We very much appreciate the fresh approach to organizational behavior, including innovation, stressing the importance of teams, new ways of working. The book is accessible for our first year students. The practice exercises are very useful, and we intend to use them in workgroups.
It came too late for this semester
Dear Authors,
der SAGE-Pub-Team,
thank you for the inspection copy which arrived some days ago.
First of all: Perfect book.
- the book is colorful and gives you a great overview
- easy to understand, as well for "foreign students" (without Englisch-Native-Speaker): because there are a lot of examples and tables or figures
- the structure of the book is easy to understand and gives a great overview of the different organizational behaviour topics - you are able to read non-linear and start where ever you want
- interdisciplinary: usefull for different professions like Non-Profit-Management
- At the end of a chapter you find perfect Exercises, cases and a lot of Endnotes for further informations
Such a great book,
keep on writing and publishing!

Excellent book, However, it is not for the course and it be adopted for the organizational behavior course that we have.
The text is now written more for undergraduates and business students compared to prior versions that were appropriate for MPA students.
This text is the most logical in progression and most student focused text in the market.
Bravo!
As my students are at a masters level; and the book is aimed at UG level students, I will use this book as a supplement for my lectures and seminars for group activities and discussions.
An easy to read and good 'dip into' book covering a broad range of topics. Provides a good starting point for the students.
This book is able to give a complete notion of what organizational behavior is as well as all of its ramifications and areas of application. It has a very flexible and simple approach, being enhanced by previously prepared exercises for students that are very well constructed.
Finally, I enjoyed the fact that part of its organization is through a list of key terms, which is quite useful to navigate in the book.
I will use this book first time as a recommended text for my lecture on "Managing Organizational Change" at Bilgi University (Laureta International Universities) this year.
I will also use the same book for MA in Organizational Psychology in Psychology Department this year.
I hope this book will make a great contribution to understand and analyze the organizational behavior.
Thank you SAGE and Nahavandi.
