Managerial Skillsy Conceptual Skills:
The ability to analyze and diagnose a situation and distinguish between cause and effect. y Human Skills: The ability to understand, work with, lead, and control the behavior of other people and groups. y Technical Skills: Job-specific knowledge and techniques.
Luthans Study of Managerial Activitiesy Four types of managerial activity:
y Traditional Management y Decision-making, planning, and controlling. y Communication y Exchanging routine information and processing paperwork y Human Resource Management y Motivating, disciplining, managing conflict, staffing and training. y Networking y Socializing, politicking, and interacting with others.
y Managers who promoted faster (were successful) did
different things than did effective managers (those who did their jobs well)

Organizational BehaviorA field of study that investigates the impact that individuals, groups, and structure have on behavior within
organizations, for the purpose of applying such knowledge toward improving an organization s effectiveness. Gregory Moorhead :2007
Organizational Behaviory The field of OB deals with human behavior in
organizationsy OB is the multidisciplinary field that seeks
knowledge of behavior in organizational settings by systematically studying individual, groups, and organizational processes. Jerald Greenberg:2008
Organizational Behaviory This knowledge is used both by scientists
interested in understanding human behaviour & by practitioners interested in enhancing organisational effectiveness & individuals well being. Robert A .Baron:2008
Organizational BehaviorOrganisation Behaviour is concerned with the study of what people do in an organisation and how that behaviour affects the
performance of the organisation.Robbins: 1998,9
Organizational BehaviorOB highlights four central characteristics of the field.y It is firmly grounded in the scientific method. y It studies individuals, groups & organisations. y It is interdisciplinary in nature. y It is used as the basis for enhancing organisational
effectiveness & individual well-being.
Organizational BehaviorThe study of Organisational Behaviour involves:y consideration of the interaction among the formal structure
(organisational context in which the process of management takes place)y the technology employed and the methods of carrying out work y the behaviour of people y the process of management y the external environment
Organizational BehaviorInterrelated dimensions influencing behaviour:y The Individual - working environment should satisfy individual
needs as well as attainment of organisational goals.y The Group - formal and informal. Understanding of groups
complements a knowledge of individual behaviour.y The Organisation - impact of organisation structure and design,
and patterns of management, on behaviour.y The Environment - technological and scientific development,
economic activity, governmental actions.
Intuition and Systematic Studyy Intuitiony Gut feelings y Individual observation y Common sense
y Systematic Studyy Looks at relationships y Scientific evidence y Predicts behaviors
y The two are complementary means of predicting behavior.
An Outgrowth of Systematic StudyEvidence-Based Management (EBM)y Basing managerial decisions on the best available scientific evidence. y Must think like scientists:y y y
Pose a managerial question Search for best available evidence Apply relevant information to case
Intuition and Systematic StudyThe trick is to know when to go with your gut. Jack Welch y Intuition is often based on inaccurate information y Faddism is prevalent in management y Systematic study can be time-consumingUse evidence as much as possible to inform your intuition and experience. That is the promise of OB. Managers Should Use All Approaches

Workforce DiversityWorkforce diversity means that organisations are becoming a more heterogeneous mix of people in terms of gender , age , race , physical ability etc . A diversity workforce e.g. may include , Women Color of people The physically disabled Senior citizens etc.
Workforce Diversity in IndiaIndian organisations have accommodate a very diverse social group of employees based on socioeconomic, cultural and linguistic composition. Scheduled castes & Scheduled tribes Other Backward castes Bonafide members of the state Ex-defense & paramilitary personnel Disabled persons Gender issues
DiversityDiversity enhances creativity and innovation (Adler, 1997;Jackson et al., 1992), and produces competitive advantages(Coleman, 2002; Jackson et al., 1992). Diverse teams make it possible to enhance flexibility (Fleury, 1999) and Rapid response and adaptation to change (Adler, 1997; Jackson et al., 1992.

Primary and Secondary Dimensions of Diversity
Impact of Diversityy Organizational culture y Calls for diverse approaches to managing people
including training the staff in desired skillsy For example, people with adequate programming skills
are not available in US & UK markets (HR Head, Infosys, Economic Times, 2009)
Prominent world level companiesy McDonaldy Founded in 1967 in Canada y Operating income 50% earned from outside US
operations (2005)y Every three hrs. a new McDonald opens somewhere

Prominent world level companiesy Coca-Colay Operates in more than 200 countries y 80% of its workforce are non- US citizens y Has 500 trained personnel to go anywhere in the
world to offer advice and expertise concerning operational and customer service problemsy 70% of its operating income comes from operations
out side of US
Prominent world level companiesNokia y the cell phone giant from Finland employs over 1000 foreign workers in Finland & over 60% of its 53000 employees are non-fins Philips y an electronic giant employs 83% of its workforce outside of its headquarters in the Netherlands IBM y employ almost 80000 people in India (Eco.

Benefits from Managing DiversityXerox y plants using diverse work teams are now 30 per cent more productive than conventional plants. Procter & Gamble y achieves 30-40 per cent higher productivity at its 18 diverse team-based plants than at its non-diverse plants. Motorola y beat its competition by producing the worlds most efficient and high-quality cellular phones which are produced almost exclusively by diverse work teams. Research has shown that organizations that proactively recruit, develop, and leverage multinational leaders are in better positions in the global marketplace.
Benefits from Managing Diversity
GE Power Systems achieved 13 per cent productivity gains from cross-functional and multicultural teams versus homogeneous teams.
Numerous empirical studies of work teams demonstrate that when tasks are complex and not clearly defined, heterogeneous teams outperform homogeneous teams. Super teams, those that were diverse in numerous respects and selected because of their differences, outperformed those that were homogeneous.
Benefits from Managing Diversityy
Unlike other MNCs, diversity for us is a business imperative and not an issue of legal compliance. We want HLLs management to be representative of our diverse customer base so that they understand the needs of the customer better. If a manager understands the brand she is handling, the learning curve is that much shorter. For instance, in marketing, if the target audience is women, it is an advantage if a woman is incharge of the brand. Says Prem Kawath, HR Manager, HLL.4
Leaders in Diversityy Pepsi s CEO & direct

A Brief History of OB Classical approach to management (scientific
management and administrative management) Hawthorne studies (workers respond to attention) Human relations movement (treat workers well to
boost productivity) contd.
A Brief History of OBContd. The contingency approach (examine individual
and situational differences before taking action) Positive organizational behavior (focus on
measurable strengths of workers to improve performance)
The classical approachy The focus of scientific management was the
application of scientific methods to increase individual worker s productivity.y
According to the principles of scientific management, there is a division of work between managers and workers.
The classical approachTAYLOR S PRINCIPLES y the development of a true science for each person s work y the scientific selection, training and development of the workers y co-operation with the workers to ensure work is carried out in the prescribed way y the division of work and responsibility between management and the workers.
The classical approachy Administrative management was concerned
primarily with how organizations should be managed and structured.y
The core of management knowledge lies within the classical school, including the framework of planning, organizing, and controlling.
The classical approachHenry Fayol classified all the business activities into six functions: y Technical activities y Commercial activities y Financial activities y Security activities y Accounting activities y Managerial activities
The Hawthorne Studiesy During the 1920s, attention began to focus on social factors at
work, groups, leadership, the informal organisation and behaviour of people.y Behavioural and informal are alternative headings sometimes
given to this approach.y Turning point came with the famous Hawthorne experiments at
the Western Electric Company in America (1924-32)y One of the researchers (leader) was ELTON MAYO (1880-1949)
The Hawthorne StudiesFour Main Phases to the Hawthorne Experimentsy The Illumination Experiments - level of production
was influenced by factors other than changes in physical conditions of work.y The Relay Assembly Test Room - attention and
interest by management reason for higher productivity.
The Hawthorne Studiesy The Interviewing Programme -20,000 interviews. Gave
impetus to present-day personnel management and use of counselling interviews. Highlighted the need for management to listen to workers.y The Bank Wiring Observation Room - Piecework
Incentive Scheme. Group pressures stronger than financial incentives offered by management
The Hawthorne Studiesy
A major conclusion from these studies was the workers reacted positively because management cared about them (the Hawthorne effect).
y The Hawthorne effect is the tendency of people to
behave differently when they receive attention because they respond to the demands of the situation. contd.
The Hawthorne Studiescontd.
y
The Hawthorne studies also led to many other conclusions, such as the fact that effective communication with workers is critical to managerial success
The Human Relations Movementy The human relations movement was based on the
belief that an important link exists among managerial practices, morale, and productivity.y Key points of the movement are that satisfied
workers are more productive and that, given the proper working environment, virtually all workers would be highly productive.
Contingency Approachy Writers in the 1950s and 1960s who adopted a more
psychological orientation.
y Major focus was the personal adjustment of the individual
within the work organisation and the effects of group relationships and leadership styles.

Contingency ApproachHERZBERG isolated two different sets of factors affecting motivation and satisfaction at work. 1. Hygiene or Maintenance Factors - concerned basically with job environment. Extrinsic to the work itself. 2. Motivators or Growth Factors - concerned with job content. Intrinsic to the work itself. Goal of managers is to achieve a state of no dissatisfaction by addressing Hygiene Factors. Task of improving motivation is then by addressing the Motivators.
Contingency Approach
McGREGOR argued that the style of Management adopted is a function of the manager s attitudes towards human nature and behaviour at work.
He put forward two suppositions called Theory X and Theory Y which are based on popular assumptions about work and people.
Contingency ApproachTHEORY X ASSUMPTIONSy People do not like work and try to avoid it. y People do not like work, so managers have to control, direct,
compel, and threaten employees to get them to work toward organisational goals.y People prefer to be directed, to avoid responsibility, to want
security, and have little ambition.
Contingency ApproachTHEORY Y ASSUMPTIONS People do not naturally dislike work; work is a natural part of their
lives. People are internally motivated to reach goals to which they are
committed. People are committed to goals to the degree that they receive personal
rewards when they reach their objectives. People will seek and accept responsibility under favourable
conditions. People have the capacity to be innovative in solving organisational
problems. People are bright, but generally their potentials are under-utilised.
Contingency Approachy A cornerstone of the human relations movement is Theory X and Theory Y of Douglas McGregor. y Theory X is the somewhat stern and pessimistic traditional assumptions about worker capabilities. y Theory Y is an alternative, and optimistic, set of assumptions
The Contingency Approachy The
contingency approach to management emphasizes there is no one best way to manage people or work.
y The contingency approach is derived from the
study of leadership styles.
y The strength of the contingency approach is that
it encourages managers and professionals to examine individual and situational differences before deciding on a course of action.
Milestones in the History of Organization BehaviourIndustrial RevolutionRobert Owen, Andrew Ure and J.N. Tata provided certain welfare facilities. The ideas degenerated into paternalistic approach.
Scientific Management
Taylor believed in rationalizing production. He believed Early 20th Century that human behaviour was based on rabble hypothesis.
Human Relations Movement
Great Depression, labour movement and during 1920s to 1940s Hawthorne led to the movement. The movement subsequently became a fad Organisational behaviour 1950 s
Contingency Approach
The contingency approach is that it encourages managers and professionals to examine individual and situational differences before deciding on a course of action-1960 onwards.
