Organisation behavior
This chapter discusses personality and values. Personality, in this context, can be defined as the summation of ways in which a person interacts with and reacts to other people. Managers need to do a personality test before hiring any employee (Robbins & Judge, 2011). This is because the tests will help determine the people best suited for the job.
The best way to measure an individual’s personality is by using a self-report survey. In this survey, the individuals evaluate their personality based on certain factors, for instance, “I do not function well under pressure.” The self-report reveals a person’s weaknesses and strengths (Robbins & Judge, 2011). People with good personality traits and desirable strengths will contribute to the success of the organization. On the other hand, people with negative behavioral traits and
weaknesses will cause organizational failure (Robbins & Judge, 2011).
Next, discuss how the term or concept could lead to success or failure (choose only one) of your company’s Management Functions or future endeavors.
