This criterion emphasizes how vital it is to understand Organizational Behavior (OB). But what exactly does this term encompass?
At its core, Organizational Behavior is an interdisciplinary field that explores the interactions among employees and the processes within an organization, all aimed at cultivating a harmonious and efficient work environment. It examines individual behavior within a company, the dynamics of team collaboration, and the interconnected effects of these elements. Moreover, OB takes into account various cultural dimensions, including gender, ethnicity, and the social dynamics inherent in the workplace. For this reason, understanding the intricacies of organizational behavior becomes important, and the second edition of Organizational Behavior Essentials You Always Wanted to Know is here to supplement your understanding of the topic.
