This book is an easy-to-understand and insightful study of organisational behaviour principles, both theoretical and applied. It discusses work and family conflicts, total equality management, revolutionising the competitive thrust of international business, and the Myers-Briggs type Indicator - a popular personality profile. New to this Second Edition are three new features in every chapter: Applying OB Research - shows students how organisational behaviour research is actually conducted and used; Applying OB Across Cultures - discusses how knowledge of organisational behaviour helps managers in a cross-cultural or global context; and Applying OB in the News - looks at current applications, allowing students to read, then experience a real management situation.
