This document discusses models of organizational behavior and their effects. It describes five main models: autocratic, custodial, supportive, collegial, and system. Each model is based on a different philosophy and meets different employee needs, resulting in varying levels of performance. There has been a trend toward using the supportive, collegial, and system models, which meet higher-order employee needs and can generate more passion and commitment. The appropriate model depends on the situation and managers should assess which model their organization currently follows.
