18. Behavioral Approach
Motivation Leadership Attitude
Behavioral management theory was developed in response
to the need to account for employee behavior and motivation. The
shift moved management from a production orientation (classical
leadership theory)to a leadership style focused on the workers'
human need for work-related satisfaction and good working
conditions.
19. Social factors in output: Social factors play a major role in every
organization. An organization is not just a formal hierarchy where all
functions are carried out based on the prescribed policies and guidelines.
Group influence: Workers tend to develop informal groups with people as
per their personal likings. These groups help the workers to overcome the
limitation of the official relationships.
Conflicts: The groups so formed apart from the formal groups may create
conflicts between the workers and the management. There may be
inconsistency between the objectives of the two groups.
Supervision: Supervisory aspect should be used effectively to maximize the
efficiency of the workers and increase productivity.
Leadership: Leadership influences the behaviour of people. A good leader
helps in directing the group, maximizing the working pattern thus
increasing the end productivity which results in profit for the working
organization.
Communication: It is an important segment without which we can’t show
the organization work ethics that results in less productivity and loss for
the organization.

the people through organizational resources and having an output in
the favor of organization in terms of profit.
A manager is the key-person in an organization. His role is very
complex. Not everyone can be a manager. Certain skills or abilities to
translate knowledge into action that results in desired performance
are required to help other employees become more productive.
Managers just don’t go out and haphazardly perform their
responsibilities, good managers discover how to master five basic
functions, those are: Planning, Organizing, Staffing, Leading and
Controlling.
The skills which a manger required to help other employees
become more productive falls under the following categories:
Technical : This skill requires the ability to use a special
proficiency or expertise to perform particular tasks. Example-
Accountants, Engineers, Market Researchers.
24. Human: This skill demonstrates the ability to work well in
cooperation with others. A manager with good human skills has a
high degree of self awareness and a capacity to understand or
empathize with the feelings of others.
Conceptual: This skills calls for the ability to think
analytically. Analytical skills enable managers to break down
problems into smaller parts, to see the relations among the parts
and to recognize the implications of any one problem for others. The
higher the management level, the more important conceptual skills
become.
Although all these categories contain skills essential for
managers, their relative importance tends to vary by level of
managerial responsibility.
