Description
Appropriate for introductory courses in Organizational Behaviour. Organizational Behaviour, Seventh Edition, is a research-based text that provides a balanced approach of theory and applications. This highly readable text combines comprehensive coverage with engaging features. Clearly presented theory is supported by real-world cases, discussion questions, and experiential exercises. While Canadian applications and examples are used, Johns and Saks make extensive use of international illustrations as well. Striking a balance between research and theory on the one hand, and practice and application on the other hand, the seventh edition of Organizational Behaviour includes the most recent research and theory in the field (e.g., employee engagement in Chapter 5; the GLOBE project in Chapters 4 and 9; Research Focus feature) as well as many examples of the application and practice of organizational behaviour throughout the text and in the chapter-opening vignettes, the Applied Focus feature, and the You Be the Manager feature.
