This research has been proceeded to find out if there is any difference in the effect of employees'' behavioral types (steady relater, interacting socializer, cautious thinker, dominant director) on the organizational effectiveness, and if there is any difference in the effect of employees'' behavioral types on the organizational effectiveness according to one''s department, position, sex, and school background, on the basis of People Smart program. The questionnaires were used for personal behavioral types and organizational effectiveness elements (professionalism, job satisfaction, organizational commitment, organizational contribution). The collected materials were used for verifying the assumptions through ANOVA and post hoc test Scheffe on SPSS. The results of the research on the correlation of each member''s behavioral type, organizational effectiveness, and each member''s personal background would be useful material for HRD & HRM. And if the results would be adapted to recruiting, assigning, placing, and managing employees, organizations could achieve higher productivity than before and employees could get self-actualization at the same time. The followings are the comprehensive conclusions of this study. They are arranged by behavioral types respectively. First, cautious thinkers represents higher organizational effectiveness than the other types. They represent relatively high organizational contribution without any personal background being involved. And they show very high professionalism in the departments of production, engineering, and information technology. Judgingly, it is due to their characteristics which have discovering, accuracy-pursued, systematical, analytical and cautious propensity. Thinkers'' task-oriented tendency and strong self-satisfaction desire represent very high organizational contribution in the part of ordinary employees, female, and college and university background. And they also represent high organizational commitment in the part of sales and marketing department, and high school background. Second, steady relaters represent a little high organizational effectiveness. Especially relaters represent high professionalism and job satisfaction in female. Judgingly, it stems from the harmony of relaters'' behavioral characteristics and female''s ones. And relaters represent high organizational commitment at sales and marketing department. It is thought by the researcher that this phenomenon is due to relaters'' steadiness, supportiveness, and friendly, people-oriented, stability-oriented characteristics. Third, interacting socializers represents high professionalism at the sales and marketing departments and graduate school background. It is thought by the researcher that this phenomenon is due to socializers'' people-oriented, extrovert, interacting, and dynamic tendency and their excellent persuading ability. Fourth, dominant directors show high organizational commitment in the deputy department chief position and graduate school background. Judgingly, directors'' task-oriented, goal-oriented, being motivated by achievement characteristics function in harmony with their position and school background. It is generally thought that directors'' task-oriented, goal-oriented, workaholic tendency would create very high organizational effectiveness. But directors show lower organizational effectiveness in this research than expected. Fifth, this study proved that when each member''s behavioral characteristics go with his personal backgrounds such as working department, position, sex, and school background, organizational effectiveness would be rise. This conclusion strongly supports the People Smart behavioral types theory. Consequently, when the representatives working in HR fields and organization managers adapt the result of this research or People Smart behavioral types theory to their work, they''ll be able to take great advantages of it.
