INTRODUCTIONOrganisational behaviour is the study in which people from different groups in theorganisation interact inside and outside with each other to develop business activities moreeffectively. It is important for the organisation and employees to set organisation goals andobjectives by human interaction. It helps in understanding the importance of culture, politics andpower on the behaviour of the individual inside different departments of an organisation. Thestated report is based on BBC (British Broadcasting Corporation),that studies the relevantchanges due to the child abuse cases against the news presenters. It was found over the years thatthere has been failure in maintaining proper culture, communication and management system ofBBC. The culture issue was the main barrier that it was facing and influencing the effectiveperformance of BBC. Therefore, it was found that the organisational behaviour impacts on thebrand image and popularity of BBC and also the profitability of the firm.TASK 1 Identify and discuss earlier organisational culture within BBC using Handy's cultural typologyCharles Handy was one that understood that to have a healthy work culture it is importantto provide employees with good workplace to complete their given task. He has developed fourculture models that relate to Greek gods. They were classified as power culture, role culture, taskculture and person or support culture (Coccia, 2014).POWER CULTURE- In this culture the power remained within the hands of few peopleand they had the authority to take decisions. They were enjoying the special privilege atthe workplace, they were given importance and were the major decision makers. Theydelegated the decisions to other employees and in this type of culture the subordinates donot have any other options rather than following the orders. They were not allowed togive ideas and their views and had to follow their managers orders (Kitchin, 2017).TASK CULTURE- In this culture organisations are that forms the team to achieve theirtargets to resolve critical issues always follows task culture. In these organisationsindividuals with same interest and special skills come together to make a team. There aremostly four to five members in every team, and in such teams every member has tocontribute to achieve the task in the best advanced style. 1
PERSON CULTURE- In these culture employees feels that they have more importancethan the organisation and do their works as per their satisfaction. In this type of cultureindividuals are moreover concerned about themselves than the company, due to this theorganisation takes a back-seat and suffers mostly. Employees comes to attain their basicneeds and do not worry about organisation and its culture (Pereira, Pereira and Froese,2017). ROLE CULTURE- In this type of culture employees are given duties and their rolesaccording to their qualification, skills and abilities to bring the best out of it. In thesetechniques employees willingly provide what they can do best for the organisation. Everyemployee works for the growth of the organisational benefit and take self-responsibilityfor the work assigned to him. Analysis, culture power and politics has affected the behaviour within BBC in present and pastThe work culture of BBC is official in terms of business and the decision-making powerof the organisation is within the management and no employees is concerned in this process.This was also same in past and in the present as well, they were allowed to do business in thereturn of money and no requirement of employees to think about companies’ behaviour (Russo,Tomei and Santos, 2013). Culture- The objectives and goals of the company become more effective and the cultureof BBC started giving importance to the employee’s beliefs, values and not only thinkingabout the targets. In BBC, the work culture that is in trend is that employees concentrateson their self-goals and leaving behind the organisation goals and objectives.Power- The organisational behaviour is affected because the power remains with themanagement itself. The employees then are only focused on achieving their own targetsand not concerned about company’s targets. The employees also not value about thecompany and so did the company also did not bother about their employee’s values andbeliefs and was focused on targets and goals. Politics- The politics taking place inside the company has and will always make animpact on the performance of the employees and the organisation as a whole. They adoptthe power culture in BBC and there is a requirement of using role culture in theorganisation so that every employee is defined with their role and responsibility. The2
