1:Implications of organisational power, politics and culture on behaviour of others.
Culture in the organisation defines the proper or correct way to behave within the
organisation. It is basically a collection values and practices that inform the actions of overall
workforce. Let's discuss more in detail about the organisational culture and its impact:
Power
A power is basically a strong culture in Primark company. Power is held by just a few
individuals whose impact spreads in overall organisation. Power has some rules and regulation.
For example, employees are usually judged by their achievements and not about how they act
(Buchanan, Badham, 2020).
Role
Primark with a role culture is based on few rules. Roles is a culture in which every other
employees is assigned roles and responsibilities as per their qualifications or specialisations.
Every other individual at Primark is responsible for something and has to take the ownership of
the work.
Task
1

At Primark, teams are formed in order to achieve the targets and solve critical issues. The
company formed a team in which the common interest and preferences come together to form a
team. Primark generally involve four to five member in a team (Hamilton,and Taylor, 2017).
Person
In this type of culture, a person is more concerned about their own self rather than an
organisation in which they are working. At Primark, employees just come to earn money and
does not get attached to the office and its surroundings. Employees never decide in favour of the
company.
Culture, power, role, task and person has positive impact on team performance as if
proper rules and regulations are being made by managers then all employees will work properly.
When work is given in teams then it helps in improving culture of company because all workers
will interact with each other and there will be no confusion or misunderstanding. If culture of
company is good then work will be completed on time and improve team performance. Powers
are given to employees then they will work efficiently. Some rights should be given to workers
because it helps in motivating members and they will work efficiently. Task is given by
managers in groups so that employees can work together and it will reduce conflicts and
confusion among workers. It will improve overall performance of company and better products
can be made. This will create good relationship between members and working in a team
increases efficiency.
Some negative impact of culture, power, role, task and person is that if employees did not
culture of company, then they will not work efficiently and it will lead to increase absenteeism.
After sometime, members want that they should get some powers and rights like, to take
decisions, involve in meeting, suggestions should be taken etc. This will help in increasing their
confidence but if they are not involved in meetings of company or not having right to take
decision then it will lead to negative impact on employees and hence this will affect team
performance. Culture, power, role, task and person have negative impact on team performance as
well as on individual performance. When teams are made, employees are from different culture
and background so it is difficult for them to adjust with each other. This will affect performance
of all employees and goals will not be achieved. If powers are not given then also it lead to bad
impact on employees and increases absenteeism among workers.
