Organisational Behaviour: Core Concepts and Applications, Fourth Australasian edition, is the ideal resource for a one–semester Organisational Behaviour course. Fourteen concise, relevant and tightly focused chapters, presented in a highly visual manner, are designed to engage rather than overwhelm students.
Numerous case studies and real–world examples throughout the text examine how organisations in the Australian, New Zealand and Asian region are responding to contemporary business issues such as:
sustainable business practices and ethical considerations
the gender pay gap
employee stress and work life balance
workforce flexibility and casualisation
gen Y and the ageing workforce
skills shortages
globalisation
telecommuting
outsourcing
diversity in the workplace and managing cross–cultural teams
the 24/7 nature of contemporary communication technology, including social media.
Complemented by the latest research in the field, this text provides a thorough analysis of contemporary organisational behaviour.
