- An Applied Psychological Perspective to Understand and Manage People at Work More Effectively

Date: 16th-17th March 2009
Venue: Legend Hotel, Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia

Managing organizational behaviour (OB) Effectively provides a behavioural approach to the management process. It is concerned with and considers the impact made by individuals, groups and structure on behaviour within organisation. The field of OB is interdisciplinary, owing much to psychology, social psychology, sociology, anthropology and political science. The purpose of learning OB is to apply the knowledge gained to improve the organisational effectiveness. Whatever type of organisation you are involved in, now or in future, the people who make up that organisation are the key to its success.

The aim of this two (2) days course is to help those who have, or will have, some role in managing people to understand and manage people at work more effectively. This course looks at OB from applied psychological perspective. Among the key areas that will be covered include foundations of OB, management skills, personality, perception, attitudes, motivation, stress and leadership in the context of work organization.
