The only text in management and organizational behavior to focus on public organizations, nonprofit organizations, and school systemsthis book fosters competency in critical management and leadership skills including communication, motivation, teamwork, group dynamics, and decision making. Cases, self-assessment exercises, simulations, and evaluative instruments provide students the opportunity to experience the applied side of theories and to learn both cognitively and experientially. The Third Edition covers recent developments in the field including the emergence of 'positive organizational behavior.' New to the Third Edition - Includes substantial new coverage of leadership and change, offering insights from new research on positive organizational change, appreciative inquiry, and large-systems change - Provides new material on many contemporary topics such as creativity and design thinking, performance management and evidence-based management, communications technologies, and conflict resolution - Extends the discussions on diversity to include both cross-cultural diversity and generational diversity issues. "Excellent in scope, approach and appeal." -- Nevin Smith 20111102 "This book is so practical and easy to understand. I have used this book for 4 years. I have changed books in other courses, but this one has worked so well I have not changed." -- Anne Swafford 20111102 "Based on over 34 years in the public sector, I find the text has presented the challenges in dealing with human behavior in a very valid and useful manner." -- Larry Bustetter 20111102 "The single most impressive aspect of this book is its focus on organizational behavior within the public and nonprofit sectors. Most organizational textbooks focus on the private for profit sector with an occasional reference to the public sector. This textbook makes the subject more relevant to the public administration or nonprofit management student." -- John J. Donohue 20111102 "I like the book's action science approach to the topic. I teach experientially. I link this to organization learning models. So this book is a perfect format for me." -- Nancy Adams 20111102
