Publisher's Synopsis

Kinicki/Fugate, Organizational Behavior, 1e uses a conversational writing style with a visually engaging layout to appeal to todays student. This provides a "chunking" of the content and introduces students to what they are about to learn through a "Major Question/Bigger Picture." To bring the concepts through to application, Kinicki/Fugate 1e employs a problem-solving approach. This is presented through the "Problem-Solving Applications" (30 total boxed items appearing throughout each chapter) that present a business situation. Students work through these scenarios in the "Your Call" feature--a three-step problem solving approach. These are designed to help students apply concepts and strengthen their problem-solving skills. The self-assessments are integrated in the content as well as assignable in Connect through the Interactive Application Self-Assessment tool. These have been hand picked and researched by the author team to ensure quality and research-based assessments.
