Therefore, in my humble opinion some procedure or manual typically will not work; a healthy, productive, happy culture is created and changed through an open communication. Organizational managers and/or leaders visible action reinforces the communication and builds upon, or challenges the current cultural norms and beliefs. It is my belief that the concept of social construction of organization culture is imperative for organizational managers and/or leaders.

The research article Call If You Have Trouble by Jack Nasar, Peter Hecht and Richard Wener utilize studies taken from OSU undergrads. The surveys illustrate feelings and actions associated with cell phone use. The research indicates the sense of safety provided by a cell phone urges risk-taking behaviors and subsequently generates more of a chance for victimization. The study supports the argument “Carrying a mobile phone may cause the user to feel safer. That sense of safety, in turn, might lead to riskier behavior” (Nasar, Hecht and Wener, 2).
Humanistic psychology is young compared to the age of other approaches and theories, but very different in the basis that the approach focuses on individual control and free will or choices and steers away from the ideas that all human behavior is based around pleasure. The humanistic psychological approach is one of personal perception, with the goal being to fulfill one’s potential, and to change one’s behavior outside.
