...There is so much pressure on the people that are worried about what they look like and worried about what others think about them that they turn to a horrible option in eating disorders. Not only do eating disorders cause muscle loss, reduction of bone density, lack of nutrients, and fainting but it also can result in death. A change in this i think would be more advertisments showing that you do not have to be super skinny to be considered attractive or to be a super model. commercials and magzines could put girls that are bigger than the normal cover girl or bigger than the thin super model that everyone is used to seeing on the television. i think that this change could be execiuted by public speaking in schools all over the country to targer the younger population before eating disorders can be an issue. Also i think that educating parents in what to look for and signs that might signal that their child may be going through some troubles and could possibly going through eating...

...Journal of Organizational Behavior J. Organiz. Behav. 22, 43—58 (2001) Big-B versus Big-O: What is organizational about organizational behavior? CHIP HEATH* AND SIM B. SITKLN Fuqua School of Business, Duke University, Durham, NC 27708, U.S.A. Summary This paper is an empirically grounded essay about the current stare of organizational behavior (GB) research and productive future directions. We report the results of a survey of GB scholars about the current importance of various research topics and their importance in an ideal world. We compare the survey responses with an archival analysis of papers published in leading GB journals over a 10-year period. We suggest that many of the topics that our respondents perceive to be ‘under researched’ can be summarized with one particular definition of GB that emphasizes organizing behavior. Considering all three definitions together, we highlight the limitations of the traditional (Big-B and Contextualized-B) definitions and discuss the benefits of a more organizational (Big-O) approach. Copyright ~ 2001 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. Introduction The purpose of this empirical essay is to be provocative. This paper is empirical in that it surveys leading organizational hehavior (GB) scholars to identify which topics they believed are currently important in the field and which should be important in an ‘ideal’ world and we compared their responses to an archival analysis of papers published in leading GB journals over a 10 year...

...1 LESSON NO. 1 ORGANISATION BEHAVIOUR INTRODUCTION Org. Behaviour (in short called as OB) is concerned with the study of the behaviour and interaction of people in restricted or organised settings. It involves understanding people and predicting their behaviour, and knowledge of the means by which their behaviour is influenced and shaped. Organisations are bodies or entities created for a stated purpose They may consist of one or more people. In the case of a sole trader or single operator, he needs to build relationships with suppliers, contractors, customers, clients, and the community. For those that consist of more than one person, internal as well as external relationships have to be created and maintained. Organisations therefore consist of individuals, groups, and relationships. Objectives, structures, systems and processes are then created to give direction and order to activities and interactions. OB is thus of great concern to anyone who organises, creates, orders, directs, manages, or supervises the activities of others. It is also of concern to those who build relationships between individuals, groups of people, different parts of organisation between different organisation, for all these activities are founded on human interactions. OB is therefore concerned with:1. The purposes for which organisations are created 2. The behaviour of individuals, and an understanding of the pressures and influences that cause them to act and react in particular ways. 3. The qualities...
