Organisational Behaviour Summary

Organisational Behaviour by Marc Buelens

Organisational Behaviour, 3e continues to offer a comprehensive introduction to the theories of Organisational Behaviour within a contemporary European context. The revised part structure now accommodates new chapters that successfully integrate the latest research and theoretical developments in the field of OB.

Key features include:

  • New Structure: Heavily revised in order to reflect teaching needs; the 3rd edition now adopts a more traditional 4-part structure:
    1) Foundations of organisational behaviour
    2) Individual processes
    3) Group and social processes
    4) Organisational processes
  • New and Contemporary Content Coverage: A greater integration of the sociological approach to OB is supported further by 2 new chapters on structure and design. Contemporary new material brings the text up-to-date with coverage of change and innovation, and sustainable and ethical organisations.
  • Theoretical Underpinning: The text now contains more explicit references to both traditional and recent theoretical developments to compliment the strong illustrative nature of the text.
  • New Case Studies: New cases and more illustrative examples, such as an International OB feature, have been integrated throughout the text.
  • European Focus: The authors have placed greater emphasis on introducing European theories and references that make this textbook the most contemporary and European of its kind.
