Perception is a process by which individuals organize and interpret their sensory impressions in order to give meaning to their environment. What one perceives can be substantially different from objective reality. Perception is important in the study of OB because people's behavior is based on their perception of what reality is, not on reality itself. Factors in the perceiver such as attitudes and motives; factors in the situations such as time, work or social setting; and factors in the target such as proximity, sounds, motion are all factors that can influence our perception.
