THE SITUATION
This is the storyline foundation for your ROB Project.
Recall a specific problematic situation in your workplace.
Try to think of a situation that was ongoing, created problems for people, was not resolved, and has multiple people at various levels of employment involved.
In short, focus on a situation that had more than one “villain” and a somewhat complicated setting.
This will be the basis for your research.
This is your story to investigate and your mystery to solve.
And work situations are never as simple as you think, never the “fault” of just one person or policy, and always more challenging to fix than anyone imagines.
This is why we study Organizational Behavior.
Answer These Questions (SET A – The Organization)
Describe the workplace setting.
What type of company/organization is it?
Where is it located?
How many employees are in your location?
Are you in management?
If so, what is your title and how many people do you supervise?
If you are not in management, how many employees in your work area report to a manager?
What is your manager’s title?
Describe a typical day at work.
Describe an atypical day at work (a “weird” day).
Answer these questions (Set B – You & Your Workplace)
What is your job title?
Describe how you are compensated.
Describe the incentive payment system if any, in your job.
Describe what you like about your work.
Describe what you like about your workplace.

In this Section you will focus on one Body of OB Theory to use as a lens into this situation.
Each Chapter in the Book focuses on a Body of OB Theory (Motivation, Leadership, etc).
You must now choose one Body of OB Theory (think Chapter topic) and then you must refine that choice by researching sub-theories related to it. There are hundreds of sub-theories within a Body of Theory.
You are now beginning the Research phase and you are looking for articles, reports, news items, and academic papers to find a reasonable explanation for the WHY behind your situation at work.
There are always MANY explanations! Your task is to find one that logically and reasonably explains the reason for the situation, the reason for inaction, the reason for wrong action, the reason for the situation not to be resolved.
ANSWER THESE QUESTIONS / FOLLOW THESE INSTRUCTIONS
What Body of OB Theory do you choose to investigate this situation? Please explain your reasoning.
Give one example in the story of how your theory applies.
