BMGT4062S Leadership and Org Behaviour

Academic Year 2023/2024

Leadership and Organisation behaviour is concerned with trying to provide a critical and holistic understanding of the complexity of contemporary organisational life and of the important role and influence of leadership in this context. To fully understand why people think and act as they do in organisational settings and to effectively lead them we must know something about them as individuals, something about the groups and teams to which they belong, something about the organisation arrangements and processes they are exposed to and about the interaction of all these factors. The purpose of OB as a field of study is to organise and communicate the most valid and applicable knowledge from a diversity of underlying disciplines in a systematic fashion and to emphasise the importance of this understanding in the pursuit of individual and collective goals.
