OB: The Essentials, 1st edition

Leading the way in OB

OB: The Essentials is an applied and focused text that will help your students to quickly grasp the essential elements of OB. In an engaging 13 chapter format, this book retains the fluid writing style, academic rigour and extensive use of examples that are trademark features of the Robbins texts. While there are less chapters, the book continues to provide cutting-edge content that is often missing in other OB books - this is not merely a subset of material from Robbin's Organisational Behaviour text; it was written from the ground up to present all the essential content in a shorter format.

This text will have broad appeal; particularly to visual learners who will appreciate the lively design and extensive use of examples and photographs to aid comprehension and retention of concepts. New co-author Dr Michael Jones of the University of Wollongong brings his avid enthusiasm for student education as well as a solid research background in motivation, commitment and business operations to the new text. Reviewers and users of the Robbins texts regularly report that they are 'conversational', 'interesting', 'student-friendly' and 'very clear and understandable'.
