Preface In the first edition of this book, Chapter 1 stated that “the U.S. health care industry has grown and changed dramatically over the past twenty-five years.” That was an understatement! Since that time, the industry has experienced some of the most dynamic changes that health care managers have seen. In the coming years, more system-wide changes will occur as we continue our push forward to achieve patient-centered, value-based health care. Health care managers are quickly learning that what worked in the past might not work in the future. This was the compelling reason to write an organizational behavior book specifically for health care managers who are on the front lines every day, motivating and leading others in a constantly changing, complex environment. This is not an easy task, as we know firsthand!

The purpose of this book is to provide health care managers and other professionals with an in-depth analysis of the theories and concepts of organizational behavior while embracing the uniqueness and complexity of the industry. Although health care is similar to other industries, it is also

very different. As the nation’s largest industry, health care employs more than 16 million people in numerous interrelated and interdependent segments.

Using an applied focus, this book provides a clear and concise overview of the essential topics in organizational behavior from the health care manager’s perspective. It is our goal to give you a greater understanding of why and how people and groups behave as they do in the workplace. With this knowledge, you will be able to predict and effectively influence the behavior of the people you lead. Please let me know if we accomplish our goal! You can reach us at [email protected] or [email protected].

We have tried to ensure that we referenced all the individuals whose work contributed to the development of this book. However, if by chance we failed to give credit to someone along the way, please contact us so that we can make the necessary correction.

At this time, we wish to thank our families for their patience, understanding, and support over the years. Finally, we wish to thank the many wonderful and caring people employed throughout the health care industry with whom we have had and will continue to have the opportunity to work with. Our

lives continue to be blessed by these dedicated individuals!

Thank you for purchasing (and reading) our book. We welcome your comments and suggestions, and we wish you the best on your health care management and leadership journey.

PART I

Introduction

Part I includes four different but related topics. In Chapter 1, the history of organizational behavior and its importance to today’s health care managers are discussed. Chapter 2 describes the changing environment in which health care managers find themselves. The chapter examines the numerous issues that have emerged within the health care industry because of the nation’s changing demographics. Chapter 3 focuses specifically on cultural competency and the skills that managers need to adapt to the changing environment explored in Chapter 2. Chapter 4 deals with attitudes and perceptions, which are the foundation for understanding organizational behavior. You will find the terms “attitude” and “perception” frequently referred to in the various organizational behavior theories. Finally, Chapter 5 discusses the importance of communication. Recent surveys have revealed that 70% of small- to medium-sized businesses claim that ineffective communication is

their primary problem. Sentinel event data from The Joint Commission estimated that communication failure was the root cause for patient harm 70% of the time in 2400 reported negative outcomes studied. No wonder the ability to communicate effectively is considered an essential job skill for today’s health care managers and leaders.

CHAPTER 1

Overview and History of Organizational Behavior

LEARNING OUTCOMES

After completing this chapter, the student should understand:

The definition of organizational behavior. The major challenges facing today’s and tomorrow’s health care organizations and health care managers. The importance of the Hawthorne Studies to the study of organizational behavior. The importance of McGregor’s Theory X and Theory Y to the study of organizational behavior. The differences between organizational behavior, organization theory, organizational development, and human resources management.

▶ Overview Organizational behavior (OB) is an applied behavioral science that emerged from the disciplines of psychology, sociology, anthropology, political science, and economics. OB is the study of individual and group dynamics in an organizational setting. Whenever people work together, numerous and complex factors interact. The discipline of OB attempts to understand these interactions so that managers can predict behavioral responses and, as a result, manage the resulting outcomes.

According to Ott (1996, p. 1), OB asks the following questions:

1. Why do people behave the way they do when they are in organizations?

2. Under what circumstances will people’s behavior in organizations change?

3. What impacts do organizations have on the behavior of individuals, formal groups (such as departments), and informal groups (such as people from several departments who have lunch together regularly)?

4. Why do different groups in the same organization develop different behavior

norms?
