FUNCTIONS OF ATTITUDE
1. Adjustment - Attitudes offen help people adjust to their work environment . When Employees are well treated , they are likely to develop a positive attitude towards management and the organisation . When employees are berated and paid poorly, they are likely to develop a negative attitude towards the firms and its owners . These attitudes help employees adjust to their environment and are a basis for future behaviour. example- if employees who are well treated are asked about management or the organization , they are likely to say good things , just the reverse may be true for those berated and are poorly paid. 2. Ego-defence - People often form and maintain certain attitudes to protect their own self-images . example-workers may feel threatened by the employment or advancement of minority or female workers in the organization . These threatened workers may develop prejudices against the new workers . They may develop an attitude that such newcomers are less qualified and they might mistreat these workers . Such an ego defensive attitude is formed and used to cope with a feeling of guilt or threat .

FUNCTIONS OF ATTITUDE
3.Value Expression The expressive function helps individual define their self-concept, and facilitates the adoption of sub-culture values considered important. For example teenagers may dress and behave in a certain way in order to foster their status in a group. The expressive function also helps individuals adopt and internalize the values of a group they have recently joined and as a consequence , they are better able to relate to the group. For example an individual who has joined an ecology group may now express values manifest in the purchase and use of a bicycle and the recycling of bottles . 4.Knowledge Attitude provide the standards or frames of reference by which an individual judge objectives or events, and attitudes that provide consistency in our thinking are particularly relevant. It help us understand and predict how a certain person is likely to behave and it also help the manager to change the attitude of another person . For example he can change people with low self-images by helping them increase their ability to solve their problem, or by providing them with positive feedback on what they accomplish.

VACARIOUS LEARNING

1.Direct experience with object attitudes can develop from a personality rewarding or punishing experience with an object. Employees from attitudes about jobs on their previous experiences. example-if everyone who has held a job has been promoted within six months, current job holders are likely to believe that they will also be promoted within six month . Attitudes formed on experience are difficult to change. 2. Classical conditioning One of the basic processes underlying attitude formation can be explained on the basis of learning principles. Repetition of anything help to learn attitude . The same classical conditioning processes that made Pavlovs dogs salivate at the sound of a bell can explain how attitudes are acquired. 3. Operant conditioning Attitude can be learned due to outcome, consequences, results. If result is positive than a person carry further his current attitude but if it is negative than he change his attitude.

4. Vicarious learning- this refers to formation of attitude by observing behaviour of others and consequences of that behaviour . It is through vicarious learning processes that children pick up the prejudices of their parents . example- if they have never met a blind person, children whose parents say that blind people are incompetent may adopt s.uch attitudes themselves. 5. Family and peer groups A person may learn attitude through imitation of parents. If parents have a positive attitude towards an object and the child admires his parents, he is likely to adopt a similar attitude, even without having direct experience. Similarly attitude are acquired from peer groups in colleges and organisations. 6. Neighbourhood- the neighbourhood we live in has a certain structure in terms of its having cultural facilities , religious grouping and possibly ethnic differences .further it has people who are neighbours. Every their neighbours.

7. Economic status and occupations- our economic and occupational position also contribute to attitudes formation . They determine , in part, our attitudes towards unions and management and our belief that certain laws are good or bad . Our socio economic background influences our present and future attitudes.

8. Mass communication All varieties of mass communicationstelevision, radio, newspapers, and magazines feed their audience large quantities of information. The presentation of news or information is constructed so as to cater to the attitude of the audience. In turn, the audience select the specific form of mass communication that best reflects its attitude on various subjects. The material we select helps us either to substantiate our opinions or to establish new ones.

CHANGING ATTITUDE
Employee attitude need to be changed, particularly when they are unfavourable . It is in the best interest of the organization to change attitude. But changing attitude is a difficult task because of insufficient information about peoples attitude.

Attitude need to be changed at two fronts : 1. changing ones own attitude 2. changing employees attitude

1. Changing Attitude of self The following hints can help the individual change his or her attitude : 1. Be aware of ones attitude People who are optimistic have higher levels of job satisfaction. The individual needs to maintain positive attitude consciously. 2. Think for self The individuals should develop his or her own attitude based on others input. 3. Keep an open mind The individuals should listen to other peoples input and use it to develop positive attitudes. 4. Get into continuous education programme. 5. Build a positive self esteem. 6. Stay away from negative influence, such as smoking, drugs, alcohol, movies and television programs that build negative attitude.

2. Changing Attitude of employees - The following hints can help a manager change attitudes of his or her employees : 1. Give feedback Employees to be told about their negative attitudes, if any, and their harmful consequences. The manager need to offer alternative attitudes. 2. Accentuate positive conditions Employees tend to develop positive attitudes towards the work they do well. Manager should make sure that the working conditions are pleasant and also that the employees have all the resources and training to do a good job. 3. Positive role model If the manager has a positive attitude, employees may also have similar attitudes. 4. Providing new information New information will help change attitudes. Negative attitudes are mainly formed owing to lack of or insufficient information. Once they came to know how the management cares for the welfare of the workers, they change their attitude and might turn pro-management.

5. Use of fear Fear can change attitude. If low levels of fear arousal are used, people often ignore them. If moderate level of fear arousal are used, people often become aware of the situation and will change their attitudes. However, if high degrees of fear arousal are used, people often reject the message, because it is too threatening and thus not believable. So moderate level of fear may helpful in changing attitude of employees. 6. Influence of friends or peers Change of attitude can come about through persuasion of friends or peers. Credibility of the others, specially peers, is important to effect change. Peers with high credibility shall exercise significant influence on change. The same is not true with peers who have low credibility. 7. The co-opting approach Co-opting is another way of changing attitude. This means taking who are dissatisfied with a situation and getting them involved in improving things. 8. Others Individual is more likely to change a privately held attitude than one he has stated publicly. It is, therefore, necessary that a situation is avoided where the individual makes his attitude public prior to the change attempt.
