Organizational Behavior - Models

Organizational behavior reflects the behavior of the people and management altogether, it is considered as field study, not just a discipline.

There are four different types of models in OB. We will throw some light on each of these four models.

• Autocratic Model:

The autocratic model is the model that depends upon strength, power and formal authority.

• Custodial Model:

The custodial model is based on the concept of providing economic security for employees through wages and other benefits that will create employee loyalty and motivation.

• Supportive Model:

Unlike the two earlier approaches, the supportive model is focused on aspiring leadership. It is not based upon control and authority or upon incentives but instead tries to motivate staff through the manager-employee relationship and how employees are treated on a day-to-day basis.

• Collegial Model:

The collegial model is based around teamwork everybody working as colleagues.
