The concept of perception
The concept of perception describes the process whereby human sensory stimulation is translated into organized experience (Hamlyn D.W., 1961). Perception is one of the major concepts in psychology which measures the relationship between past experiences, individuals way of life and interpretation of how individuals visualize things. An individuals conscience is a very relevant aspect in perception. Two major considerations about consciousness should be put in place so as to understand the concept of perception.
Phenomenal and psychological consciousness is the two major considerations in the concept of human perception. A phenomenal situation such as occurrences that are usually physical and can be observed within the surrounding of a human being makes individuals to perceive in different dimensions. Through such occurrences which results to human sensation, individuals come up with logical solutions to particular problems. The psychological aspect of consciousness is used to explain an individuals capacity to approach certain issues. The process of psychological perception can be summarized into surrounding- input- processing-output which has been supported by many psychologists.
Perceptual organizational process
Perceptual organizational process is a process in which managers in an organization adapt organizing sensory input into interpretable and coherent perceptual structures. This process is usually challenging because of its nature and different organization structure. Various sub processes such as image segmentation, figure ground segmentation and object recognition make the process to be more complicated. A break down of the perceptual organizational process can be analyzed properly through understanding events, people and activities surrounding organization managers.
Managers in an organization make decisions based on their perception about the surrounding environment. The perception of managers in relation to a certain issue is also driven by professional field in which a manager is best at. The process starts when a manager receives constant stream of events involving other people (Breu Karin, 2001).The manager then connects the information received through senses with settings in the organization. This is a tricky process because only sensational managers can afford to analyze certain situations and come up with concrete solution.
The mind at this particular time should be coordinating things with the surrounding environment. The brain is a very important part that should connect events and help managers to come up with possible solution to certain organizational problems. The verdict of the manager is the final step towards perception of various ideas and strategies in an organization. The skill of the manager helps him or her to understand the perceptual process better so as to perceive events and people in an accurate manner. It is thus a process through which a manager in an organization has a better base for making wise decisions.
