The manager invests time to build relationships, handles conflicts in a constructive
manner, and shares control.
In Mobilink, the transformational and collaborative leadership style is used where employees are
motivated with shared vision, mission and statement of the future and all of these are
communicated well to employees. Management inspires their team members because they expect
the best from everyone and everyone is accountable for their actions. In Mobilink, clear goals and
targets are set quarterly and annually and for that reason, it leads to high productivity and
engagement.
4. JOB DESIGN:
The basic function of human resource management is task design and it is related to specific
contents and methods that are used to satisfy technological and organizational needs. Mostly job
design is used by the Mobilink Company in order to reduce the job dissatisfaction and increase the
productivity. (Mobilink)
5. JOB REDISIGNING:
The Mobilink Company gives the responsibilities and roles to the people in which they
have interest and it becomes the source of motivation. These things have a great impact on efficacy
and efficiency of the organization. (Mobilink)
6. JOB ROTATION:
Mobilink mostly uses job rotation in the organization but on the temporary bases. It
enhances the employeeâs skills and the employees can see in broader perspective how their
organization operates. This also increases understanding with coworkers. (Mobilink)
7. JOB SATISFACTION:
10. IN DEPTH ANALYSIS OF ORGANIZATIONAL BEHAVIOUR OF MOBILINK
10
Job satisfaction is the extent to which an employee is satisfied from his job. The employees
are free to take decisions; they're given as much flexibility as possible. According to the
interviewee they are allowed paid time off as well as sick/annual leaves. The employees can work
from home in case of any problem or emergency. The employees are provided a choice to opt
among the two working shifts. They can either work in the morning shift or in the evening, as per
their own will. Fringe benefits such as fuel, home allowance, conveyance and medical facilities
(OPD, IPD) are provided. Mobilink Company has reached this far only because of the highly
educated and skilled staff.
8. INNOVATIONS AND ENTREPRENUERS:
A department by the name âIdeasâ is made for innovations and entrepreneurs. This
department listens and approves any new ideas made for the betterment of the business. They also
allot a team to the innovator or idea implementer while giving them a good amount of finance to
help them reach their desired goal.
9. WORKING ENVIRONMENT:
"Friendly working environment is a key to organizational success."
The working environment of Mobilink was observed to be friendly. There were no separate
cabins or offices for the employees. People were working together in the same hall; from the senior
manager to the analyst. Nobodywas prioritized on the basis of their position or ranking, everybody
was dealt with equality as each and every individual is uniformly important for the organization.
No cubical structure was observed, there were open work stations and they had an open door
policy.
10. DECISION MAKING PROCESS:
11. IN DEPTH ANALYSIS OF ORGANIZATIONAL BEHAVIOUR OF MOBILINK
11
The information provided by the manager clearly favored Decentralized Decision Making
Process. Each and every employeeâs point of view is considered during the process of decision
making. In Mobilink the decision making authority is distributed throughout a larger group. It also
connotes a higher authority given to lower level workers and functionaries.
There are basically two types of decisions, Programmed and Non-programmed. Mostly,
non-programmed decisions are carried out all day by the employees. All the decisions are made
with the customer in mind. Whereas, planned decisions are taken at the top level.
11. TRAINING PROGRAMS:
Mobilink has centers where proper training is provided to the employees for the time span
of 3-7 days. In this process an experienced employee provides proper assistance, guidance, training
and advice to the newly hired employees.
12. DIVERSITY:
Cultural diversity exists in Mobilink, as even the two managers whom we interviewed
belonged to different areas of Pakistan. According to the employees diversity is not a problem as
the medium of communication is English and Urdu and every individual working there is familiar
with these languages. Furthermore they've been divided into groups and teams in order to
accomplish their targets.
With diversity comes creativity, as every individual has his own point of view which leads
to new and unique ideas.
13. TASK PLANNING STRATEGIES:
12. IN DEPTH ANALYSIS OF ORGANIZATIONAL BEHAVIOUR OF MOBILINK
12
Employees working in Mobilink Company are assigned the tasks periodically. Targets are
set either on daily or weekly basis, for that purpose they are divided into groups. Groups are asked
to plan their own strategies to complete their goals and accomplish the targets. This gives a sense
of value to the employees and they consider themselves as part of the organization.
14. DIRECT COMPETITORS:
According to the interviewee the direct competitors of Mobilink are:
ï· Telenor
ï· Zong
14.1. COMPETITIVE EDGE:
Mobilink has a strong and better network. Its strong team and executives, and the largest customer
base gives it an edge over its competitors.
15. PROBLEMS FACEDBYTHE ORGANIZATION:
ï· SHORTAGE OF EMPLOYEES
After the merger of Mobilink and Warid, the company had to face a serious employee
shortage problem. Consequently, it became difficult for the company to achieve the targets.
As a result stress and workload increased at the part of the employees, as they had to
perform a lot of tasks at one time.
ï SOLUTION:
1. Recruiting new employees
2. REDEPLOYING SKILLS
3. RETRAININ
13. IN DEPTH ANALYSIS OF ORGANIZATIONAL BEHAVIOUR OF MOBILINK
13
ï· FAVOURTISM BY MANAGER
Another problem faced by the employees is the favoritism by the manager to some of the
employees in terms of their skills or due to some other reasons. Favoritism is considered
discrimination and discrimination is illegal and immoral. It happens when employers make
job decisions based on employees' protected characteristics that state, governments have
decided should not be the basis of employment actions. This will result in decline
Companyâs performance, decrease in Job satisfaction and engagement of the employees
and might also result in the organizational conflict.
ï SOLUTION:
1. It is recommended that the organization should introduce or establish a policy
prohibiting favoritism in the workplace.
2. The organization should specify practices that are considered favoritism and indicate
punishment related to favoritism practices.
3. This will lead to the positive impact in the employeeâs behavior and also increase the
job satisfaction and improve the relationships between the employees.
ï· REFRENCES DURING RECRUITMENT
The problem that arises during the recruitment process is that the mangers prefer their
friends and relatives for the specific job without looking to their knowledge and skills. This
will affect the other people who have applied for the job and are more capable. Due to this
discrimination occurs and as a result organizational conflict, resentment and
demoralization and decline in companyâs performance increases.
ï SOLUTION:
1. The company should hire the employees on merit and fair basis.
14. IN DEPTH ANALYSIS OF ORGANIZATIONAL BEHAVIOUR OF MOBILINK
14
2. Proper job interview and test should be conducted and the recruitment team should hire
the employees that score high for the job.
3. The references and the favoritism should be strictly prohibited so that everyone should
be treated equally.
CONCLUSION
Organizational Behavior forms an integral part of organization for prosperity. Greater emphasis
needs to be laid on controlling and monitoring of organizational behavior because in the present
dynamic environment, employees are the key to success in any organization.
Mobilink is a customer oriented company with only one obsession that is the Customer. The
company wants to satisfy the customer as much as they can but within the limits of the
organizational policies.
âThe Mobilink Foundation is a registered non-profit organization, which provides support for the
local community not only financially but also through dedicated volunteer hours. Being a
philanthropic organization, it is purely based on employee volunteerism. No administrative costs
or overheads are incurred age the organization and therefore, every single penny that is donated to
Mobilink Foundation goes directly into making a difference on the ground.â (Mobilink
Foundation, 2013)
The company treats all the employees like their own people hence bringing out the best in them.
This is very useful as the people in the company want to work for long hours and give back to
company as much as the company invests in them.
