Designed principally for instructors who supplement their instruction, FUNDAMENTALS OF ORGANIZATIONAL BEHAVIOR is also ideal for short courses, executive education programs, and unique courses that survey organizational behavior issues or combine them with those of organizational theory, strategy, marketing, human resources, or management.
