Imagine you are applying fora position at a local health care company. Since culture is important to workplace satisfaction, you plan to examine the company's organizational behavior to determine if you will be a good fit for them and if they will be a good fit for you, but first you need to complete a self-assessment on what creates a good fit for you. The best way to self-assess is to examine current and past work experience. This assessment will help youdetermine the impact and application of organizational behavior. It may provide some insight into how health care managers can use theircoordinatingskills to improve the overall team and organizational behavior.

Preparing for the Assessment

Consider the infographic below. Organizational behavior starts and ends with people, particularly how individuals, groups, and the organization communicate and interact with each other - positively or negatively. Research aspects of culture and organizational behavior as you complete the grid for this assessment.

Part 1

Use the circle grid as inspiration as you create an outline of the following prompts for an organization you currently work for or one you worked for in the past.Note: The organization you choose doesn't have to be health care specific.

This is a self-assessment activity and needs to be understandable to the reader but does not need to be in paragraph or paper format. Consider phrase or sentence-length answers for the prompts.Note: You are welcome to recreate the circle grid above (or another visual) to share the following answers if you prefer.

• Individual
• What type of employee are you?
• What motivates you in a work setting (e.g., training, empowerment, etc.)?
• What impact do you, as an employee, have on the overall organization?
• Group
• What type of leader do you have?
• What impact does your team have on the overall organization?
• Organization
• What are the performance expectations for employees (i.e., high sales, quality of care, etc.)?
• What resources does the company put into its employees (i.e., empowerment, training, etc.)?
