Product Description

Organizational Behavior, Seventh Edition continues in its tradition of being up-to-date, relevant and user-driven. Kreitner and Kinicki’s approach to organizational behavior is based on the authors’ belief that reading a comprehensive textbook is hard work, but that the process should be interesting (and sometimes fun). Thus, they consistently attempt to find a way to make complex ideas understandable through explanations, contemporary examples, and/or learning exercises. With every edition, the authors make every effort to respond to user feedback and ensure the text covers the very latest OB research and practices. The seventh edition of Organizational Behavior again uses the familiar wolf image on its cover. This remains a central theme because Kreitner and Kinicki see wolves as an instructive and inspiring metaphor for modern Organizational Behavior. Wolves are dedicated team players, great communicators, and adaptable. These are key success attributes in today’s workplace. Organizational Behavior uses these fundamentals to explore and explain the forces behind conventional corporate behavior and organizational theory.

A Wealth of Information
This book is FULL of incredible information for those wanting an introduction to OB or a more in-depth look. While it is a bit weighty (and, like most text books, expensive!) I'm extremely pleased with the breadth and depth of information it covers in OB in the context of business, global organization, and best-practices. A GREAT text for OB classes!

Not the greatest
I did receive the book in a timely manner but I paid for a new book and it looks like I received a used book. It didn't have any highlights in it or torn pages but it just didn't seem like a new book. I didn't have time to complain or send it back because my class was starting and it was in decent condition anyway but I thought if it was used by someone before me then I shouldn't have paid full price.
