Credit Points: 15 | |||
Description: | |||
This unit provides an opportunity to critically explore the various issues that influence the management of human behaviour and relationships in an organisational context. Traditional approaches to organisational behaviour will be presented and contrasted with recent developments arising out of social psychology and sociology. This unit also examines the psychology of individual differences and how diversity affects personality, perceptions, emotions and the experience of stress resulting in behaviour that tis difficult to predict from a traditional perspective. Social psychological and critical approaches to organisational behaviour are utilised to explore how individuals make sense of their world, how they construct a sense of self and how this may change in a group setting. This unit assists managers to understand the formal and informal characteristics of the behaviour of groups, why they form, and why teams and other management initiatives may have dysfunctional outcomes. behavoiur Full Unit Outline | |||
