Document Summary
Social inventions (created by people), to accomplish a specific goal (whether it be long or short term) and is a group effort. If one person can meet the goal on their own, then there is no need for an organization. To accomplish goals, we have to pay attention to the attitudes of people in the organization. People usually only do what they want to do. People also don"t behave the same individually as they do in groups. Human resource management is the applied side of ob. Evidence based human resource management attracts, develops and retains good employees. It makes a difference because you can understand people better. If you don"t pay attention to these things, organizations can decline and actually go bankrupt. Predict behaviour: example when the boss is away, people tend to work less. Manage behaviour: react to why things happen and apply what we know to the real world.
