| Summary |
"The study of Organizational Behavior is dedicated to illuminating both the nature of organizations and the roles we play in them. This book is an introduction to both sides of this important discipline: micro (motivation, perception, communication, group dynamics, and leadership) and macro (organizational structure, culture, environment, and change). It will familiarize students with all the terms and concepts they need to understand OB and its application in modern organizations. Teachers will find it flexible and thorough, an ideal primer for use with cases, readings, experiential exercises, or simulations."--BOOK JACKET |
