Description
This introduction to the field of organizational behaviour condenses the essential topics into a tightly focused presentation. Its concise format makes it a viable alternative to a core textbook, and an ideal vehicle to be combined with cases, readings, and experimental materials. The entire text has been updated. New examples have been added and the referencing of research findings has been expanded There are two new chapters in this edition. Motivation: From Concepts to Applications provides practical applications of motivation concepts introduced in Chapter 4. A new chapter on work teams has also been added. The two chapters on organizational structure and design from the previous edition have been condensed into a single chapter and completely rewritten. The chapter on individual decision making has been rewritten to emphasise the behavioural aspects of decision making. The discussion of group decision making has been moved from the chapter on communication to the chapter on group behaviour.
