Like prediction & observation.But
not fully precise so “soft science”
OB & field of management - both
seems synonymous but not so.
OB is narrower as behavioural
approach of management. OB is
not whole management
people
By Dubrin- 4 core proposition
1.Follow human behave princi
2. OB is situational
3. Based on system approach-
ORG inter related & inter locking
Structure Technology subsystems having functional
Interaction of ppl,str & tech with & dysfunctional interactions
envt determine OB in organisatn -Constant interaction between
Also called dimension of OB structure & process variable

Objective/Adv/Significance Limitations of OB Challenges of OB- Due to Org Behavior Org Theory

-Motivated/satisfied worker
- Improved communication
- Better org design/Hierachy
- Changes & development
- Better mgr worker relation
- Effective working climate
- Understanding self & other
Like individual inter personal
& group behaviour
-Descriptive not prescriptive dynamic field of OB as follows -Micro analysis -Macro analysis
- More theoritical & based on - Globalisation of business -Interpersonal -envt & structure
principle,unable to solve issue - Work force diversity -Human relationist -Classist approach
- Has managerial bias - Highly aspirational workers -Socio-psycho -Socio - technical
- Based on poor assumptions - Empowered employees
like people lack self discipline - Competition for quality OB Management
- Overemphasis UPC - Innovation & change mgt People behave only Wider scope as do
- Narrow - only human aspect - Facilitating work life balance So narrow scope PODSCORB
- Can’t supplement mismgt - Promoting ethical behaviour Behavioural science Social physical scie.

Power Of MODELS OF ORGANISTION BEHAVIOUR
Conflict Group ORG Rational economic man-assumes Self Actuating man
Intergroup
Behaviour
Cognitive Framework
Sociology behaviour
OB is out of internal - Man primarily motivated by -Self Actualiz -ultimate goal
Org Tech feeling & needs of ppl. Economic incentives -Immature to mature by time
Org culture
Org Change No role of mgr & envt. - Org control eco. Incentive so -Self Motivated & controlled
Eg. Leaders are Born control & manipulate people -Mgr should use theory ‘Y’
Comparative Organisation Behaviorist framework - People are irrational & no Complex Man - Assumptions
values &
attitude OB is result of inter per conflict of interest with org -Complex & vary to situation
Anthropo sonal stimul & response Organisational man model -Capable of learning new
Org culture OB is inter disciplinary -Ind by himself is meaningless motives. - motives are diff. In
Org envt not just congnitive. Eg
As depicted in picture

5 behavioural science
BF skinner reinf model. Creative only when in group diff. Org/sub org within org
impact process of OB. Social cognitive FW -Lastly want belongingness -Ppl can respond many diff
Politics
Political Conflict Scope/level of analysis OB is result of whole -Goal of belongingness is strategies of mgt.
Science Coalition
Power
As depicted in picture social system & not just acheiveg with science Social Man model -Assume
Individual, group,Org of internal & inter prsnl -There is no conflict of same as howthrone studies
OB model - Behavioural science contri & Analysis level Society make behaviour interest btw ind & org So mgt behaves accordingly
