By Mohammed Al Hajji.

In this page, we will be talking about the five organizational behavior models, and wewill give a brief explanation for each one. Also, we will show ou a video of a

comparison between autocratic , and sstems model. In the past ears, there were !

popular common models of organizational behavior, and several of them exist even toda.In addition, some leader, and managers use some of these models in their organizations,

and departments and the are"

In this model we can find that this model relies on power. $or example, managers havethe abilit, authorit to control their emploees and the emploee%s performance in this

stage will be much lower than expected.

2) Custodial Model

&his model usuall depends on economic resources 'mone(. $or instance, managers cansimulate their emploees b offering them facilities, and benefits, but in this model the

emploee%s won%t work as a team ')ess sharing with others( because everone will

depend on hi s self to get more benefits than the others.

3) Supportive Model

&his model relies on leadership. $or example, managers support their emploees b

encouraging, and supporting them to perform a better *ob, get along with each other and

as well as developing their skills. &he +erformance results will be awakened drives.

4) Collegial Model

&his model means that emploees depend on each other cooperativel and work as a

team to do the task. verone will be having a normal enthusiasm self-discipline, and

responsible behavior towards their tasks.

5) System Model

&his model is based on trust, self-motivation, and the performance results will be more

than expected, because emploees will be committed to do their tasks as expected, and aswell as organizational goals.
