Managing for the Future: Organizational Behavior & Processes : Module 13

by Deborah G. Ancona

"If you teach Organizational Behavior, it's time to "think outside the box." Time to move on to a course that injects the dynamics of today's changing work environment into your classroom. Time for a course that's organized around the "new" organization. Managing for the Organizational Behavior & Processes --- the MIT O.B. course developed by Ancona, Kochan, Scully, Van Maanen, and Westney --- is that new direction. It's the only approach that... * presents exciting, relevant material in the form of 13 flexible, ready-to-teach modules that can be used as a set for a complete, fully developed course, or individually to complement whatever text or teaching materials you are currently using * truly maps out the "new" a networked, flat, flexible entity made up of a diverse workforce in a global environment * lets students experience organizational behavior concepts directly from a variety of teaching media, including cases, team work, current readings from the popular and academic press, vodeotapes, and creative activities and projects * goes beyond theories and models to help students learn more about themselves and to develop the skills needed to meet the challenges of the organization of the future. This course is proven. Several years of classroom use by its MIT authors, rave reviews by students (even standing ovations) and effusive testimonials from professors are proof of its place in the academic arena. See for yourself how "thinking outside the box" can make a positive impact in your classroom. Think Outside the Box...Inside Today's Organization." (from back cover)
