Synopsis

For undergraduate and graduate courses in Organizational Behavior.

Help Students Better Understand Their Behavioral and Interpersonal Skills

Long considered the standard for all organizational behavior textbooks, Organizational Behavior provides the research you want, in the language your students understand. This text continues its tradition of making current, relevant research come alive for readers.

The Seventeenth Edition has been thoroughly updated to reflect the most recent research and business events within the field of organizational behavior worldwide, while maintaining its hallmark features—clear writing style, cutting-edge content, and intuitive pedagogy. There’s a reason why Robbins’s textbooks have educated millions of students and have been translated into twenty languages—and it’s because of a commitment that provides the kind of engaging, cutting-edge material that helps students understand and connect with organizational behavior.

MyLab Management™ not included. Students, if MyLab Management is a recommended/mandatory component of the course, please ask your instructor for the correct ISBN and course ID. MyLab Management should only be purchased when required by an instructor. Instructors, contact your Pearson representative for more information.

MyLab Management is an online homework, tutorial, and assessment program designed to work with this text to personalize learning and improve results. With a wide range of interactive, engaging, and assignable activities, students are encouraged to actively learn and retain tough course concepts.
