motivation :: essays research papers

There are several Organizational Behaviors that can be attributed towards how successful a company or one in a company will be. I have decided that the two most important elements are the motivational behaviors and the stress factors. The reason I have chose these are that someone that is motivated and can deal with stress in positive ways will be a success. Also when a corporation can motivate its employees and helps them deal with stress they are usually successful as well. Stress is a very serious problem, and can be affiliated with many fatal conditions. Stress can also be put into positive use by the correct individuals. Eustress is stress at normal healthy levels and will be prevalent in motivated individuals. In emergencies eustress can be used to enhanced focus and give a burst of energy. Eustress also has other positive effects such as cardiovascular efficiency and increased arousal. In the Japanese workplace there is too much stress and is causing somewhat of an epidemic. Yearly about 30,000 workers die from a condition known as "karoshi†, which is when they literally work themselves to death. Although in America the stress levels haven’t become an epidemic some surveys show that about 75% of American workers consider their jobs stressful. There are several factors that contribute to these high stress levels. At the moment the way the world is becoming globalized and how America is in an economic recession that is causing downsizing are considered the two biggest stressors. The downsizing is not only because of the recession but a common trend in business is to hire less then adequate number of workers then working them to their full potential or even beyond their full potential. Another problem that causes a lot of stress is known as â€Å"a square peg in a round hole†. This is when an individual is in a position that does not fit their personality. An example of this is someone such as an extrovert working a position that is better suited for an introvert. Sometimes one personality may not fit what they are doing at work and will be more successful in a different position. This is something many managers ignore so if someone wants to change their job they have to do it themselves.
