Abstract
Organizational effectiveness considerably depends on the morale of its work force. Morale is the enthusiasm with which workers as individuals and as groups respond to their work situation and requirements. It is a state of healthy balance in the organization in which people make their respective contributions to achieve their set goals, maintain their sense of worth besides developing their abilities, knowledge and skills. Every organization should have personnel policies in order to accomplish the objectives of the personnel as well as the organization. Periodic updating of personnel policies is essential to keep pace with the changing times to avoid managerial stagnation of personnel policy. It is found that to attain goals, factors like men, money, materials and machines are involved, out of which man power is the most important. The relationship between the employer and employee is an integral part for success of any organization. Various interactive behaviors such as inter personal behavior, group behavior, use of power and authority, leadership, communication, conflict and control are the significant factors which affect the climate in an organization, thus, influencing productivity.
