PART 1
Critically analyse organizational culture, power and politics in Ryanair influenced individual or
team behaviour.
Organizational power, politics and culture is influenced individual employee and group
behaviour within the organization. This influences the individual and team behaviours into
Ryanair. For understanding in better manner how organizational power, politics and culture
impact to performance of team behaviour, here is applied Handy’s culture model:
Handy culture model:
Handy model of culture is lead complete authority which is related to organizational
culture which is defined with four different kinds of culture power, role, task and person culture.
 Power culture: power culture is supposed with individuals whose influences spread
throughout the organization. There are very few rules and regulations in a power culture.
For example: management of Ryanair have power to change rules and regulations within
the organization as per requirement. In that, employees are highly affected because that
3

rules are followed by them (Handy culture model, 2017). On the other side, team
behaviour is also affected because of working environment is changed.
 Role culture: role culture is based on rules and regulations of company. For example: am
leader have role to allocate work to followers and guide for completing work by using
their role. This can affect to behaviour of individual of Ryanair because they are not able
to use their own working style. On the other side, whole team is affected with this
because they take time to understand working.
 Task culture: Task culture is form in the situation when team in an organization are
formed to address problems and progress. For example: senior assign work task to each
and every employee in Ryanair when re-structuring organization (Shanker and et.al.,
2017). That cam affect to individual and team because they are not mix well as per
restructure of work. As per that both are not feel comfortable with the working
environment.
 Person culture: Person culture refers with individual see them as unique to the
organization. for example: in the context of Ryanair, employees are not understand their
work as per restructure than it is affect to business because through that they are not able
to perform in well manner. This creates negative impact on company growth because that
is directly affected to productivity of company. For that, management need to organize
training program for understanding their working role within the organization.
Organizational culture is affect to individual and team behaviour of employees. As per
that power also affect to team behaviour and individual for that here is select French and Raven
power type’s model:
Think leader about the discipline or rewards people for getting thing into proper and
effective manner. This considers with five factors like legitimate, expert, reward, referent and
coercive.
 Legitimate power comes from the formal right of employees, organizational culture
providing the basic legitimate power. This can affect to team behaviour and performance
due to divide organizational structure (French and raven form of power, 2017). As per
that employee of Ryanair want direction of work than they not allowed to communicate
into other department. This can affect to performance.
