Abstract
Welcome to the seventeenth edition of Organizational Behavior! Long considered the standard for all organizational behavior textbooks, this edition continues its tradition of making current, relevant topics come alive for students. While maintaining its hallmark features-engaging writing style, cutting-edge content, and intuitive pedagogy-this edition has been significantly updated to reflect the most recent research and current business events within the field of organizational behavior worldwide. The seventeenth edition is one of the most contemporary revisions of Organizational Behavior we’ve undertaken, and while we’ve preserved the core relevant material, we’re confident that this edition reflects the most important issues facing organizations, managers, and employees today with a balanced, discerning approach.
