2000- to 2500-word research paper on the successful and/or unsuccessful application of organizational behavior concepts in any organization. Select and research three to five organizational behavior main concepts that, uniquely practiced, make your chosen organization either successful, unsuccessful, or a combination of both. The organization you select should provide you with ample opportunities for research, since you will be required to use five to seven references as part of your research. The final paper should be formatted according to APA guidelines, and contain the following elements:
•An introduction and a thesis statement
•A body with supporting evidence and in-text citations
•A conclusion
•A reference list with at least five to seven sources
Choose three organizational behavior main concepts. Your research should uncover how your selected organization successfully uses, or suffers by ignoring, any three of these concepts:
•Decision Making
•Motivation
•Group Behavior
•Communication
•Power and Politics
•Organizational Structure
•Organizational Culture
•Human Resources Practices
•Change Management
Be sure to provide multiple examples of the main concepts as practiced at the organization.
Many organizations use organizational behavior concepts, but not all organizations publicize their methods for success or missteps to embarrassing failures. Select an organization for which a good amount of research has been conducted and has been made publicly available. Some suggestions are:
•General Electric
•Disney
•Microsoft
•IBM
•Southwest Airlines
•Time Warner
•Pfizer
•SAS Institute
•Whole Foods Market
•Starbucks
•Lincoln Electric
•Adobe Systems
