About this title

Synopsis

A consistent theme throughout the 11th edition of Organizations is that effective management of organizational behavior requires an understanding of theory,research and practice. Given this theme,the authors present and interpret organizational behavior theory and research so that students can comprehend the three characteristics common to all organizations-behavior,structure,and processes-as affected by actions of managers. The text is organized and presented in a sequence based on behavior,structure,and process. Each part has been presented as a self-contained unit and can therefore 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.
