Introduction
There I no doubt people’s moods are influenced by many internal and external factors. No wonder the development of any specific company directly depends on the employees’ moods, hence the organizational climate. This paper will focus on the work climate, job attitudes, and personal relationships between employees.
Understanding of the Organizational Climate
It is a well-known fact that your job requires a responsible attitude throughout all career: from day to day disregarding circumstances and outside factors. However, every human living on this planet needs careful attention in terms of personal needs, personal world perception, and a mindset. Typically, the climate existing in the offices of contemporary business companies corresponds to human moods. It all depends on the perspectives the employees of specific companies have, if there is some good news about promotions and salaries raising there can arouse excitement and optimism. However, there can be opposite feelings like anger, depression, or even fear. The reasons may be different: the specification of the work carried out, personal life occurrences, etc. It has to be mentioned that hugely the climate depends on the leaders/heads that surely pass on good or bad mood across the company. Also, they are the primary persons to set up a certain climate within their workplace. Although the climate is changing all the time it can’t be called a bad trait because this makes a company more alive and human. Otherwise you one would feel like a robot if the climate was constant, which would entail depression because we are humans and it is our nature to have altering moods. Moreover, it needs to be said that restraining our feelings and emotions may lead to evident problems with physiological and mental health. Fortunately, organizational climate is deeply studied nowadays and this gives hope for a better understanding of the inside moods.
Job Attitudes
A happy employee is a productive employee. Besides, the extent of efficiency and productivity of some particular person strongly depends on job satisfaction. As it was defined by Locke the job satisfaction is … a pleasurable or positive emotional state resulting from the appraisal of one’s job or job experiences (Anderson, p. 26), this is what an average employee should feel when going to work to succeed and be beneficial to his/her company. Also, the job attitude can be simply defined by answering the following questions: what do I want to do for a living? Is it stable within my occupation? Is this job suitable to work and plan for retirement? These are the prior concerns an average employee has when distinguishing the job attitude. The best way to predict job satisfaction is foreseeing an opportunity to overcome job challenges, their variety, and scope.
Personal Relationships at Work
Of course, it is not a surprise that personal relationships at work are discouraged. Neither it is good for the employees nor their chiefs. To be more exact, personal affairs and friendships at work entail feelings of injustice and impropriety by other co-workers who would probably want to have the same but they don’t since they are more obedient before corporate rules. Hence, this can also subsequently lead to the bad performance of the organization overall.
Conclusion
Every single aspect of human behavior should be taken into consideration when one aims at improving the work climate, job attitudes and restricting personal relationships at work.
