A consistent theme throughout the eleventh edition of Organizations is that effective management of organizational behaviour needs an understanding of theory, research and practice. Given this theme, the authors present and interpret organizational behaviour theory and research so that students can comprehend the three characteristics common to all organizations - behaviour, structure and processes - as affected by actions of managers. The text is organized and presented in a sequence based on these three characteristics, with each part a self-contained unit so that the parts can be presented in whatever sequence the instructor prefers. The text is easily adaptable to these individual preferences. This edition emphasizes that the most successful managers in the global economy will be those who can anticipate, adapt and manage change.
