The Handbook of Organizational Performance is an invaluable resource for students, early career practitioners, and seasoned experts in OBM alike. It strikes an impeccable balance between breadth and depth in comprehensively examining the field. This text fills critical gaps by addressing topics often overlooked in existing literature and offers a unique opportunity to learn directly from a distinguished group of subject matter experts. As a professor and practitioner, I unequivocally endorse this book as the preeminent choice for guiding early-career professionals in honing their competencies.

Handbook of Organizational Performance: Foundations and Advances is an excellent resource for professors, practitioners, and students in the field of Organizational Behavior Management (OBM). I have used several of the chapters as part of my graduate level performance management class and it has greatly benefited students with their knowledge, understanding and application of both the basic and more advanced topics within the discipline. This handbook will serve as valuable text for anyone interested in learning more about the field of OBM.

I was eager to delve into this thoughtfully curated text edited by Drs. Doug Johnson and Carl Johnson. The book provides the reader with a history of OBM, including development and challenges, highlighting the importance of both systems analysis and performance management. This text is a 'must use' for instructors teaching Organizational Behavior Management (OBM) and is appropriate at the undergraduate and graduate level. The chapters are authored by faculty and experts, including new and emerging researchers, practitioners, and consultants. I'm excited to incorporate this book into a future course and to see this book support student research.
