Department of Analysis is responsible for creating business artifacts that detail out client’s requirement and proposed solution to achieve it. These artifacts are then passed to the Design & Build Team who create the high-level design documents and develops the products which client has asked for. Once the product is delivered, it is then passed on to the testing team to ensure that the final product is as per the business artifacts and there are no issues encountered. Accenture is highly formalized organization, where each project while working on a client’s requirement has to adhere to the policies, procedures and norms set by Accenture as well as the clients.

There is many different definitions of organizational behavior, but they are all relatively the same in all cases. “Organizational behavior studies organizations from multiple viewpoints, including behavior within the organization and in relation to other organizations (Boundless.com).” This is not just the study on one organization, but the study within one organization as well as the organization affects other organizations. Organizations can vary in size and all have different outcomes inside the workplace. There are many reasons to study organizational behavior; one of the biggest reasons is to find out what is the best way for a company to operate. If you can pinpoint all of the bad habits a company has and can reverse them, then you will have a better performing company. Everyone company studies their organizational behavior is some way. Calling out an employees and correcting their mistakes is one example. Organizational behavior is only a study on the field and not an actual group within an organization. Almost all actions of an individual can have either a positive or negative affect on a company. Anything from attitude to behavior reflected from the attitudes of people can affect the outcome of a problem.
Organizational commitment is one of the two individual outcomes derived from individual mechanisms like job satisfaction, stress, motivation, trust, justice, ethics, and learning and decision making. These mechanisms and outcomes can be found on the integrative model of organizational behavior (OB).

“Inspired by the International Red Cross movement established to provide assistance to wounded soldiers, the American Red Cross was established in 1881 by Clara Barton and a number of her acquaintances” (Peerbolte, 2011, p. 17).

Hammer can use integrative negotiation to get buy-in for the cost reductions. Integrative negations involve joint problem solving to achieve results that benefit both parties involved. The first step should be to separate the people from the problem. This means, doctors and management should come to the acknowledgement they are negotiating for the greater good, and not attacking each other. No one person in the group should be considered any better than the other. The focus should always remain on cost reduction without compromising the level of healthcare patients receive. All possibilities should be looked at and all criteria should be objective.

Organizational behavior is a learned behavior. In order to have structure in any environment or organization someone has to learn how. We are not born to be good leaders or good supervisors.

With all of the turmoil that is occurring in the United States todays there will always be different ways, new ideas, or new approaches to further our advances in or work place and in our everyday lives.
Applied Organization Behavior is probably one of the most useful classes I have ever taken at SJSU. This class not only prepared myself for the future, but taught the knowledge that I would never seek to figure out on my own. I was able to discover certain characteristics and traits about myself that was untouched. I was able to apply the way I feel and think about everything that goes on in words. With in-depth explanations and situations from this class, it has maneuvered me to understand myself better, yet, an exceptional future manager. The self-assessments led me to a better grasp of what it is like to be an amazing manager. The MBTI assessment bolstered my preferred personality type, which could be used to open lots of opportunities. Being part of a team and working as a team allowed me to figure out my classmates and how to resolve problems when conflicts surface. By creating a personal leadership philosophy, it will remind me of why I do certain actions, and hopefully allowing others to learn and share the experience. These are some of the information and knowledge that will prepare me to face the real world when I get a job and manage people. All of the little details will shape, and differentiate between me and the other managers
