Organizational Behavior: Integrated Models and Applications directly addresses many of the current trends in the market and approaches OB from a non-traditional perspective. Rather than trying to cover the broad spectrum of OB topics found in a survey text, a carefully selected list of topics is dealt with in greater detail. Particular emphasis is placed on application of these topics in real world settings. This text has been specifically designed for use in an Organizational Behavior course in which the instructor makes a conscious choice to place major emphasis on the four higher levels of learning in Bloom's taxonomy.
