discussed. Exercises await you after.
Overview of the Meaning of Human Behavior or
Organizational Behavior
Medina defines human behavior as pertaining to the
actions of a person that can be seen or heard such as showing
smiling or whistling. With all these feelings within him, he
portrays the same behavior when is alone, with other people or
when he is within an organization. This is referred to as
organizational behavior (OB). (Medina, 2013).
Organizational behavior (OB) is the implementation of
learning and theories about how people as individuals and as
groups behave within an organization (Newstrom and Davies,
2007). It provides ways in which individuals can act more
appropriately and in conformity with organization standard.
An organization is considered a social system composed of
individuals working together to attain common goals and
objectives. OB, then, searches knowledge of behavior within the
organization by methodically studying the behavior of the person
within a group or as part of an organization. (Greenberg and
Baron, 2008).
There are four organizational processes that identify
rational and productive organizational competence:
a. Leadership. Leadership shows the path towards
achieving the company’s goals with the help of persons
who possess character considered necessary in
managing an organization.
b. Communication. Communication is an important
factor in every organization because it connects the
organization’s vision to its employees and to the
environment where it serves.
c. Decision Making. Decision making shows the
methods and techniques on how to achieve the
organization’s aspiration through good decision making.
d. Organizational Change and Development. In
order to grow and make the organization adapt to
modification, the company implements the concepts of
change, how it is performed, and how it enhances
organizational efficiency.
Efficiency and Effectiveness Defined and
Differentiated
Being effective means performing the anticipated
outcome or the achievement of purpose. Being efficient is
increasing output with low input and with the least wastage of
time and effort. Being effective is performing the appropriate
things and being efficient is performing things in the appropriate
manner.
 Being efficient means performing things quickly which
results to lesser wastage of time and effort. Being effective
means the capability of an individual to concentrate in realizing his
goals. Being effective means the individual gives importance in
realizing his goals by drawing the best results with the least waste
of time and exertion of power. Being efficient is related to a
game of numbers: counting out accomplished outputs with the
least or minimum cost of effort and time.
Being effective means identifying the priorities, what
should be done first, the ways on how it should be done before
the actual performance. Efficiency comes in to determine if tasks
are done with the least waste of time and effort.
Organization’s Mission/Vision Statements
An organization is created for a purpose based on its
aspiration and hopes to be achieved in the future. This is shown
in its mission statement. A mission statement reflects the purpose
of why the company is created and how it functions for its
existence.
A vision statement presents the company’s “dream” or
envision of what it wants to become in a period of time.
A company’s goals include its identified actions for a given
period of time, how to perform its functions and attains its desired
result for a period of time. A company also determines its
corporate philosophy and values which it portrays within the
organization and to the community where it serves. Company
philosophy simply pictures what the organization believes in.
Organizational Environment
In answer to the demands of the society, the
organization must be adaptive to changes in society. Figure 1
presents the environmental factors that any organization should
be aware of and consider in order for it to successfully function
and serve both the people within the organization and those
outside the organization. These factors are: customers, legal and
political constraints, economic, social and technological factors as
presented below.
Customers Legal and Political
Constraints
ORGANIZATION
Social
Technological
Figure 1. The Organizational Environment Continuum

Philippine Organizations. Philippines: Rex Book Store: 2013
A productive organization works around a connection,
where the organization is the center. Customers are considered
the life blood of the organization and the main source of income.
The organization should always aspire for quality products and
services for the customer’s satisfaction. The organization should
also consider some political and legal restrictions. It is wise for
the organization to follow the implementing rules and guidelines
for its operations. Likewise, social environment is composed of
the community where the organization is serving therefore, the
organization should perform its functions strictly following
standards acceptable by society. Technology is another important
factor in the organization’s operations and existence. The
organization should be adaptive to modern technology and be
abreast with the changes as it ventures in the modern age. This
can be realized through pleasant relationships with its association
with distributors that provide the appropriate resources including
modern machineries and equipment that the organization needs
for its operation.
Exemplary Values that Spell Success
It is known that an organization can gain profits based
on the principles adapted and what the organization believe that is
good can bring a great advantage to the organization.
Levi Strauss, a well-known brand of jeans which started its
operation in the 1800s believed in the following values which
brought competitive advantage to the company and made the
brand a famous one. Below are the set of values that brought
success:
 Empathy – putting ourselves in other people’s
shoes
Empathy starts with being conscious to the
happenings around us as part of the environment. It is an
ability to listen and understand people’s needs and wants.
By putting ourselves on the part of our customers,
employees, and other stakeholders, we can offer the
appropriate services and catering to their needs.
 Originality – being true and creative
Being original is being unique. The first pair of blue
jeans started in 1873 which at present still spreads
throughout the present market set-up. Through innovative
products and practices, businesses do something in a
completely new way to suite the present demand of the
market. Revisions may be done but maintaining the
authenticity of the brand.
 Integrity – doing things we consider right
Integrity means performing with honesty and giving the
right things and services for the employees, company, and
society as a whole. Ethical conduct and social
responsibility determine the organization’s way of giving
the right service and doing business with honesty and
integrity.
 Courage – being brave and standing up for what
we believe
Courage makes us feel more confident with a
feeling of greatness and full of hope. Courage helps us to
be truthful and bravely face the changes in the
organization’s set-up, its norms and standards. Courage
also entails being firm with our convictions and act
according to what is right and acceptable as part of our
beliefs.

Lesson 2. Good luck!!
My dear students, be attentive to the following
discussion. Take note of this icon because it presents the
topics to be discussed in this section. Exercises
await you after.
Organizational Culture Overview
Organizational culture has been discovered and
created by a given group of experts as it ventures to encounter
problems in both external adjustment and internal incorporation
being applied and considered good enough to be introduced to the
members especially the new ones as conforming to the correct
way to behave specifically on how we perceive, think, and feel in
connection to solving these problems.
There are three layers of culture: (1) layer 1 includes
observable artifacts and creations which are often hard to
understand; (2) layer 2 are the things considered important to
people; and (3) layer 3 are the basic presumptions that guide
people on how to behave.

Socialization and Culture
Socialization is one of the processes of welcoming new
recruits or new members to the organization. It is a never-ending
process throughout the career life of the person as it is the means
of transmitting the values, behavior, practices and customary
patterns of thought, action or behavior in the workplace from old
employees to the younger ones.
Stages of Socialization
1. Anticipatory Socialization. In this stage, the new
employee should obtain as much information as possible
about th job and the company before joining the
organization. This will give him a picture of what to expect
once he joins the company. To be effective, the
recruitment process should present a well-defined
recruitment policy and procedure that would give enough
information about the company and what is being expected
from the job. During the hiring process, the individual
should be made aware on his possible professional
advancement in the organization.
2. Accommodation. In this stage, the individual is now
part of the organization and performs his duties and
responsibilities that are in harmony with the organization’s
culture. The newly hired employee makes relationships
with coworkers and superiors and begins to adapt the new
environment and internalizing the present organization’s
culture by identifying his functions and role in the
organization thereby knowing his assigned tasks and
responsibilities. To be effective, the company should
conduct orientation activities and training programs,
presents tasks that would arouse competitive interest, and
performance evaluation practices that give the employee
the chance to grow and motivate employees to become
productive.
3. Role Management. Incorporated with relationships and
performing assigned responsibilities are problems and
conflicts that may emerge as the organization continues to
operate. In this instance, the new employee tries to
concern himself in dealing with problems between his work
and home or between himself and co-employees or with
his superior. To be effective, the organization should have
a good communication system to address problems and
provide counseling sessions when needed. Among other
important things to be considered by the organization is
how to deal with stress effectively. When an employee is
satisfied with his work, this will lead to job satisfaction and
lessen conflict, absenteeism, and employee turnover.
The socialization process in the organization must be
effectively managed. Otherwise, this will lead to problems in
terms of its effectiveness and employees will have a complicated
way of adjusting and performing their roles in the organization.
Failure of the socialization process would also entail wastage of
organization’s resources specifically in the recruitment, hiring, and
employee turnover. The results would mean poor performance
and poor coordination in achieving its goals and objectives.

Can Organizational Culture Be Changed?
An organizational culture is composed of varied
characteristics that are present over the years. It is deeply
implanted with high regard values, customs, traditions, and norms
that strengthened and uphold as true, just and reasonable in
realizing the organization’s mission/vision statements, corporate
philosophy, and other organization’s administrative practices
including its structures, organizational setup, plans and programs,
and other important functions of the organization pertaining to the
welfare of its employees.
Cultural change may happen when the following situations
arise:
 A crisis or state of emergency. This happens
when the problems arise and affect the present
state of affairs of the organization. Examples: a
hard to bear financial loss; organization’s
performance is far beyond industry standing; a loss
of a prominent and prestigious customer or a
sudden advance and change in technology.
 Turnover in leadership. This happens when the
organization has a new competent management
replacing the incapable one. In this process, the
organization can adapt the new set of values that
are introduced by the new management that bring
solution of the present problem of the organization.
 Young and small organizations. It is easy to
manage young and small organizations since the
set up is not complicated and the introduction of
the new set of values can be easily communicated.
 Weak culture. Changing weak culture in the
organization is not complicated as it is not
established solidly and put into practice among the
employees.
Ivancevich and Matteson identified five interposing
strategies to introduce cultural change in the organization:
(Zarate, C. 2013):
a. Behavioral change of the people.
b. Benefits of the change are properly explained.
c. Motivation to change can be done through communication
in form of memos and other ways to induce action.
d. A good socialization process may be employed to motivate
new members.
e. To get rid of existing members of the organization who
differ markedly from the group’s norm and depart from the
established organizational culture.
The culture of an organization can provide desirable
advantage which likewise be nurtured and become a competitive
edge. This can be explained in the following identified elements:
The first element: The evolution of a corporate culture
that gives emphasis to the organization’s history and heritage. The
organization gives importance to its beginning, its history and past
experiences as contributory factors in attaining the present and
assist in developing the sense of appreciation of the
organization’s history.
 The second element: The spirit of oneness and unity
among employees. This is the reflection of the organization’s
corporate values. These values sum up the organization’s
principles.
Last, the organization should produce an empowered
mindset, where employees are given the chance to participate in
decision making and are free to work on their own. This kind of
environment is appropriate to open communication and employees
are willing to share their talents and skills openly contributing to
the achievement of its corporate goals.
Credo and Corporate Social Responsibility
The credo of the organization presents the culture of an
organization. It incorporates the values, attitudes, practices, and
ethics of the organization.
An organization should possess corporate social
responsibility which connotes that organization does not merely
into gaining profits but has to consider and put emphasis on its
goals for the betterment of the society. In doing so, the
organization should act in accordance to acceptable standards and
play a significant part improving and alleviating the way of life of
its employees as well as the society.
There are four aspects of corporate responsibility and
these are the following:
 Economic. It is the role and responsibility of the
company to provide income for its owners.
 Legal. It is the role and responsibility of the
organization to comply with all the requirements set by
the government for its operation and act in
consonance with the law.
 Ethical. It is the role and responsibility of the
organization to give services considered just and
appropriate based on what is right and fair for all.
 Voluntary and philanthropic. It is the role and
responsibility of the organization to maintain
organization’s goodwill and promote human welfare
through community services and performing charitable
works and projects.
Workplace Spirituality
Workplace spirituality does not only believing in the
goodness of our creator, the religious practices or theology, but
recognizing the importance of spiritual life to people. This inner
life is strengthened and nourished by meaningful work not only in
the organization but most especially in the community and society
at large.
At present, the study of feelings has greatly flourished our
comprehension about organizational behavior. With workplace
spirituality, OB experts can have a wide range of knowledge in
understanding employee behavior and attitude in this age of
modernization.
Cultural Characteristics of Spiritual
Organizations
Workplace spirituality covers deliberations on what we
believe is right, what we believe is acceptable, what opts us to
move forward, and the kind of leadership we want to have.
Spiritual organizations are believed to be more warmhearted and
encourages people to be productive and guide them attain their
goals in life. These organizations are fair and just in its
relationship with employees giving importance to the provisions of  Toleration empowerment. Spiritual

characteristics are explained below: organization. Top management provides counseling

 Strong sense of purpose. Spiritual organizations
provide clear picture of what the company wants to
become in the future or its vision; the reasons and
purpose of its existence or its mission, which
revolve around a meaningful purpose. They are not
focusing after the gains or profits but give
importance to the welfare of its employees. They
form strong values for employees to follow.

 Focus on individual development. Spiritual

organizations acknowledge the capabilities of
people. They give chance to employees to learn
and grow. They create a culture that offers

equally.
