Organizational Behaviour (HRES1101) – Jeff Kawalilak HRES1101 - Organizational Behaviour Organizational Effectiveness Organizational effectiveness is always a key topic of conversation within the organizational boardroom. Companies are finally realizing that the answer to running an effective business is no longer as simple as cutting costs and increasing workload. Bottom line-thinking can no longer be the bottom line as organizations need to be more creative when addressing effectiveness if they are to be competitive and sustainable in the long term. Organizational behaviour practitioners believe that in order for an organization to truly be effective, they must address and embrace four key perspectives (practices) - not just one or two, but all four: Open Systems Perspective, Learning Perspective, High Performance Work Practices (HPWP), and Stakeholder Relationships. This paper will provide an opportunity for students to explore organizational effectiveness through the lens of OB, and the important role the aforementioned perspectives play in accomplishing this. Instructions:  Consider the work practices and conditions of your current workplace (or perhaps a previous workplace you were employed with). Perhaps your company is strong in all four areas, or perhaps they are only strong in one or two areas and seem to be weak in the other areas of organizational effectiveness. This will be up to you to decide, to explain, and to justify within your paper.  Critically reflect on how the company addresses (or neglects) each of the four components of organizational effectiveness, and then critique how your organization addresses TWO of the four components of organizational effectiveness within your paper (you are only choosing TWO, not all four, for this assignment). Support your claims by providing relevant examples throughout. I am looking for understanding and application of organizational effectiveness. This will require critical thinking on your part which means you will be expected to understand and explore organizational effectiveness through a variety of different lenses as it relates to your organization. Do NOT use secondary information/ research as this is NOT a research paper. Your voice and understanding of organizational effectiveness and its application are what I am looking for.Organizational Behaviour (HRES1101) – Jeff Kawalilak Format:  3-4 pages of content (this does not include the title page), double-spaced.
