Organizations can be held anywhere there is a group of people who have the same goal in mind. Organizations can be within a job, school club, or church. Organizations can unite people who are all for the same end results, or negatively organizations can divide people as well, by bringing up the differences within. Ultimately speaking, this course and paper is to provide insight to understanding organizations better within each personal story and experience. Luckily, when writing this paper I can say I have held many jobs, short-term, and long-term to reflect on as I give my insight. Regarding my organizational commitment, I have been loyal to the companies who have been loyal to me. When a company has valuable perks for their employees, it feels like the company is for you as an individual as well as an employee. I worked for one company who did the bare minimum for me. I got 10% off their product when I was off duty, and 15% off while I was on. This job only lasted approximately six months, because I was making minimum wage and receiving the care minimum for the company. In return, my co-workers only worked their bare minimum because that was all that was given to them by the company. This resulted in me being overworked and feeling under-appreciated. It is safe to say, I had very little organizational commitment. This is a perfect example of me being a “lone wolf” as our textbook would describe. (Colquitt 73). This same company I worked for only six months never did

Business Studies is an important course that prepares students to face the real practice of commerce. Engaging theory and practice is instrumental in ensuring that students learn the underlying factors that determine the practice of every business practice. Carroll and Buchholtz (2011) suggest that business forms the backbone of the current economic activities as every activity of human life must involve some loss and gain together. Additionally, he notes that entrepreneurship is taking deep roots in the society, a condition which mandates everybody to possess some knowledge in business. Drawing reference from the aforementioned statements, it is important for the society to have individuals who possess not only
Many may argue that job satisfaction and organizational commitment are the same, but they are actually different.
Organizational commitment is one of the two individual outcomes derived from individual mechanisms like job satisfaction, stress, motivation, trust, justice, ethics, and learning and decision making. These mechanisms and outcomes can be found on the integrative model of organizational behavior (OB). Colquitt, LePine, and Wesson defined organizational commitment in their Organizational Behavior 5th Edition book as the desire of an employee to remain a member of the organization (p 64).

In Management 3000: Organizational Behavior class thought me a variety of useful tools that I can use in the workplace. I am currently working as a marketing intern in the Small Business Development Center and I am also a sales associate for Express Inc. I have worked at Express for over two years and previously I also worked for a local business in Bakersfield called Bella at the Marketplace, these two places are clothing stores and I learned how different a local small business runs rather than a large company like Express. While being in this management course I realized how important it is for managers to take management classes or training because if not the company will not perform that well. For example, in chapter 9 it talks about communication and how important it is to learn how to communicate with your employees. At Express there is five managers, while being in class and reading the chapter I learned how some of our managers lack communications skills between them and to their associates. It is highly important to have an efficient communication process and make sure to give feedback. An example of poor communication is when Express opened an outlet store in Tejon Ranch. The associates and managers came to train at our Express store location and I feel like both teams had a hard time communicated with each other and it creating problems between both teams. Informal communication is the communication that involves spontaneous interaction between
An organization, put in simple terms is a group or assembly of people working alongside one another to achieve common goal or objective through a division of labor and or responsibilities. Business organizations in free market economies are formed to provide services or deliver goods to ultimate consumers for profit. Generally speaking, people form an organization because it provides a means of using individual strengths within a group to achieve more than can be accomplished by the aggregate efforts of group members working individually.
The main objective of this semester was to learn various organizational behaviors that are conducted in a business environment outside the classroom; these would help us as students and as future business entrepreneurs. Throughout the semester, every week different professors came and gave us lectures. Each lecture was about different topic with professors of different departments. Along with the weekly lectures we also had an interactive session that gave us the opportunity to apply the lessons and techniques learnt in our professional and personal lives.
