ORGANIZATIONAL BEHAVIOR: A SOUTH-ASIAN PERSPECTIVE, 7TH EDITION

Organizational behavior is the study of
individual behavior and group dynamics in organizational settings. It focuses
on timeless topics like motivation, leadership, teamwork, and communication.
Organizational behavior also encompasses contemporary issues in
organizations. How do we encourage employees to act ethically, to engage in
organizational citizenship behaviors, to go above and beyond the call of duty
to exhibit exceptional performance? How do we restructure organizations in
the face of increasing competition? What is the new psychological contract
between employees and organizations? How have careers changed, and what can
we expect in the future? How do you manage employee behavior in virtual
organizations or teams? What happens when organizations with strong cultures
and a need for constancy face the pressure to become current, competitive,
and agile? Organizational Behavior: A South-Asian Perspective, 7th edition,
engages both classic and emerging issues with a special focus on the South Asian
environment, especially the Indian perspective. Using the knowledge and
insights offered in the study of organizational behavior, we can take
responsible actions to create the kinds of organizations in which we thrive,
grow strong, and experience fulfillment in the spirit of the happy/productive
worker.
