CHAPTER IINTRODUTION

1.1 OUTLINE OF THE PROJECT:

The topic “Intra Organizational Relationship and Management Communication” is

chosen because people in the organization join in groups because they have learnt to fulfill

their needs more effectively in groups rather than as individuals. More speifically, they

organize themselvess to attain division of labor and specialization of efforts because it leads

to enhanced proficiency which, in turn, results in greater productivity than what individual

effort can ever provide. Thus an organization is a means to achieve mutual goals more

effectively.

This study was conducted from 16th June to 15th May 2011 at Milma Dairy Farm,

Ambalathara, Thiruvananthapuram.

Intra organizational relationship:

Definition:

Intra organizational relationship means the relationhip that exists among employees in

the organization. This also includes the inter personal relationship between the employees.

Behavoiur of Human:

Human Behavior in organization further complicates the issue because it stems from

deep-rooted needs and ambiguous values of people who are different from each other in

numerous ways. Not withstanding this, it can be partly understood with the aid of behavioral

science which deals with the behavior of people as total integrated human beings within the

complex socio-economic-technical system.

Page 12: Intraorganizational Relationship

At the outlet, it may be pointed out that although application of behavioral science to the

study of human behavior in organization has immense possibilities, we should not have any

misconeptions about it. There is no magic in behavioral science which can solve all the

problems faced by humans at work, as is thought sometimes in over enthusiasm. All that it

can do is to enhance the understanding of human relations skills (i.e, the ability to work with

others and to build a cooperative effort with them) with a view to get things done more

effetively.

The Diagonostic Relationship:

According to the Cummings in his book “Theory of Organizational Development and

Change”, human relations broadly implies the interaction and cooperation of people in

groups which operate in different fields such as buisiness, schools, clubs, homes and the

government. However, in industrial and business settings the term ‘Human Relations’ has a

different connotation altogether for persons in managerial positions. In this context, it means

the integration of people into a work situation which motivates them to work together

effectively, providing them social, psychological and economic satisfaction. Defined this

way, observes Davis, “Human relations are motivating people in organizational settings to

develop teamwork which accomplishes individual as well as organizational goals effetively”.

Human relations can be broadly applied to society as well as to organizations; it would

be plausible to employ a more conise term for the field it embraces in organizations.

‘Organizational Behavior ‘ is the term which has been used in this respect because it focuses

precisely on organizational settings. In fact, both organizational behavior and human

relations in organizations deal with the same theme but reent usage makes it imperative to

differntiate between these two terms and thus justify their continued use.

Work relationships are those involving contacts with people in the working

environment. People fail on the job daily because they cannot deal satisfatorily with its social

and human conditons. Many people who get fired from are no doubt , fired because they

cannot get along with other. Since increase in productivity is the ultimate goal of every

Page 13: Intraorganizational Relationship

industrial organization, motivation of employees at all levels is the most critical function of

management. To motivate means to provide an employee with his own generator to produce

a goal-directed behavior. A motivated employee does not need outside stimulation again and

again. His battery does not need to be recharged repeatedly. He is driven from forces within

him and not outside. In brief, he wants to do his job.

MAJOR FACTORS IN INTRA ORGANIZATIONAL RELATIONSHIP

Motivation:

Motivation is one of the important factors affecting human behavior. The level of

motivation not only affect perception and learning but also affects the total performance of

the individuals. The motivation is also affected by various psychological factors discussed

earlier, such as perception, learning, and personality. Thus in order to understand human

behavior completely, the motivational process must be analyzed. .

Trust:

The Trust is a positive expectation that another will not-through words, actions, or

decisions- act opportunistically. Trust is highly intangible element but very important in our

civilized living. Its presence or absence can govern our inter-personal behavior to a large

extent. Our ability to trust has a great impact on our working lives, our family interactions

and our achievement of personal and organizational goals. Good relationship among co-

workers or between employer and employee is based on trust. Without trust, most human

relationships will degenerate into conflict.

Participation :

The Participative management is a process in which subordinates share a significant

degree of decision making power with their immediate superiors. Participative management,

managers share decision-making, goal-setting, and problem-solving activities with

employees. It means the art of taking part. It also relates to process or style of management

Page 14: Intraorganizational Relationship

enabling workers to take part in decision-making process Thus, participation helps in

creating good relationship in organizations.

Relationship:

Relationship instance, a department depends upon other department for resources,

work or information and the other departments depend upon that department for resources,

work or information. One’s understanding of that department is enriched form the knowledge

of its interactions with other departments.

Conflict :

“Conflict is a process that begins when one party perceives that another party has

negatively affected, or is about to negatively affects, something that the first party cares

about”.

Conflict in some form and degree is part and parcel of virtually every part of human life

and hence, organizations are not free of it. It is an aspect of organizational functioning that is

frequently apparent to even casual observer.

Communication:

Communication is the process through which two or more persons come to exchange

ideas and understanding among themselves. Very significant role is played by

communication in the management of modern large organizations. Such organizations are

being designed on the basis of speialization and division of labor and have large number of

people working together. Since they are functionally related to each other, there is high need

of coordination among them. This coordination requires mutual understanding of the

organizational goals, the mode of their achievement.

Communication is very important to the functioning and survival of the organization. It

is through communication that an organization becomes an open system interacting with its

environment.

CHAPTER 2

PROFILE

2.1 INDUSTRY PROFILE:

India has one of the largest live stock population in the world. Fifty percent of the

Buffaloes and twenty percent of the cattle in the world are found in India, most of which are

milk ow’s and buffaloes. In 1998, India overtook the U.S as the world’s largest milk

producer. As india enters into an era of eonomic reforms, agriulture and particularly live

stock sector is positoned to be a major growth area. The fact is that the dairy pays a more

constructive role in promoting rural welfare and reducing poverty.

NDDB:

The National Dairy Development Board (NDDB) was founded in 1965 to replace

exploitation with empowerment, tradition with modernity, stagnation with growth,

transforming dairy into an instrument for the development of India’s rural peoples. The

National Dairy Development Board was created to promote, finance and support producer-

owned and controlled organizations. In the last sixtees, the National Dairy Development

Board (NDDB) draw up a project called Operation Flood meant to create a flood of milk in

India’s villages with funds mobilised from foreign donations. Producers, co-operatives,

which sought to link Dairy Development with milk marketing; were the central plans of this

project.

The white revolution has achieved its first goal of boosting production and flooding

in the countryside with milk. If we see the cross section of the organization in the dairy

sector handling with milk and milk products, we can observe that most of them have been

busy for the last 30 or 40 years organizing village co-operatives, buildings, processing plants

and a few of them creating distribution infrastructure for disposal surplus milk and milk

products. They have been thus laid the foundation for growth.

Page 16: Intraorganizational Relationship

Government of Kerala:

The dairy sector in kerala has reached a very interesting stage in its growth curve.

During the last three decades the sector has witnessed interupted growth both in terms of

animal production and milk production. More importantly the state bovine population went

through a dramatic work done by Indo-Swiss project, the large scale calf-breeding program

initiated by the government of Kerala.

The dairy development was formed in 1962, under the State Government for

developing the dairy set up. The dairy department has many programmers like training the

farmers, forming co-operatives, providing farmers with better quality cattle, imparting recent

technology, etc. Kerala had no recognized breeds of cattle of buffalos in the past, exept for

the small sized vechur breed, which is on the verge of extinction now. So practically we had

only known descript type of cattle yielding not more than 200 kilograms of milk and

accepted by the public.

In 2006-2007, India’s milk production stood at 100, 9 million tones and acounted for

approximately production of total world milk production. It is estimated that by 2010, India’s

milk production will reach 441 million tones.

Butter:

Most branded butter is sold in the towns and cities. Amul is the leading National

Brand while the other players have greater share in their local markets. The latest trend in the

butter market has been Britania.

Dairy:

India has emerged as the largest milk producing country in the world, manufacturing

51 million tones of milk per annum. The organized market for dairy products like butter and

cheese was dominated by the regional milk co-operarives such as Amul, Vijaya etc.

Page 17: Intraorganizational Relationship

World Milk Production:

India has become the world’s no.1 milk producing country,with output in 1999-2000

forecasted at 78 million tonnes. United States, where the milk production is anticipated to

grow only marginally at 71 million tonnes, occupied the top slot till 1997, India’s milk

production was on par with the U.S at 71 million tonnes. The world milk production in 1998

at 557 million tonnes would continue the steady progress in recent years. Furthermore, the

annual rate of growth in milk production in India is between 5-6 percent, against the world’s

at 1 percent. The steep rise in the growth pattern has been attributed to a sustained expansion

in domestic demand, although per capita onsumption is modest- at 70 kg of milk equivalent.

India’s annual milk production has more than trebled in the last 30 years, rising from

21 million tones in 1968 to an antiipated 80 million tones in 2001. This rapid growth and

modernization ia largely credited to the contribution of dairy co-operatives, under the

Operation Flood Project, assisted by many multi-lateral agencies, including the European

Union, the World Bank, FAQ and WFP. In the Indian context of poverty and malnutrition,

milk has a special role to play for its many nutritional advantages as well as providing

supplementary income to some 70 million farmers in over 500,000 remote villages.

2.2 COMPANY PROFILE:

Page 18: Intraorganizational Relationship

MILMA- “ the milk man of Kerala” is an organization concerned with the procurement,

processing, marketing and distribution of milk and milk products. The name milma and its motto your

health is our concerned has become synonymous with regular supply and assured quality.

A Brief Background

During the 60’s in Anand in Kaira district in the state of Gujarat. Thousand of milk producers

united together co-operative lines with an integrated appraoch applied to activates from

production marketing of milk. This resulted in the formation of former owned AMUL(Anand

Milk Producers Union Limited). The products of AMUL have gained reputation all over

India. This model came to be known as “ANAND PATTERN”. The Anand Pattern is a three

tier structure consisting of village level primary co-operative society called APCOS (Anand

Pattern Co-operative Societies). Regional co-operatives milk produers union and state level

operative goes to the National Dairy Development Board.

Birth of KCMMF

Kerala Co-operative Milk Federation Limited (KCMMF) popularly called MILMA was

Union (TRCMPU) and Ernakulam Regional Co-opeative Milk Producers Union (ERCMPU) formed

in 1985. The third union via Malappuram Regional Co-operative Milk Producers Union (MRCMPU)

was formed in 1986. The Thiruvananthapuram Dairy, with employee strength 500 was established in

Pattam, with a processing capacity of 10000 litres of milk per day. In those days milk was sold in

bottles and cans. In 1983, the Dairy was taken over by the Kerala Co-operative Milk Marketing

Fedaration. They named their brand as MILMA.

CHAPTER 3

REVIEW OF LITERATURE

3.1 LITERATURE REVIEW:

According to Chiles and McMakin, The relationships among individuals have

always been a relevant role in their private social or business or business lives. This role has

become fundamental as people and organization are often centered on creating, developing,

and maintaining relationship usually, there are several components that can influence

relationship the most important being the trust level among the parties.

According to Martyn Jones and Mohammed Scad and Vande Ven, “Intra

organization relationship through partnering is strongly dependent on the relation between

individuals. Evidence suggests that emphasizing internal relationship with employees and

reinforcement of their commitment are strategic prerequisites to closer external relationship.”

The intra organizational relationship between individuals environment and the group of

organization. There are three attributes of intra organizational relationship accounted for over

fifty percent of the variance productivity among the survey plants. The length of membership

was a reasonable indicator of productivity level.

Hirano (1986) categorized Malaysian HR practices into two mainstreams, namely

British oriented values and ethnic oriented values. It is fount that companies were managed

either in more of the British or the indigenous way. Training refers to acquisition of

knowledge, skills and competencies as a result of teaching of vocation or practical skills and

knowledge that relates to specific useful skills.The companies often lose talented cadres due

to less attractive pay packages and lack of training facilities. Training helps to improve

efficiency and performance to ensure that the organization is capable of responding to the

challenges of its competitors will sometimes require a very different kind of training

program.

Page 25: Intraorganizational Relationship

Rioux, Berthal & Wellins (1989) in their study they stated that training and

development can be given to the employee in the following circumstances

Expand the job to include new, higher level responsibilities.

Reassign responsibilities that the employee to manage and make decisions.

Invite the employee to contribute to more important, department or companywide

decision and planning.

Provide more access to important and describe meetings.

M m n bProvide more opportunity to establish goals priorities and measurement.

Assign reporting staff member to his or her leadership or supervision.

Assign the employee to head up projects or tams.

Enable the employee to spend more time his or her boss.

Provide the opportunity for the employee to cross train in other roles and

responsibilities.

Organ & konovsky (1989) stated that certain HR activities like sophisticated

development training, redesign and customization of benefits scheme, comprehensive

medical benefits for family provides employees with a sense of comfort in that their career

advancement and family welfare considered. Training helps to increase the skill. An increase

in skill usually results in an increment in both quality of output. The increasingly technical

nature of modern jobs demands systematic training to make possible even minimum level of

accomplishment.

A survey by MEF (1996) showed 90.5 percent of 304 companies practiced

performance based reward system although seniority still minimally counts to varying degree

n pay decision. Similarly promotion based on seniority as a reward for loyalty is replaced

with a performance and merit system. Most managers know that a trained employee makes

their jobs easier and are essential to an organization long term success. Winning the loyalty

and commitment of talented employee is a critical managerial responsibility and a key to

survival in the ever changing world of work.

Page 26: Intraorganizational Relationship

Fishbein & Aizen (1996) in his study, he found that recruitment practices are

rigorous and stringent with prospective employee being thoroughly screened before

employment. These efforts ensure staff of a high caliber. There is also a strong focus on

personal development which is evidence extensive training in both technical and soft skills.

Researchers found that orientation will help the employees to reduce anxious and it

will reduces the turnover of newly hired employee was caused primarily by anxiety.

Employee orientation is aimed to create a favorable impression of the organization and its

works.

Becker and Huselid (1998) offer the most logical and definitive model of the

processes through which HR practices affect firm performance. They suggest that HR

practices have a direct impact on employee skills, motivation job design and work structure.

These variables elicit certain levels of creativity, productivity and discretionary effort, which

subsequently translate into improved operating performance. This has an impact on

profitability and growth, which have a direct impact on firm market valuation. Organization

commitment define as the psychological attachment of the workers to their organization

commitment to organization has been found to relate positively to a variety of desirable work

outcomes including employee job satisfaction, motivation and performance are negatively co

related to absenteeism and turnover.

Meyer and Allen (1998) in their study they stated that impact of HR practices on

employee’s commitment to the organization begins with selection and staffing. When firm

invest in selecting most highly skilled people and providing them with increased skills

through continuous training development opportunities, employee find a work place filled

with well qualifies co workers. This makes for appositive work environment by enabling

them to focus on serving own customers successfully, doing their own job well and not

having to constantly clean up the mess of other co workers. Additionally by using valid

performance management systems and monetary incentives the performance can be elicited.

Employees can see a more direct line of sight between their behavior and their personal

Page 27: Intraorganizational Relationship

outcomes. This creates a positive work environment where individual feel fairly and

equitably rewarded for their efforts, finally have open communication and participate

systems enables employees to both understand the organization competitive position and be

able to participate in processes to help to improve it. This creates a positive work

environment where people feel they are listened to and respected. An environment created by

the systems above will make the people unlikely to want to leave.

Recruitment lends itself as a potential source of competitive advantage to a firm. An

effective approach to recruitment can help a company successfully compete for limited

human resources. The firm must choose a recruiting approach that produces the best pool of

candidates quickly and cost effectively.

Huselid (1998) states that, recruitment itself lends as a potential source of

competitive advantage to the firm. An effective approach to recruitment can help a company

successfully compete for limited human resources. The firm must choose a recruiting

approach that produces the best pool of candidates quickly and cost effectively.

A recruiting program helps the firm in at least four ways.

Attract highly qualified and competent people.

Ensure that the selected candidates stay longer with the company.

Make sure that there is match between cost and benefits.

Help the firm create more culturally diverse work force.

Training helps to build morale among the employees. Possession of needed skills

helps to meet such basic human needs as security and ego satisfaction. Collaborate personal

and human relation programs can make a contribution towards morale.
