Organizational Behavior and Change: Just the Facts

Organization Behavior and Change: Just the Facts provides an approach to studying the design and administration of complex organizations. This book provides a framework for understanding the day-to-day behavior of employees with dynamic organizations. Topics covered include human behavior principles in individual, small group and organizational settings. The influence of job design on human performance will also be examined. The primary focus is on developing effective administrative skills used in improving employee performance. Part I of this book examines individuals. Part II looks at groups, and Part III covers organizations. The contents of this book were designed by Dr. Shuler to teach a masters level course in organizational behavior at a major state university. This book is also designed so that anyone can use it for self-instruction in these areas, since only the facts are presented. This is the third book in a series of “Just the Facts” books by Dr. Shuler.
