Book Description

March 10, 2004 0072976861 978-0072976861 3
In their substantially revised Third Edition, McShane and Von Glinow continue the trailblazing innovations that made previous editions of Organizational Behavior recognized and adopted by the new generation of organizational behavior (OB) instructors. Acclaimed for its readability and presentation of current knowledge, this textbook's philosophy is that OB knowledge is for everyone, not just traditional managers. The new reality is that everyone -- sales representatives, production employees, physicians -- needs OB knowledge to successfully work in and around organizations. Organizational Behavior, 3rd Edition, is unparalleled in its ability to engage students by bringing cutting edge OB concepts closer to reality through the 'theory-practice link' approach. McShane and Von Glinow help readers connect OB theories to emerging workplace realities through hundreds of fascinating real-life stories from across the United States and around the world. McShane/Von Glinow's Organizational Behavior 3rd Edition also continues to be the source of the hottest topics, such as: workaholism, virtual teams, corporate social responsibility, Schwartz's values model, innate drives theory, workplace emotions, executive coaching, guanxi, appreciative inquiry, social identity theory, workplace bullying, workplace justice, and much, much, more.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great for tech managers, July 18, 2007

This review is from: Organizational Behavior with Student CD and OLC/PowerWeb card (Hardcover)
When teaching MBAs and executives, I generally do not use textbooks. But, faced with distance-learning students, I felt a solid text was a must. This an excellent guide into organizational behavior (OB) issues, especially for practicing managers who have technical degrees and no background in OB. McShane and Von Glinow have covered the field comprehensively, in a way that is engaging (even for managers) and gives more than a nod to multinational challenges. When I searched for global OB textbooks, this was by far the best comprehensive book - using it in the classroom, it has not disappointed in any way.
