MAIN BODY
Part 1:
Analysation of the organizational behaviour on the performance enhancements with in the work
place:
Organizational Behaviour is the factor that helps to understand, predict and control
overall human behaviour within the organization. The aspect of organizational behaviour focuses
on the individual, the group within the organization and the organization by pointing on their
interactional relationships with others (Stewart, Courtright, and Manz, 2019). Organizational
culture influences the workforce in the organization and gives the best result out there in the
form of acceptable behaviours and effective attitude towards the different types of jobs and tasks
assigned to all the individuals in the organization. Organizational culture works as the main
determinant in influencing the employees by increasing their effectiveness and efficiency in the
jobs assigned to them. The competitiveness of an organization is not shown by the technologies
adopted by the firm but it is also shown by the culture the organization follows in there. It helps

in improving the performance of the employees and motivates them to work with full
effectiveness and give out their best in the workplace.
In organization, employees are the main components that gives out the best for the
generation of the revenues and also maintaining the brand image. Also, the culture works as the
code of conduct that shows out much about the shared values in between the employees. The
main elements under which the organizational culture comes is individuals, groups and
organization structures (Mishra, Ghosh, and Sharma, 2021). Different characteristics influence
the employee's behaviour in the work place. There are several work place ethics in grouping also,
that get influenced by the organizational culture by impacting the employee’s behaviour and
motivating them. The various attributes that influence or impact the organizational culture and
employee's behaviour are as stated under:
Power distance: this is the first factor that impacts the organization by reflecting the inequality
in the organization. It shows out that how some employees have more power as compared to
those who don't have the power but have better status and respect in the organization. It reflects
the inequalities in the organization. However, not all organization managements have the issues
related to the inequalities that serves as the problem over there.
Individualism and collectivism: this is the second important factor of the culture. In this the
difference in between the organization interest and employee's self-interest is highlighted that it
matches on the same or not. In different cultures the interest of groups or organization is valued
as compared to the interest of the individual employ. In, work place with the individualist culture
employees are excepted to act according to the individual interest and in collective culture the
employees are excepted to work in the organizational interest (Li, and et.al., 2019).
Uncertainty avoidance: under this factor the employees need to follow that they do not know
what they will face tomorrow. The organization must be developed as to come up with the
solutions to any problem arises out of uncertainty. In uncertainty avoidance culture, employees
want rules and regulations, conservation legal orders, and they don't like the adventure and
innovation. The focus is completely on the risk management, employees prefer stable jobs and
secured life. In the less uncertainty avoidance culture the competition and conflicts are
acceptable in the work place.
Masculinity and femininity: this factor shows how the organization works in predominant ways
of male or female in terms of culture values, gender roles and power relations. The firm operates
