Organizational Behavior is a multidimensional product to allow for student development in knowledge, analysis, synthesis and personal development with pedagogical features designed to bring Organizational Behavior to life. This product reframes the content of organizational behavior to reflect the inherent interdependence of factors that explain human behavior. Traditional OB topics are introduced as part of an integrated framework for answering practically-relevant questions about why people behave as they do and how to effectively self manage and influence others.

Aiming to show that OB knowledge is useful for everyone - sales representatives, production employees, and physicians, this book deals with OB concepts through a 'theory-practice link' approach. It helps readers connect OB theories to workplace realities through many real-life stories from across the United States and around the world.
