Organisational Behaviour

Module code: MN2104

At their core, businesses and organisations are a collection of individuals, all with different personalities and abilities. How can a random group of people come together and achieve organisational goals? This module introduces you to the theory and practice behind the behaviour of businesses and organisations.

Within this module, you'll consider the influence of individual ability and personality on work-related behaviours and discuss key principles of motivation and job satisfaction. You'll analyse the forces affecting group processes and performance and assess the advantages and disadvantages of different organisational structures, particularly referencing organisational contingencies. Plus, you'll examine the culture of an organisation and its role.
