BUS 311 Week 1 Discussion 1 | Assignment Help | Excelsior-college
The Importance of Organizational Behavior
You are working for an organization that supports continuous
professional development for employees and you are being partially reimbursed
for your tuition expenses. However, your organization is experiencing some
operational strain as a result of budget constraints caused by recent changes
in the external environment.
You mention to your supervisor that you have enrolled in an
organizational behavior course this term since you need your supervisor's
permission to get approved for reimbursement. Your boss would like some more
explanation on why you should use company funds to enroll in this course,
especially given some of the budget constraints that the organization has been
experiencing. She had no issues with your previous enrollment in courses such
as finance, data analytics, and writing since she sees these courses as
enhancing your technical skills, but she wonders if organizational behavior is
mostly common sense. Your supervisor is also not sure why you have to read
about research methods in this course and especially in your introductory
chapter.
Initial Post:
Create a discussion
post that responds to the following issues:
·
What is organizational behavior?
·
Why is it important to study organizational behavior?
·
How will learning about organizational behavior research methods
(section 1.4 of your main reading) help you better understand organizational
behavior concepts?
In responding, we
encourage you to:
·
Provide examples that relate to the actual organization you work for but
please do not specifically identify your organization. If you are not currently
in the workplace, this can be from previous work experience or any other
organization that you have information on.
·
Glance through the list of module titles that we will be covering in
this course and use that as part of your response. [Note: We realize
that at this stage you have not dived into all the topics but the titles
provide a quick snapshot of the issues that will be covered. For example, you
can use the titles to connect your discussion to a challenge your organization
might be facing.]

Respond to at least two of your peers and be sure to mention something
