What are some of the most effective techniques to being a powerful leader in the professional world? What major themes do you expect to cover when teaching an organizational behavior course?
This brand new text offers a brief approach to the field of OB and prepares business students with skills necessary to be an effective organizational leader, exercising the challenges and decisions every manager makes within a corporation. Three core themes pervade throughout:
- Immediacy — This book is about the current student. Each chapter can be used for organizational pursuits in the present by offering skills and techniques for job interviews, class projects, and academic clubs.
- Self-Knowledge and Self-Development — The difference between good managers and great managers is that great managers are constantly on a self-improvement course. As such, every student can best serve themselves by finding out as much as they can about themselves and people in general. This book and its supporting materials allow for a great deal of self-exploration.
- Actionable Theory — Theory without specific behavioral recommendations is not useful to most people; moreover, practical advice that has no empirical backing is not wise, either. The prescriptive advice in this book is all research based.
