Description

This work examines the major topics of the field of organizational behaviour. The authors attempt to represent relevant theories and research but integrate them into the logic of the book. Whenever possible and useful, research and theory are translated into implications and actual techniques for managing behaviour in the work-setting. Readers are provided with numerous managerial suggestions and ideas for importing organizational efficiency and effectiveness. Each chapter contains everyday examples, current inserts on events and applications in the real world. Summaries, key concepts, study questions and cases are presented at the end of every chapter. Each chapter acknowledges international applications and problems. The book is supported with an instructor's manual containing complete test-book, study-question and case-question answers; and classroom exercises and transparency masters.
