How can an employee’s unique perceptions impact their relationship with their manager?

Attitudes, Perceptions, and Behaviors

In the study of human behaviors, organizational leaders must understand concepts such as values, attitudes, perceptions, and behaviors of people. The objective is to align their thoughts, emotions, and competencies with organizational success. We often ask why people do things the way they do or behave in a certain way. Research these attributes and provide references.

Address one of the following questions:

How are values formed? How do they influence our attitudes toward our work and our colleagues? Do values tend to stay fixed and static, or do they change over time?
There is a saying from the literature of cognitive psychology that “perception is reality.” How can an employee’s unique perceptions impact their relationship with their manager? How can managers mitigate the impact that differences in perception might have?

What can organizational leaders do to foster a positive work environment? Should leaders discourage all negative feelings and behaviors in the workplace? Explain your rationale.
