CHAPTER-1 INTRODUCTION TO ORGANIZATION Concept of organization:
The term organization is derived from the word organism which refers to the composition of organs. Organization is the planned unit deliberately structured for the attainment of specific goal of the organization. It is the composition of two or more persons.
According to John D. money “organization is the form of every human association for the attainment of specific objective” In conclusion, organization is the system composed of people, structure and technology for the achievement of common objective in a dynamic enviroment. Characteristics of organization: The characteristics of organization are explained below: 1. Common objective:
People work in the organization together for the achievement of common objective. Such
objectives are expressed in terms of goals or set of goals. It may be short-term as well as long-term.
2. Enviromental Influence:
Since the organization operates in the enviroment. Its affairs are directly or indirectly influenced
by the enviromental forces. Organization’s goal, structure, policy, culture etc are the internal

bound.
The goal formation process comprises of three steps which are explained below:
ENVIROMENTAL SCANNING
FORMATION OF OVERALL GOAL
FORMATION OF SPECIFIC GOAL
Fig: Goal Formation Process
1. Enviromental Scanning:
It is the act of acquiring information to, monitor change and development in the enviroment.
The following information is gathered.
A. Trend in the external enviromental forces:
The impact of enviromental trend on the organization is analyzed. Generally five year time horizon is
taken for trend analysis. They are PEST:

● economical : economic model, inflation, monetary policy, fiscal policy
● socio-cultural : change in social and cultural value
● technological : level of technology and pace of technological development
B. SWOT Analysis:
Strength, weakness, opportunities and threats analysis is conducted to scan and respond to
data. Strength and weakness exists within the organizations which are under the control of organization.
Opportunities and threats exist in the external enviroment which is not under the control of
organization.
FORMATION OF OVERALL GOALS:
The second step of goal formation process is formation of overall goals. The high level
executives set the organization’s goal, policy, mission, vision and strategy.

basis of corporate goals. These goals are related to the production, marketing and finance etc. such

quantitative measures makes the goal inappropriate. Conflicting goals are also inappropriate goals.
2. Improper reward system
Improper reward system for the achievement of organizational goal can be the problem to goal
formation. Too much emphasis on short-term performance at the cost of long-term problem serves as
the problem to goal formation.
3.Enviromental dynamism
Rapidly changing enviroment can be the problem to goal formation. Technological innovation
and intense competition to goal formation.. Enviromental dynamism requires goal revision.
4. reluctant to establish goal:
Lack of confidence, fear of failure and avoidance of accountability makes the managers reluctant
to establish goals. This serves as problem to goal formation
5. Resistance to change:
Change makes thing different. People resist change. The reasons can be fear of unknown, poor
communication, loss of job security and vested interest. This serve as problem to goal formation.
6. Resource constraints
Lack of resource can be the problem to goal formation. Legal restrictions, increasing competition
and time constraints posed problem to goal formation.
Goal Succession:
Every organization has certain goals such goals need to be reviewed time to time, for achieving
current goals new goals are to be developed to meet the need of changing enviroment or situation after
the current goals. So the act of developing new goals to achieve primary goals or after the current goals
is known as goal succession.
Management must have study of internal and external enviroment as well as analysis of
sufficient, reliable information and data for the succession of organizational goal.
The main reason for the goal succession is:
● Achievement of primary goals
● Enviromental changes
● ambitious to achieve
Goal Displacement:
Sometimes organizational goals need to be completely altered because of government policies,
increasing competition and internal and external enviroment. So the act of developing completely new
goals is known as goal displacement.
Management must have study of internal and external enviroment as well as analysis of
sufficient, reliable information and data for the displacement of organizational goal.

Their feasibility is assessed. 5. Select course of action: The best course of action is selected. Costs, profits and judgment are important for selection of course of action. The limiting factors such as time, cost, quality determines selection. 6. Formulate actions plan: Action plan for each activity is prepared. Such plans set time bound targets. It will respond to following question:
What activities will be done?
How activities will be done?
When activities will be done?
Who will do the activities?
7. Prepare budget: A budget is financial plan. Actions plans are converted in to budgets. Budgets are prepared for each activity to find how much will it cost. They serve as standard for control. They project cost of plans.
CHAPTER-6 MOTIVATION Concept of Motivation:
