1)Please answer each question with paragraph so that I could organize them later on by
myself.
2)I want the essay mentioned some key words: Power, leadership, politics, build trust,
effective organizational communication strategy( such as Better decision making, Reduce org.
stress, Better performance, Improve Employee Satisfaction, Better brand, Healthier culture,
Avoid miscommunication and conflict)
3)Since the project is mainly about organizational behavior, here’s some not about OB that
might help.
Organizational behavior helps organizations define consistencies in human behavior and make
appropriate predictions of individuals in organizations such as:

a. Motivation
b. Leader’s Behavior and Power
c. Interpersonal Communication
d. Group Structures & Processes
e. Attitudes & Perceptions
f. Change Processes
g. Conflict Negotiation
h. Work Design

OB is a Field of Study
1) OB was built on contributions from:

1. Psychology – personality, emotions, stress (individual focused)
2. Social Psychology – group communication and behavior (group focused)
3. Sociology – development of structure & social formations (group & organization
   focused)
4. Anthropology – human behavior in society, environment, culture (organization focused)

Management – processes, jobs, people, resources (individuals & organizations)
OB as a Career

1. OB executives diagnose organizational problems, develop solutions,
   develop game plan to implement solutions, articulate the impact on

organizations from implemented solutions, and predict the
probability of success from each solution.

2. OB executives structure their diagnosis of organizations into these
   components in order to know their clients
   i. Individual – employee performance , motivation, learning
   ii. Dyad – managing your boss
   iii. Group/Team – team cohesion, norms, conflict
   iv. Organization – culture that inspires
   v. Industry – competition with other organizations in same
   industry
3. As an OB executive you are seen as a guru of human behavior &
   human emotions. You know what motivates people to be their best
   vi. So to sell your ideas you need to build a business case –
   show evidence or basis for your reasoning whether it’s from the
   organization, research study, market analysis
   vii. When you have your business case, you have evidence to
   make recommendations
   viii. The process of analyzing information thru interviews,
   observations, research of financial, customer, employee,
   organizational data helps you make proper recommendations
   and build a business case for change – this requires critical
   thinking
   ix. Critical thinking involves asking the right questions, in
   order to solve the pressing organizational problems
