Summary:
In their substantially revised Third Edition, McShane and Von Glinow continue the trailblazing innovations that made previous editions of Organizational Behavior recognized and adopted by the new generation of organizational behavior (OB) instructors. Acclaimed for its readability and presentation of current knowledge, this textbook's philosophy is that OB knowledge is for everyone, not just traditional managers. The new reality is that everyone -- sales representatives, production employees, physicians -- needs OB knowledge to successfully work in and around organizations. Organizational Behavior, 3rd Edition, is unparalleled in its ability to engage students by bringing cutting edge OB concepts closer to reality through the 'theory-practice link' approach. McShane and Von Glinow help readers connect OB theories to emerging workplace realities through hundreds of fascinating real-life stories from across the United States and around the world. McShane/Von Glinow's Organizational Behavior 3rd Edition also continues to be the source of the hottest topics, such as: workaholism, virtual teams, corporate social responsibility, Schwartz's values model, innate drives theory, workplace emotions, executive coaching, guanxi, appreciative inquiry, social identity theory, workplace bullying, workplace justice, and much, much, more.

Great for tech managers
Customer Rating:  Score = 5 Score = 5 Score = 5 Score = 5 Score = 5
When teaching MBAs and executives, I generally do not use textbooks. But, faced with distance-learning students, I felt a solid text was a must. This an excellent guide into organizational behavior (OB) issues, especially for practicing managers who have technical degrees and no background in OB. McShane and Von Glinow have covered the field comprehensively, in a way that is engaging (even for managers) and gives more than a nod to multinational challenges. When I searched for global OB textbooks, this was by far the best comprehensive book - using it in the classroom, it has not disappointed in any way.

Excellent Text
Customer Rating:  Score = 4 Score = 4 Score = 4 Score = 4 Score = 4
A thorough textbook covering breadth and depth of organizational behavior. Solid research methodology, pertinent real-world application examples, interesting, applicable case studies, excellent student materials.

A new edition is due within the next year.

I would like to know the organization behavior theory that will be work on the actual event in the firm.

No Chapter on Offshoring...
Customer Rating:  Score = 2 Score = 2 Score = 2 Score = 2 Score = 2
To be fair, though, the book does have chapters on office politics.
In this book, Wen Ho Lee is innocent, and teams are the way to do things. This is a textbook for the masses who would be employees and not necessarily for persons who would be managers. It's already obsolete from the standpoints of absence-of-sense-in-corporate-governance and from the offshoring-all-the-jobs-not-nailed-down. Ingenuity is given short shrift and any idea-incubation process is turned into a team exercise (giving Edison as an example of teamwork - let's ask Tesla what HE thought). Missing: any chapter on having some semblance of cerebral cortex with regard to example-setting. Any such chapter could star object-lesson Jack Welch and the apparent gauge he must've been smoking to marry a corporate lawyer and then cheat on her (speaking volumes to his management tactics - which took no additional conscience - hollowing out the company, running up the stock price and then getting out before it imploded - however, with plenty to spend on alimony).
By the end of the course, either you'll be a good Stepford worker or you'll be a master at DiversitySpeak and will have the management job of your dreams. IN BANGALORE.

One star for the pictures, one star for the attractive cover. (Unfortunately, the tincture of ipecac was missing in my shrink-wrapped copy)
