Features

For one-semester undergraduate and graduate level courses in Organizational Behavior.

This best selling brief alternative for the OB course covers all the key concepts needed to understand, predict, and respond to the behavior of people in real world organizations, including cutting-edge topics and streamlined pedagogy to allow maximum flexibility in designing and shaping your course.

This tenth edition has been updated to include new research, examples, and topics, including, but not limited to, sections on attitudes, global implications, commitment and work engagement, virtual teams, and positive organizational culture. Chapters have been updated with new sections to help students focus on key concepts and to explain the implications of emerging technologies.

Brevity: Unlike longer textbooks of 600 to 700 pages, this 325-350 page text provides students with the basic core of OB knowledge, allowing them to gain a solid understanding of the subject in a short course. Instructors will find this format allows them greater flexibility in designing their courses, as well.

Balanced Topic Coverage
: Traditional topics such as personality, motivation, and leadership are meshed with cutting-edge issues such as emotions, trust, and negotiation, providing students with a broad base of information.

Reader Friendly Writing Style:
Steve Robbins’ writing style is conversational and engaging, providing students with stories and examples that are interesting, clear, and understandable.

Integration of Globalization, Diversity, & Ethics
: In order to understand how these topics relate to the ever-changing global market, the author has integrated discussions of these issues into every chapter, reinforcing that each comes in to play in every aspect of OB.

Comprehensive Supplement Package:
Faculty will benefit from the included Instructor’s Manual, Test Bank, Companion Website, and Power Point Slides for every chapter. Students will gain insight and understanding into their personalities, skills, and abilities using the Self Assessment Library tool. They can also study new material with an online study guide with multiple-choice, true/false, and short-answer questions available on the Companion Website.

NEW! Additional Content: Both new chapters and new sections have been added throughout the tenth edition.
  • Attitudes--considers the latest research on work attitudes and engagement in order to help managers determine if an employee is performing at their highest level and whether or not they will stay with the firm.
  • Global Implications--added to each chapter, this section keeps students informed on how OB fits into the global market.
  • New material also added on: evidence-based management, creating a positive work environment, ethics and decision making, intrinsic motivation, alternative work arrangements, emotional intelligence, virtual teams, diversity effects on team performance, electronic communication (including blogs and networking software), authentic and ethical leadership, organizational change and stress, virtual organization, and positive organizational culture.

NEW! Keep in Mind:
These bulleted lists at the end of IMPLICATIONS FOR MANAGERS summarize three of the most important concepts for students to remember and study.
