Models of organizational behavior: SUPPORTIVE-AUTOCRATIC MODEL
The episode shows how the members in the organization behaves in a support yet autocratic way. Annalise Keating’s is the person in command, she has the power to demand her students and co-lawyers “to do this-or else,” and it was shown when her students does not follow the orders, they will be kicked out. Also, with he co-lawyers. However, i think that the supportive model also applies since the students also have their fair shares of responsibilities so it is clear that Annalise is supporting them. Moreover, supportive model is evident since Annalise and her co-lawyers supports the students in their work, the psychological result is a feeling of participation and task involvement in the organization. making the students say “we” instead of “they” when referring to the organization. Also, because of the statue that gives them recognition that they did a great job, the needs are better met. Thus they have awakened drives for work.
