Question

How can a university/college level course, "Organizational Behaviour and Leadership" enable you to become a better manager? (points should be precisely explained)

Answer 1

The organizational behavior and leadership gives the ability to the students specifically about how to behave in the organizations and how to lead a team. Let us understand with an example, suppose you have been appointed a team leader of group. Among other topics there is a topic named Team Development Process. In this process the students come to know by what phase a team goes through. There are five phases of team development process- forming, storming, norming, performing and adjourniung. In the storming stage there are heavy conflicts in the team. The team member point out finger to the team leader and mark thim or her inappropriate and less capable. The word storming has come from the word storm. It means storm is peak at this level. So an uneducated manager may leave the team because of the storms. But if you have gone through the organizational behavior and leadership course then you will come to know that this is a part and partial of the team development process and this happens in storming stage of team development. So you will be able to manage and as you will be very calm and able to manage the behavior of the team members effectively. So the university or college level course gives the skill to a student to handle the real life situations coming into the corporate life
