Organizational Behaviour 6th Edition by Jason Colquitt 9781265685263 *116e [ZZ]

Improving Performance And Commitment In The Workplace. Paperback, McGraw Hill TAGS: ADMN3236

The 6^th Canadian edition of Organizational Behaviour: Improving Performance and Commitment in the Workplace continues to strike the perfect balance between academic rigor and a student focused approach. Current and engaging examples help students relate to the content, using scenes from popular films and television series to demonstrate topics in action. In addition, this updated edition describes cross-cultural differences with an emphasis on cultural diversity in the workplace.

Each chapter speaks to the learning objectives of Organizational Behaviour (OB) from a conversational and manager’s lens, focusing on the performance, retention, commitment, and the overarching organizational impact of each topic. As a result, this product is known for answering the ‘so what’ of OB in a way that is both academically sound and engaging for students. The innovative pedagogy, combined with an evidence-based approach, ensures research and accuracy are at the forefront of each chapter.

Patricia Theatre, located in British Columbia, is featured on our cover both as an ode to the OB on Screen features throughout the text and as an example of an organization making reconciliation efforts with the local Indigenous community—in this case, the Tla’amin Nation. Historically, the theatre was segregated, with Indigenous people only allowed to sit in a small balcony accessible by a separate door: the fire escape. The theatre is now following the lead of the Tla’amin Nation, focusing on an improved relationship and working together on features and programs, like the 3 Ears Indigenous Films Festival.
