CHAPTER ONE

INTRODUCTION

1.1     Background of the Study

Workplace relationships are unique interpersonal relationships with important implications for the individuals in those relationships, and the organisations in which the relationships exist and develop.

Studies show that workplace relationships directly affect a worker’s ability to succeed. Because workers are spending an average of 50 hours a week in the workplace, these long work hours are resulting in the formation of workplace friendships. These connections can be both positive, and have the potential to become harmful to the organizational productivity at large (Sias, 2016).

Working relationship can be defined as the relationship between people who interact because of their work; (also) a level of cooperation sufficient to allow work to be done, progress to be made, etc. According to Queensland (2016), good working relationships, where everyone feels respected and supported, help promote a positive work culture whereas, bad working relationship result to conflict among employees and even the clients.

The way one manages key relationships at work with even the most difficult people determine sone’s level of success. According to Mayer, (2014) states that building strong relationships with others heightens one’s ability to gain support for one’s work and manage barriers that will inevitably come up along the way.

There is also a personal perk with effective relationships in that they can make one feels more engaged with his work which can lead to greater job satisfaction and in turn leads to higher organizational performance.

Organizational productivity has been seen as the amount of output an organization is able to produce in alignment with the demands of the customers (Sesha, Iwu, Slabbert and Nduna, 2014). They further explain that the performance of employees determines the productivity of an organization as such if the employees performance is very low, the organizational may lack productivity.

Work environments are becoming increasingly complex and require greater skill to navigate corporate cultures. Without effective relationships, organizations risk poor results, not reaching our full potential and overall job dissatisfaction (Mayer, 2014).

Building relationships is about mutual trust, understanding other people needs, balancing both asking for and giving support and creating win/win situations. Thus, this research work is conducted to examine how working relationship has impact on organizational productivity using banking industries as a field of discuss.

1.2     Statement of the Problem

There is need to actively work at building and maintaining relationships in the workplace and be aware and open to others’ situationsbut studies have shown thatsometimes the absence of good working relationships and its breakdown in an organization can cause conflict or awkwardness. These situations can arise when there is; lack of information, miscommunication, differences in interests and values, discrimination or workplace harassment and a stressful working situation (e.g. resourcing or staffing issues) (Queensland, 2016).

It has been observed that a good working relationship such as sharing knowledge, being honest, recognizing the achievement of others, treating others equally  are good relationship with co-workers, team member, office friends, supervisors among other can be as a result of some factors. When these working relationship as stated above are absent, it may be as a result of some factors also.

Some organizations have not seen the need to have a good working relationship, it may be that some are not aware of its effect to office professionals why others still battle with the ways to cope with good working relationship. This among other problems prompted the researcher to embark on this study with the aim of contributing to current literature on the topic analysis of working relationship and its impact on organizational productivity in Banking Industry.
