INTRODUCTIONOrganisation behaviour is the study of people and group in the venture which states thathow they react, perceive, motivates, influences different situations in the venture. In simplewords it can be said that it is the study which tell that how people interact and have interpersonalcommunication in group and firm. This study helps the venture to create their workers moreeffective and efficient so that they can work in appropriate way in order to cater the needs andwants of the customers. The ultimate goal of the organisation is to serve optimal level ofsatisfaction to customers which can be achieved with the help of employee efficiency. Thus,company need to motivate employees so that they can do quality work in order to achieve thegoal of workers. There are several aspects that are lined with the organisation behaviour such asculture, policies, power and how they can influence individual behaviour in the organisationwhen they are working individually and in the group. The report includes the differentmotivation theories such as Maslow's need hierarchy theory, process theory etc. by whichventure can motivates their employees in order to work in effective and efficient manner. Otherthan that it also includes different leadership approaches such as Normative, Formative etc. bywhich leader can guide and manage their followers.LO1: How culture, politics and power can influence the behaviour of individual in the venture.Culture, power and politics are key factors which have great impact over the perception,behaviour, action etc. Employees need to follow culture, politics and power so that they can becomfortable in the venture and work in effective way. Culture, politics and power and theirinfluence over the behaviour of the employees are as follows:Culture: Organisation culture is the shared values, assumption, beliefs of the venture whichhelps the employees to behave in the particular way in the business premises. Values have thestrong impact over the behaviour of the workers such as how they act, dress, behave andcommunicate in the venture. Every venture have their own culture which serve boundaries andguidelines to the individual in order to behave in the professional way in the premises of theorganisation (Shin, and Zhou, 2017). There are several factors that all together make organisationculture that are power, role, task, individual, group etc. innovation is the key factor whichdesigns the organisation culture. The organisation which have high value for the innovation will
always motivate their employees to take risk related to the innovation and perform theiractivities. The firm which do not prefer innovation will not take large risk for the innovation andtrain their employees in such way. Thus, it can be said that culture influence the behaviour of theindividual and how they work (Will, 2016). Power: It is the authority given to the individual to have specific responsibilities and authority.Other than that power is also the factor by which the person who have power can influenceothers in the organisation. Power can be taken in both way, negative and positive. When theindividual take power in positive way then he takes their employees in right direction andmotivates them to work in more efficient way. When the power is taken in negative way then theindividual will always find his or her benefits. He or she will always force the employees towork, rather he or she will never try to build good relation with the employee. Power has greatimpact over the behaviour of the employees. If the leader will try to build relationship then theemployees will behave in good manner and if the leader will force employees to do work themthey will have negative thoughts for the venture and in this way they will behave in negativemanner. There are different types of power such as coercive, reward, legitimate. Expert, referentetc. In coercive power, people try to fulfil their self desires, they do the different activities bywhich they gain more. When the person is given reward power, then he or she has right to servedifferent opportunities and reward to the people (Saifi, and Shahzad, 2017). Legitimate power isthe official position in the venture, it is being given by the top level management of the venture.Thus, it can be said that when the person have power in their hand, they do follow theirresponsibilities and authority.Politics: Organizational politics refers to a variety of activities associated with the use ofinfluence tactics to improve personal or organizational interests. Every individual try to fulfiltheir personal goal and never try to achieve organisational goal. This have great impact over theorganisation and people who are working there. A negative thought have been created in themind of people that each and every person is selfish in the venture (Zaleznik, 2017). This willcreate negative environment in the organisation. In order to resolve the problem of politics in theventure, firm need to appoints leader and divides employees in different teams and every teamwill be allotted a leader. With the help of leader, organisation motivated the employee to caterthe needs and wants of venture. If gaol of the firm can be accomplish them their personalobjectives will automatically fulfil (Hagge, and Houten, 2016).
