the employees drops sharply from the previous standard. Here

According to Katz, attitudes serve four important functions

from the viewpoint of organizational behaviour. These are as

follows:

The Adjustment Function

Ego-Defensive Function

The Value-Expressive Function.

The Knowledge Function



If you are mainly positive ,you will be

focused doing good things, happy

thoughts, and successful outcomes.

OtherwiseIf you are mainly negative, you will be

focusing on bad things, sad thoughts,

unsuccessful outcomes and act and

behave negatively too.
