Help me correct my grammar mistakes
SUMMARY
In my opinion, organizational behavior is the behavior of the whole, not individual behavior. But organizational behavior is realized through individual behavior, which in turn affects individuals. Organizational behavior consists of organizational culture, organizational change and organizational development. I am very lucky to participate in the study of this course. We have spent more than a month learning a lot about organizational behavior, which has benefited me a lot. During the organization activities, I found many problems and promoted my correct understanding of the organization behavior through group discussion and summary of problems. The whole course arrangement was very interesting and we gained a new understanding of the organization through a lot of group activities. We use the group model to simulate the company model, and extend the generation and solution of group problems to the generation and solution of company problems. This class will help me a lot in my work and life in the future.
I would like to segment the topics learned in the module as each topic has its significance in one way or the other.
ORGANISATIONAL POWER AND POLITICS.
The people belonging to the high echelons in the organization try to influence the policies of the organization as they are the ones who have control over the resources and have a say in the decision making process. Power and politics go hand in hand as it is concentrated in the hands of few and it is useful for someone who has to climb the ladder to reach to its top. It can sometimes be behind-the curtains manipulation to achieve a desired result. Too much emphasis on power and politics can degrade the organization as there’s abuse of authority for personal greed and can also tarnish the reputation of the fellow colleagues and also of the organization. I learned from my team mates that blame game, gossips and shifting of responsibilites won’t work in carrying our tasks effectively. Cohesion of ideas and coming to a conclusion is of great importance in a team settings to complete the task.
LEADERSHIP
It is of great importance for organizations to have a leader who always takes responsibilities and leads from the front. According to me as i am aiming to become a top manager this is a vital attribute which should be instilled in me before i join my first job. I have the ambition of leading a team at my workplace. There were many activities where i could deliver my leadership skills which motivated my team mates and developed unity among all the group members. An firm is successful only when its employees are heard in the decision making process and a good leader always hears everyone out and then arrives at a decision.
ORGANISATION CULTURE
It is the social atmosphere engulfing the organization. It depends on the people working in the organization. A good organizational culture sets a positive vibe among people. Different organizations have different culture. Culture plays an important role in creating an image for the firm. It can also be changed according to the wishes of the top leadership. Strong culture is established when people are in line with the firm’s values and beliefs. It can help the firm to achieve it’s mission and objectives. Employees can feel motivated to work in the firm where there is strong culture. Good culture can also lead to productivity,growth and efficiency. There was positive atmosphere around my learning team as people in my learning team were positive and helped each other during crisis.
Organizations having strong culture generally have positive financial growth and lead to employee retention.
TEAMWORK
I observed that effective team works results in productivity and builds a rapport among team members. It helps to achieve the tasks faster and also help in tackling different projects efficiently. It also builds trust and promotes a wider sense of ownership. Organization can increase team roles by specifying goals in detail and establishing effective communications. Effective communication in a team setting leads to positive output. Being transparent helps in developing mutual respect and keeps everyone in the loop. Managing teams effectively also leads to constructive feedback and it is the teamwork which made every task easier for us.
CASE STUDY
|
Jorge |
technically competent work on a schedule work long hours at the company |
|
Mary |
outgoing, rich work experience and innovative |
|
Oki |
rational understanding of the market works hard accept different opinions |
Because the three managers have different personalities, the project cannot proceed. Everyone has their own advantages. Due to their good development, they are reluctant to explore new markets and shift their focus of work. In this case, if I were Jean, I would find out the benefits to their company in developing countries based on their respective production conditions. Only when people see the benefits will they abandon the original strategic plan. I will convince Oki first, because he is a person who is receptive to different opinions. Let him see the potential market to bring him huge benefits, with his leading role, together to persuade the other two company executives. In developing regions, the population base is large, the market demand is large, and the production cost is low, the labor force is connected. Most developed markets are already saturated, and big breakthroughs are hard to come by. Jorge is a man who likes to make plans and stick to them, so he's the hardest person to change his mind. He was my last persuasion target, and I used the influence of the other two to help him change his mind.

During the whole operation of the organization, it is necessary to make plans according to your own situation in advance. In our group activities, there are some problems. First, when we choose a project, we often only see the value of the project, but ignore an evaluation of our own value. At the beginning of the game, we had time to choose which game we wanted to make, and soon we decided on the project based on the amount of money we made and the number of people we had. However, in the process of the game, we found that although many projects were of high value, they failed due to our own insufficient ability. We spent a lot of time and effort on making the game worthwhile, and that decision dragged down the team. In my opinion, not all projects are suitable for every company, and there is specialization in the industry. We should first of all give ourselves a correct positioning in the future work, evaluate our own ability, and select the project under the corresponding conditions. This will not waste resources, thereby creating greater value. In a small organization, we should be familiar with everyone's skills and try to make the best use of each person's value. In this case, I was assigned a sudoku game, but English was not my first language, so I spent a lot of time and couldn't finish the game. Second, group meetings are important in every organization. Meetings are the soul of managers. Every meeting is the best way for managers to find problems and solve problems. n our group discussion, we need to determine the theme of each meeting et the group members present their own ideas, and then make decisions or vote on them by the leader. As a leader, you can't experience every position and find every problem. So you can only summarize the problem in the meeting and find a way to solve the problem. There are also many kinds of meetings, planned meetings, summary meetings, morning meetings, weekly meetings, annual meetings and so on. Meetings are an important way to make the whole organization more efficient. In the game, I found that in order to save time, our team was spared the process of meeting, but in fact, we lacked communication and did our own things without exerting the collective power to the maximum. People can't be perfect, but the collective can be perfect. Thirdly, each member of the group should have its own correct positioning, understand its own position in the group, and complete the tasks of the group according to its own ability. We were formed temporarily in this group activity, so we didn't have a good understanding of each other. But before the group activity, there is a brief self-introduction. During this period, each person should simply describe his/her own characteristics and identify himself/herself as a leader. Then the leader will assign the work according to each person's personality characteristics and preferences. There are fewer people in our group, so it is not very difficult for the leader. The purpose and function of managers are to improve work efficiency. In chapter 2 of {Wealth of Nations}, it is mentioned that the main reason why human beings can make progress is that we use tools to improve work efficiency. Management is also an intangible tool of production. Before the course began, we completed some investigations, such as CSI, MBTI and so on. We can according to the above data, the correct positioning for themselves. According to MBTI's survey structure, I am a straightforward but rational independent person who does not like to conform to rules. So I am suitable for some independent and creative work. Having a correct cognition of oneself before work can not only improve the work efficiency of the whole team, but also make oneself have a favorite working environment, which is conducive to one's mental health and relieve work pressure. In the future management work, especially when the size of the enterprise is relatively small, the number of employees is small, we as managers, we should know more about each person's personality and his ability to work, according to each person's ability to work out the corresponding work plan. This will make the whole organization's system clearer, improve the company's production efficiency and create a good working environment for the people.
Our last class impressed me a lot. Under the guidance of the professor, we played a very interesting game -- anonymous evaluation. Each of us has a piece of paper on our back, and your team members and friends can paste their comments on your back, but you can't find out who wrote them. First, let's talk about the benefits of mutual evaluation. First, evaluation can help us find our shortcomings and promote our growth. Everyone's vision has limitations, many times we can not find their own shortcomings, mutual evaluation can help you find the shortcomings in time, to correct. Second: mutual evaluation is conducive to the summary of the group's work, common communication, improve the quality of work. The third; Group evaluation can enhance the affection between team members and promote the coordination ability of the team. Anonymous evaluation can maintain the benign development of the team's feelings, improve efficiency and promote development without affecting the team's feelings. Such activities are necessary in our future work.
CONCLUTION
This class has brought me a lot of gains. In the future work and life, I know how to improve work efficiency through organization and management, reach the target through setting the right plan, and find out the problems through meetings. We can solve different problems in the same way. This class also gives me a concrete understanding of organizational behavior, which affects individual behavior through organizational behavior. So the purpose is to improve work efficiency, so that employees have a good working environment. Organizational culture refers to the image of individuals through organizations, but it is also the individual behavior that constitutes organizational culture. But when businesses are small, we need to use everyone a little to increase productivity. As the organization grows, we need to use management regulations, corporate systems, and corporate culture to manage employees to maximize their personal value. This may be the ultimate goal of studying organizational behavior.
