Assessment - The profiling of organisational personalities.

Assessment Instructions

Drawing on material from topics one through six and relevant chapters from Woodet al. (2018) AND your readings, provide a critical evaluation of your behavioural traits and behaviours in the group you select in your organisational context.

Assignment Objectives:

- ULO1 Apply organisational behaviour theory to interpret group dynamics within business environments
- ULO2 Analyse how different psychological attributes affect decision-making within organisational groups and operate with emotional intelligence
- ULO3 Analyse organisational behaviour within a context of current real-world critical issues and debates.
- ULO4 Demonstrate an understanding of ethical considerations in organisational leadership.

Assignment Resources:
This task can be completed with Woodet al. (2018) and your readings. A minimum of 5 to 6 references should be listed in your reference list. In order to demonstrate your knowledge of the unit material, you should cite these sources throughout the assignment.

Task
During this assessment task, you are primarily responsible for analysing the dynamics and functioning of a small group and its members. Select a group with which you are familiar or with which you have been active.

Analyse three to five members of the group, including the group leader (if you are not the leader). Theory, concepts, and ideas discussed in Topics 1 through 6 will be applied to this section. Throughout the text, use examples that are well-placed and linked. Using rigorous OB theory integration, you must assess and describe what each individual brings to the group context and how these characteristics impact group functioning positively and/or negatively:

Ideally, the following sections should be included (word limits are in brackets). In each section, a heading should be given (for example, 1. Background to Organisation X); however, if you decide to use subheadings within each section, avoid labelling every paragraph as this tends to disrupt the overall flow and analysis.
Please:

1. A very brief introduction (one brief paragraph) and then get to the assignment key tasks (100 words approximately)

2. Provide a background of the organisation, including its core functions and area(s) of expertise (approximately 200 words).

3. Then, describe the selected group's main role(s), goal(s) and actual contribution to the organisation (formally and/or informally, if applicable). Here you need to explain why you think the group exists and how it performs - based on consistent integration of OB concepts: (approximately 300 words)

4. Describe and analyse three to five members of the group; make sure the group leader is one of these (if you are a member of the group and not the leader, your inclusion in this assignment is optional). Base this section around Organisational Behaviour (OB) related theories, concepts and ideas from Topics 1 through 6 of the unit. Employ well-placed and linked examples throughout. Here you need to assess and detail what each individual brings to the group context and how these individual characteristics impact positively and/or negatively on the functioning of the group based on rigorous OB theory integration: (approximately 800 words)

5. Brief summary or conclusion tying the discussion together: (100 words approximately)
