Organisational Behaviour
Introduction
Case Background
I have been working as a teacher in the ABC Groups of Institutes since the past 10 years.
Because of my long association with the company, I have also been appointed as the
coordinator for cultural fests that take place twice every year in the college campus. ABC
Groups of Institutes is a prestigious college that offers professional courses in diverse fields
and has a student strength of around 35,000. The last festival in the college was a cultural fest
that took place on 26th January, 2019 to 29th January, 2019. The fest was attended by 300,000
students and almost 30,000 teachers from different colleges and high schools.
I had a great time while acting as the coordinator of the cultural fest, where I was responsible

festival successful. The operational areas where the team had to work were finances,
advertisement, sponsorships, security, registrations, scheduling of events, etc. The success of
the festival could be attributed to the excellent team work demonstrated by the teachers as

the members of a team to work together and create synergies, which they cannot create while
working alone or as individuals (O'Neill & Salas, 2018). As discussed above, I had an
extremely important opportunity to coordinate a cultural festival that had a budget of
60,000$. The festival was a huge success and the key components that made our team more
effective are discussed below:
Communication
Communication in a team work is one of the most important elements that makes it effective
and efficient in achieving its goals and objectives. We knew it from the very beginning that to
organise such a large festival successfully, we had to use the most effective channels of
communication and ensure that relevant information reached the concerned people at the
