رفتار سازمانی

by Ricky W. Griffin, سیدمهدی الوانی (Translator), غلامرضا معمارزاده (Translator)

Organizational Behavior places core concepts of human behavior and industrial psychology in a real-world context. The text's applied approach and succinct coverage of topical issues helps prepare students to meet practical, day-to-day challenges. Strong end-of-chapter exercises, activities, plus an optional case and exercise book make this flexible text suitable for students at the undergraduate level. Likewise, the authors' emphasis on the latest organizational behavior research continues to attract graduate students.

In keeping with the emphasis on current content, the Seventh Edition includes an ongoing case featuring Enron that encourages students to consider how all OB topics tie together and practice applying key concepts by systematically working through the case and answering the accompanying questions. All boxes have been replaced or significantly updated to reflect recent changes in business—including Talking Technology, Mastering Change, The Business of Ethics, Working with Diversity, and World View features. Call-out quotes from managers appear at appropriate points throughout the text to highlight relevant, real-world examples. In addition, each chapter includes one cartoon with a content-based caption that highlights an interesting, and often humorous, aspect of organizational behavior.

New! Building Managerial Skills exercises require students to consider different workplace situations from a manager's standpoint and determine a suitable course of action for each scenario. New! OB Online exercises, previously known as Developing OB Internet Skills, ask students to gather information from the Web and use it to answer critical-thinking questions. New! Self-Assessment exercises, previously known as Building OB Skills, give students the opportunity to complete brief self-assessment and diagnostic activities. Experiencing Organizational Behavior exercises reinforce the real-world application of chapter concepts and ask students to work through the activities together.

Very good

Well it seemed like a load of crap to me. All of the useful info in this book could have been condensed to 150 pages or less.

Easy to read. Very factual. A bit boring.

در رشته ام بی ای خوندیم ش که مقدمات خوب و جامعی داشت

[December]

Well, I finally finished this book. We are barely in Chapter 4 in the class, yet the first midterm was from Chapter 1 through 8, and we have to finish the book by the 29th of this month to turn in an assignment and a case study. Truly I don't like how this class is organized. I NEED TO STUDY FOR MIDTERMS OF MY GRADUATE COURSES! Not this stupid prerequisite yet I must read all to get a good grade. Probably anyone else but me would be better organized but oh well. Now to do the discussion questions! ...
