INTRODUCTION
Organization behaviour is going to make the organization have higher profitability and
productivity in the organization which is a very important factor for the company. There is going
to be higher satisfaction and innovation which is going to be encouraged in an organization
where there is good organizational behaviour which is being followed. Screw fix belongs from
the home improvement, kitchen & bathroom industry and the founder of the company is Jon
Goddard-Watts. The company is having revenue of 1,671 million as of 2019 and there are more
than 8,804 employees working in the company which is increasing on a high rate. The report is
going to discuss the theories and practices in the organization to maintain the balance of
behaviour of the workforce which is going to help the company be able to operate effectively in
the market which is a very important factor for the organization to have to gain competitive
advantage.
MAIN BODY
Organization theory analyse behaviour and practice of an organization
Businesses in the market must make sure that the satisfaction level and job performance
of the workforce is present in the organisation so that there are more achievements which the
company can have. To make the working environment healthier and safer for the workforce there
has to be a good maintenance of organisational behaviour which would be present to make sure
that all the employees are comfortable in the organisation. There are a lot of theories which can
be used by Screwfix in order to gain competitive advantage in the market. That report further is
going to discuss the two theories which are given by Handy’s and Schein (Prothero, 2017). Both
the theories discuss the organisational behaviour pattern which is present and with help the
organisation is able to analyse and make the right decisions. There has to be a systematic manner
to be able to achieve the targets and goals which the organisation has in order to make the
company gain a competitive advantage as well as higher profit margins. The competition in the
market is increasing which needs to be maintained so that the company will be able to operate
effectively in the market which is a very important factor. Customers shift from one organization
to another very quickly therefore it is very important that Screwfix is having a strong workforce

in the company in order to be able to match the standards and demands of the customers which is
rising (Gupta, Boland and Aron, 2017).
Schein Theory
Schein’s theory has divided this theory into three levels So that there is a better
understanding for the organisation to be able to plan their further decisions accordingly. This
theory is a very simple method which the organisation can understand and be able to make sure
that all the individuals collectively are having a growth in their performance. It is very important
that all the employees are feeling comfortable and accepted in the organisation. There are
different beliefs and values which all the employees have which needs to be understood and
maintained by the organisation in order to make sure that the company is having a higher
competitive advantage (Edgar Schein’s Model of Organizational Culture, 2020). The further
report would be discussing the three levels which the author has given in his theory. This theory
is going to help the company be able to have higher operations and productivity to be able to
have higher profit margins since the company will be able to work in one direction which is a
very essential factor for the organization to have in the market.
 Artifacts
The language which is being used in the organisation is going to give away the culture which
the company is following which has to match the employees. There have to be good
communication which needs to be present and that can only take place when there is a common
language which is being observed in the company to make sure that all the employees are
following that making the company has a higher functioning. The technology is also a part of the
culture and would shape the values and morals of the employees. Right material and knowledge
has to be used in the organisation to make sure that there are higher operations which are being
taken in the organisation (Pradhan, Jena and Panigrahy, 2020). There are a lot of mistakes which
can take place in Screwfix company but they need to be solved on time so that there is going to
be a maintained working environment which would be present. Breaching of any rules and
regulations of the organisation would impact the profitability of the company therefore there
have to be right actions taken and making sure that all the employees are following the
regulations of the organisation. Artifacts are visible which does not mean that they are going to
