BUS 520 Week 1 Discussion | Assignment Help | Strayer University
Week 1
Discussion
Part 1: Post a Response
Organizational
behavior is really the combination of four areas of study – psychology, social
psychology, sociology, and anthropology. While each of these areas involves an
examination of people and their interactions, the focuses are quite different:
Psychology - studies the mind and how people make
decisions.
Social Psychology - examines how people work in groups.
Sociology - explores how systems work within the organization.
Anthropology - examines how culture works within the organization.
Now,
assume that you are an organizational consultant and have been asked by a new
CEO to evaluate the strengths and weaknesses of the organization.
- Of the four areas of study
listed above, which would you focus on first?
- Make sure to explain why you
chose this area, and why it would take precedence over the other areas.
- View this short video for
guidance.
