Abstract

This study focused mainly on the effects of political behaviors in an organization toward organizational effectiveness. The samples of the study were 114 police officers in Bangkok Metropolitan. The questionnaire was employed as a research tool to collect primary data. The researchers used a stepwise regression analysis method to analyze the data. The results indicated that image building and coalition building had a positive impact on organizational effectiveness. However, blaming and attacking others had a negative impact on organizational effectiveness. The findings also indicated that control of information, co-optation, ingratiation, intimidation and innuendoes, networking, inconsiderate, use of expertise, and using key players had no impact on organizational effectiveness. Recommendation and suggestions are discussed in this article.
