Organizational Behavior is the study and application of knowledge about how people, individuals, and groups act in organizations. It does this by taking a system approach. That is, it interprets people-organization relationships in terms of the whole person, whole group, whole organization, and completely social system. Its purpose is to build better relationships by achieving human objectives, organizational objectives, and social objectives.
As you can see from the definition above, organizational behavior encompasses a wide range of topics, the developing an OB model start from individual such as human behavior, change to group behavior and organisational behavior.
Referred to Stephen P. Robbin ideas, the dependent variables are productivity, absenteeism, turnover and job satisfaction. The Independent variables are individual group level and organizational system level variables.
