MANAGERIAL ROLES

DEFINE OB

▪... a field of study that

investigates how individuals,

groups and structure affect and

are affected by behaviour within

organizations, for the purpose of

applying such knowledge toward

improving an organization’s

effectiveness.

▪ OB conducts systematic studies,

adapts an evidence-based

approach.

▪ Managers rely on their intuition.

▪ Systematic studies focus on relations

among variables in order to detect cause

and effects

▪ Evidence-based management refers to

making decisions on the best available

scientific evidence

▪ Intuition: a gut feeling not necessarily

supported by research.
