For this required leadership theories will be analyzed. Further,significance of working in tem will be explained in this undertaking. Moreover, tactics ofimproving performance of teams will be discussed. The present report is based on the culture of BBC. The selected firm British BroadcastingCorporation belongs to mass media sector. The entity was established 95 years ago and inpresent date it is serving the people worldwide. Thus, in order to manage such a large company,the power, role, culture, etc. should be effective. However, earlier from the report of Smith it hasbeen observed that the organizational behavior of the firm is affected due to some reasons. In thisassignment, these issues will be identified.TASK 1P1 (a) Using Handy’s cultural typology , identify and discuss the earlier culture of BBC.As per Handy’s cultural typology, there are basically four types or cultures existing inantithetic organization. These are role, power, task and person. In role culture, organizations areabided with strict rules and regulations. All business operations are bases on certain roles andresponsibilities. In context to task culture, teams are formed in companies to address specificprojects. In case of the person culture, all the employees are regarded as significant assets(Tuckman Forming Stormin Norming Performin model. 2017). Whereas in case of power culture,the authority of influencing the overall organization is held by only few individuals. In context to the selected company it has been observed from the reports that earlier theentity had power culture.

employers is the actual decision of the firm. There exist some benefits of implementing powerculture in an organization. However, it should be recognized that for the selected fir, this turnedtoxic. It brought various adverse effects on the effectiveness of the working environment (Path-Goal Theory of Leadership. 2017). The employers had started influencing employees negatively.Further, negative impacts of this culture were observed in the wages of employees too.

This has resulted in lower employeemotivation which is the major reason behind the work ineffectiveness that caused at that period.Also, earlier he cultures of BBC was central to the managers and high level authorities. Therewere lack of effective policies. These weaknesses have highly impacted on the workeffectiveness. The working environment was further not effective as the communication betweenemployee employer was ineffective.P1 (b) Affect of culture, power, behavior in BBCEarlier, the culture of the selected company was not effective. It has been observed thatthe lower level employees were highly affected due to this organizational environment. Themajor reason behind this type of business culture is the ineffective strategies and influence ofhigh level employers (What are the barriers of implementing performance managements?.2017). In addition to this it has been found that earlier in 1950s the legislation of the country wasnot much effective in context to the employment. Besides this, the culture initially was centeredon the high level authority only. This disengagement of employee in decision-makings and otherthings used to de-motivate employees. This impact of this reduced level of motivation is in turnaffected the work quality and performance. There are numerous affects caused due to the culture,power and behavior.It has been observed form the reports that most of the women working in1950s have faced some form of sexual harassment (Pinder, 2014). From this information, itshould be considered that the inappropriate compliance with the laws plays a major role indamaging the working culture. In addition to this, it has been observed that various complaintswere filed against the high level authorities by the lower level employees. This reflects thenegative impacts of the culture existing in that time. Further, the culture of the entity before washighly male oriented. Females had received no or less importance in 1950-1960. Besides thissignificance and respect, it has been noted that there were also large variations in the wages ofmales and females.
