24 PERCEPTUAL PROCESS The perceptual process is a sequence of steps that begins with the environment and leads to our perception of a stimulus and an action in response to the stimulus. The process is continual but we do not spend time thinking about the actual process that occurs when we perceive many stimuli that surround us at any moment

25 ENVIRONMENTAL STIMULI
Everything in our environment that has the potential to be perceived Includes anything that can be seen, touched, tasted, smelled, heard, movements of the arms and legs or change in position of the body in relation to objects in the environment Objects and people in the immediate environment

26 OBSERVATION Taste Smell Hearing Sight Touch

27 PERCEPTUAL SELECTION Depends on several factors: External factors:
Size Intensity Contrast Motion Repetition Novelty and familiarity Internal factors: Personality Learning Motivation

Long term

48 ORGANIZATIONAL STRUCTURE
Distribution and segregation of work Organizational chart Key factors in organizational structure Environmental factors Strategic factors Technological factors Integrative framework

49 ORGANIZATIONAL STRUCTURE
Environmental factors Suppliers Distributors Competitors Customers Strategic factors Low cost Differentiation Focused

50 ORGANIZATIONAL STRUCTURE
Technological factors Technology Task interdependence Pooled interdependence Sequential interdependence Reciprocal interdependence Integrative framework

Individuals and functions will behave in predictable ways Characteristic of mechanistic structure Formal rules and regulations Centralization of decision making Defined job responsibilities Rigid hierarchy of authority

52 IMPACT OF MECHANISTIC STRUCTURE ON ORGANIZATIONAL BEHAVIOUR
Tightly control the behaviour of employees Employees follow extensive impersonal rules and procedures in making decisions Each employee’s job involves specified area of expertise Employees are appointed and not elected

57 CHAPTER 7 UNDERSTANDING WORK TEAMS

58 STAGES OF TEAM DEVELOPMENT
Forming stage Storming stage Norming stage Performing stage Adjourning stage

Team members set rules by which the team will operate Developing of cooperation and sense of shared responsibility

62 PERFORMING STAGE Team members show how effectively and efficiently they can achieve results together The roles of individual members are accepted and understood At this stage, teams may differ: Continue to learn and develop from their experiences May perform only the level needed for survival

63 ADJOURNING STAGE Termination of work behaviours and disengagement from social behaviours Normally happens when team has achieved their goals A problem-solving or a cross-functional team will investigate and report on specific issue within 6 months

64 DIFFERENCE BETWEEN GROUPS AND TEAMS
A group is two or more individuals who come into personal and meaningful contact on a continuing basis Example: departments, divisions and business units Teams are much smaller than organizational groups

65 TYPES OF TEAMS Functional teams Problem-solving teams
Cross-functional teams Self-managed teams Virtual teams

66 FUNCTIONAL TEAMS Include individuals who work together daily on similar tasks Exist within functional departments: Marketing Production Finance Human resource

67 PROBLEM-SOLVING TEAMS
Focus on specific issues in their areas of responsibility, develop potential solutions and empowered to take action within defined limits Members are employees from a specific department who meet at least once or twice a week for an hour or two

68 CROSS-FUNCTIONAL TEAMS
Bring together people from various work areas to identify and solve mutual problems Effective in situations that require innovation, speed and focus on responding to customer needs Members from several specialties or functions and deal with problems

69 SELF-MANAGED TEAMS Consist of employees who must work together effectively daily to manufacture an entire product or service to customers The teams are empowered (potency, meaningfulness, autonomy and impact)

70 VIRTUAL TEAMS A group of individuals who collaborate through various information technologies on one or more projects while being at two or more locations Work primarily across distance, time and organizational boundaries

71 BUILDING HIGH-PERFORMANCE TEAMS
Clear goals Clear communication Clear role Members’ behaviour Proper decision-making procedure Involvement by all members Rules and regulations of the team Know the complete process of a team
