Summary

What Information We'll Cover

Determining why employees do what they do at work can often be a struggle for leaders, even those leaders in behavior analysis. This course shares an approach to analyzing an organizational system from the performer perspective, also known as the job-level of a systems analysis. Through a case study, participants will be shown how this analysis can be conducted in a human service organization to assist in identifying and removing barriers for staff, hopefully changing the common perspective that is often taken around “lazy” or “disengaged” employee behavior. Literature will be reviewed from Rummler and Brache, Carl Binder, John Austin, and other articles from the Journal of Organizational Behavior Management will be discussed to support this approach to applying human behavior at work.
