Canadian Organizational Behaviour Book

Canadian Organizational Behaviour, Sixth Edition addresses the current and emerging workplace realities: where virtual teams are replacing face-to-face meetings, knowledge is replacing infrastructure, and companies are looking for employees with emotional intelligence, not just technical smarts. Globalization means that co-workers aren't down the hall, they're at the other end of an Internet connection located on the other side of the planet. This new edition explains how emotions guide employee motivation, attitudes, and decisions; how values have become the new resource to shape workplace behaviour; how a person's social identity relates to team dynamics, stereotyping, and organizational culture; and how appreciative inquiry has become one of the most important strategies in organizational change. This book also presents the new reality that organizational behaviour is not just for managers; it is relevant and useful to anyone who works in and around organizations. The first and only indigenous OB text on the market, Canadian Organizational Behaviour, Sixth Edition, is written by a Canadian for Canadians. Incorporating feedback from over 100 instructors over the past few editions, as well as cases and exercises gathered from across Canada and the world, there is no more Canadian-centered and global-focused text available.Read More
