Organizational Behavior: Essential Tenets for a New MillenniumSouth-Western College Pub., 2000 - 410 pages Essential Organizational Behavior uses organizational behavior theory and concepts to explain to the reader their behavior and the behavior of others in an organization. Selected topics are built into frameworks that are useful for explaining, analyzing, and diagnosing organizational processes. Micro and macro perspectives are combined to illustrate that people's behavior is not independent of the organized forms with which they behave.
