Welcome to the course Managing the Performance of Individuals, course code INDU 1111. This handbook outlines the key details for this course but please also refer to the course Moodle site for information. This course focuses specifically on the subject Organisational Behaviour (OB) which looks at the study and application of knowledge about how people, individuals, and groups act in organizations. It interprets people-organization relationships in terms of the whole person, whole group, whole organization, and whole social system. Its purpose is to build better relationships by achieving human objectives, organizational objectives, and social objectives. Throughout this course a range of ideas associated with research and theory in the area of OB will be examined, with a view to throwing light on a crucial area of the business world.
Managing the Performance of Individuals is a level 1 course which forms part one of a suite of courses where the overarching theme is human behaviour within work organisations. This course is followed in year 2 by OB2 (Teams and Groups) and OB3 (Leadership) in year 3. If you have any comments of queries about the module, please feel free to make an appointment with me. I hope you all enjoy the course, good luck!
