Organizational behavior focuses on the impact of individuals, groups and structures on human behavior within organizations, with the aim of applying this knowledge to improve organizational effectiveness. The aim of this short program is to deepen our understanding of human behavior in organizations. To do this, we will first look at individual factors such as individual differences and the values that explain behavior.

Next, we will discuss various theories of human motivation in order to understand the role and impact of a manager in creating motivating tasks for employees. We then move on to a group perspective, discussing group processes such as diversity, conformity and groupthink.

We end with an organizational perspective, discussing the different leadership styles that can improve organizational processes.
