CHAPTER 1

    Individual Behaviour in an Organization

Human Behavior has been believed
to be
the outcome of or response to certain
external and internal forces called
stimuli.
Two views of how Human Behaviour
occurs are discussed:
 a) The Traditional View
 b) The Input-Output System
CHAPTER 1

      Individual Behaviour in an Organization

a) The traditional View- (SOB Model)
   Behaviour is the Response to a Stimulus.
   i) Situation comprising of stimulus and
    environment (what pervades inside and
    outside of the individual)
   ii) Organization occurs through
    physiological and cognitive means.
   iii) Behaviour emerges as patterns of
    action as an outcome.
CHAPTER 1

      Individual Behaviour in an Organization

b) The Input-Output system
  Behaviourial scientist B J Kolasa
  viewed Behaviour from a “system” point
  of view which states that Output is the
  outcome of Input on which some action
  has taken place.
  Input + Processing-- Output
  Stimulus+ Internal/External
              processing-- Response

CHAPTER 1

       Individual Behaviour in an Organization
Foundations of Individual Behavior

    An understanding of individual behavior begins
    with a review of major psychological
    contributions to OB.
  These contributions are subdivided into four
    concepts:
a) Values
b) Attitudes
c) Perception
d) Learning
 We are covering Values in this Chapter
CHAPTER 1

       Individual Behaviour in an Organization

a) Values –
Values represent basic convictions that “a specific
  mode of conduct or end-state of existence is
  personally or socially preferable to an opposite or
  converse mode of conduct or end-state of
  existence”
Values highlight an individual’s idea as to what is
  right, good or desirable.
Values system is the priority list of Values, in
  descending order, which the individual stands for.
  E.g. freedom, pleasure, self respect, honesty,
  obedience, equality, etc.
CHAPTER 1

     Individual Behaviour in an Organization

Types of Values --
 Two approaches to developing Value
 typologies are covered as follows:-
 a) Rokeach Value Survey (RVS)
 developed by Milton Rokeach
 b) Contemporary Work Cohorts
 developed by Stephen Robbins
CHAPTER 1

     Individual Behaviour in an Organization

a) Rockeach Value Survey
   There are two sets of Values, each
   containing 18 items.
   The two sets are:
    i) Terminal Values
    ii) Instrumental Values
CHAPTER 1

     Individual Behaviour in an Organization

i) Terminal Values:
 These are desirable end-states of
  existence and comprise of Goals that a
  person would like to achieve in his
  lifetime.
ii) Instrumental Values:
 These are the modes of behaviors or
  means of achieving the Terminal Values.
  ( Refer to Exhibit 1-2 from course material
  for examples)
CHAPTER 1

     Individual Behaviour in an Organization

b) Contemporary Work Cohorts
  Stephen Robbins classified Work
 Values into four groups based on the
 era – period of time in history- when
 they entered into work.
  Each group represents a Cohort or a
 Generation
CHAPTER 1

     Individual Behaviour in an Organization

 The four groups are:
1) Veterans - 1950s to early 60s
2) Boomers – 1965 to 1985
3) Xers – 1985 to 2000
4) Nexters – 2000 to present

 (Refer to Exhibit 1-3 of course
  material for more details)
CHAPTER 1

    Individual Behaviour in an Organization

Values, Loyalty & Ethical Behavior
 Loyalty is dependent upon the Values
 the employees cherish.
 Level of Loyalty is a function of
 Ethical Behavior
CHAPTER 1

       Individual Behaviour in an Organization

 Values across Cultures
 Values across different Cultures are different and
   are impacted by five factors:
1) Power Distance
2) Individualism Vs Collectivism
3) Quantity of life Vs Quality of life
4) Uncertainty Avoidance
5) Long-term Vs Short-term orientation

( Refer to Exhibit 1-4 of course material for more
   details)
CHAPTER 1

  effectiveness in organizations.
