Organizational Behavior by Neubert and Dyck presents two approaches to organizational behavior, fostering students' critical thinking. The conventional/traditional approach possesses solid theory while an emerging sustainable approach builds upon the foundation of the conventional approach. The conventional approach emphasizes performance, predictability, and what profits a smaller set of stakeholders in the present time, whereas a sustainable broadens the approach by focusing on collaboration, creativity, and the consequences for a broad set of stakeholders into the foreseeable future. Throughout the text, the authors present and explore how these two approaches are linked to each other and Organizational Behavior. By exploring the reasoning for sustainable Organizational Behavior practices, students' become more aware of and learn how values and ethics influence decisions about Organizational Behavior practices. This text reflects current trends in both popular media and scholarly literature and contains features that will give students an engaging and positive classroom experience. Road Maps begin each chapter, providing the same information as learning goals, but in a form that students have found to be more useful. Inspiring Practitioner Examples include the best of proven OB practices as well as cutting edge examples from a diversity of organizational leaders.
