Module 7 discussion At this point in the course you have many things to keep in your mind about organizational behavior. Chapter 14 addresses job design to the organizational behavior model. As Chapter 14 implies models are often oversimplified and leave out the complicating factor of individual differences (refer back to Figure 3.1 on page 83). Herzberg pointed out that not every job or person is a fit for enrichment. Businesses and their strategies differ and the kinds of skills procedures and behavior required on the factory floor is quite different from those required for a leadingedge design shop. In addition people with the same abilities and personalities may be at different levels in terms of satisfying their needs (e.g. Maslow’s hierarchy). It should be no surprise to you that both job and organizational design are situational and interdependent with many other concepts involved in the “management of human energy.” 1. In either designing the job or in hiring to fill the job does your organization consider any of the individual factors that might influence success? Explain your answer and consider the following factors: – Cultural differences in the people (Chapters 1 and 2) – Personality factors like MBTI type conscientiousness locus of control and hardiness – Where a person is in satisfying their higher- and lower-level needs (Chapter 5) 2. In your organization are there any jobs that appear to have been successfully designed (either initially or as they have “evolved”) using ideas like those described in the textbook? Anchor your comments in the achievement of the three critical states described on page 525 and in the achievement of “engagement” as described on pages 526-527. 3. How would you describe the organization you work for on each of the basic design dimensions (pages 557-558)? What changes in these dimensions have you seen in your organization due to pressures for improved cost/effectiveness or to meet other changes in the environment/competition?
