Organisational Behaviour - Managing People And Organisations (Paperback, South African Edition)

This first South African edition of Organisational Behaviour: Managing People and Organisations aims to make students more successful in their life and career by helping them understand themselves, understand organisations, and understand the role of organisational behaviour in their personal career success.

It enables students to develop sound knowledge of individual and group behaviour in organisations and to appreciate how the entire organisational system operates. This will enhance their understanding of how to apply the organisational behavioural concepts to a range of different problems or situations. The text gives students a complete understanding of the modern context of organisational behaviour, including ethics, diversity, competitive advantage, technology and the global context.

This edition prepares South African students for the realities of the country’s business environment by engaging with familiar private- and public-sector organisations and pertinent local issues. A global business perspective is balanced with an African one, which highlights the importance of workforce diversity. This edition also explores the South African labour force and legislative environment, and how these shape organisational behaviour and influence management decisions.
