Description
This revision of a leading text includes many new topics, models and concepts from contemporary organizational behaviour literature and actual practice. The readable style and pedagogy of past editions are maintained, and the inclusion of many new real-company examples enlivens the presentation. Moderate vocabulary level, manageable sentence length and the writing style present a complex field in understandable language. A significantly streamlined chapter structure accents the issues of greatest importance in organizations today: motivation, leadership, interpersonal behaviour, groups and teams, and the nature of change and its effects.
