INTRODUCTION
Organisational behaviour can be defined as study of human activity and knowledge
which helps to increase the business activities effectively. Corporation is made by collection of
people where they works collectively and give contribution to enhance the productivity. People
who are working at workplace needs motivation and inspiration which helps to improve the
effectiveness (Argyle, 2013). In other words, behaviour means to know about people how they
act within company for the purpose of attaining business goals. To understand in a good way
about organisational behaviour Ford corporation has been selected that is American
multinational auto maker company who has headquarter in Dearborn and Michigan. The
management and leaders are effective in this organisation who understand the problems and
supports employees to work properly. This report consider culture, politics, power which
influences behaviour of others, motivational technique which can motivate individual and team
in order to achieve goal, understanding about cooperating with others and concepts and
philosophies of organisation behaviour which help to solve the critical situations.
Task 1
P1 Organisation culture, politics and power influence individual and team behaviour
The behaviour of company is consider as subset of various human behaviour which is
associated with manager and leader's practices, helps to increase the organisational productivity
and profitability. This is important that employees feel good and comfortable so they can work
effectively and maintain the good performance (Armstrong, 2018). It can be defined as group- of
people who are working collectively by understanding goals and make efforts to achieve them.
In context to Ford organisation,, culture, power and politics influences individual and team
behaviour are defined as:
Organisation culture:
The culture of organisation can be said as underlying beliefs, values and ways of
interaction which contribute in unique social and psychological environment of a company. In
context to Ford organisation, managers are focusing to maintain the good culture in which they
understand the goal and delegate the work among people which influences performance and
behaviour of individual in positive manner. To understand this Handy's culture theory is used by
management which is defined as:

Role culture – This is job oriented culture which can be found in bureaucratic
corporation in order to understand the role and responsibilities effectively. By adopting this
culture, management of Ford organisation delegate the roles and responsibility to employees
which helps to perform well (Barr and Prillwitz, 2014). This influence team and individual such
as individual get job security and team get the support to work in aligned manner in same
department which helps to work according to assigned role.
Task culture – This culture is result oriented where management of organisation gives
task to people who are working at workplace and expects to complete them effectively. In this
culture management of Ford corporation set goals and give task to work in certain period. This
affects the individual and team as individual feel free and they provide customer satisfaction by
completing the task and team become good towards work and coordinated that aid in completion
of task (Handy's culture theory, 2019).
Power culture – Such culture states ability and capacity of people who are working in
business organisation and helps to attain the business goals. Herein, decision power is having to
those people who has influencing power which can attracts employees. For instance,
management of Ford are working under power culture because they have power to think good
and make right decision which helps to complete the goals. This affects team as all members get
ready to work in dynamic situation and work effectively which helps to complete the task.
Moreover, individual need to follow the instruction of their superior who has authority and
power which may impacts negatively.
Person culture – This culture mainly related with people who are highly connected with
themselves instead of company. Herein, they give importance to themselves and not participate
in business activities which affects the administration (Bellisle and Blundell, 2013). For example
in Ford organisation, employees are following this culture which impacts on individual and team
such as there is less interaction between people which limits to complete the task and employees
do not work efficaciously and team become more productive by working collectively.
Ford is applying role culture where management assign the role and responsibilities by
deciding goals and work accordingly. This affects individual such as they work properly by
understanding their roles and give contribution to complete the task. Team also affected as
collection of people work with togetherness where management supports leaders and team to
work in good manner in order to achieve business goals.
