Organizational Behavior helps everyone make sense of OB and provides the conceptual tools to work more effectively in the workplace. It emphasizes emerging OB knowledge with globally focused, real-world examples and evidence-based literature. This book presents the reality that organizational behavior is not just for managers; it is relevant and valuable to anyone who works in and around organizations. The authors explain how design thinking and agile methodologies are improving creativity and decision making in organizations; how self-concept is a significant determinant of individual behavior, team cohesion, and leadership; how employees increasingly communicate and coordinate through emerging digital channels; how emotions influence employee motivation, attitudes, and decisions; and how global mindset has become an important employee attribute in this increasingly diverse and inclusive interconnected world.
