Organizational Behavior [The of the will appear here] [The of the id will appear here] [The of the will appear here][The name of the course number will appear here]Organizational culture and structure are an important component of the business model. It is these that have a profound effect on the employee motivation level which directly impacts the performance of the company. When organizational culture and structure takes in account the people of the organization, then employees feel valued. Such employees work hard for the organization; absenteeism level is low in the organization and employees feel a sense of ownership towards the organization.
In a high performance culture, all employees are involved in the operations of the company. Employees help in the decision making power and their insight is valued in the organization. The employee insight is important because often employees have a better idea of dealing with problems in the organization because they face such problems on a daily basis. Also employees perform well in cultures which’ nurtures and supports them and helps them to work towards the achievement of their ambition’ (Business Case Studies, n.d.).
An example of this is Siemens that values its employees by motivating, monitoring and nurturing them. Organizational structure also has a strong impact on the performance on an organization. When the role and position of the employees are clearly mentioned, there is little conflict in the organization. Also employees understand their value in the organization which then motivates them to perform better in the organization. Organization culture and structure are inherently linked. When organizational structure is flat, it develops a high performance culture in the organization.
When there is a high level of hierarchy present in the company, then the culture is often rigid. Rigid cultures prevent employees from developing attachment with the organization which effects overall performance of the employees. ReferenceBusiness Case Studies, n.d.
