This work presents a managerial approach to organizational behaviour. It is concerned with interactions among the structure and operation of organizations, the process of management and the behaviour of people at work. The book aims to: relate the study of organizational behaviour to that of management; provide an integrated view embracing both theory and practice; point out applications of behavioural science within work organizations and implications for management action; indicate ways in which organizational performance may be improved through the better use of human resources. The book is intended to appeal to students at undergraduate, graduate or post-experience level in business or management, or on related professional courses. It should also be of interest to those aspiring to a managerial position, and practising managers and supervisors who wish to expand their knowledge of the subject area.
