Buchanan and Huczynski bring their well-known and successful brand of
critical thinking, social science underpinning, and visual appraisal to bear in this
comprehensive introduction to organizational behaviour.
Now in its 7th edition, this highly successful textbook has been substantially
updated to include the latest research, most relevant contemporary issues and up-to-date
practical examples.
Organizational Behaviour involves the reader directly, placing you in the
position of a decision-making and problem-solving manager, inviting you to see the reality
behind an organizational image, and encouraging you to make comparisons with well-known
scenes in film and literature.
