NEW TO THE SECOND EDITION

Features In this new edition, we have better integrated the 3-Step Problem-Solving Approach throughout, as well as clarified its relationship to the Organizing Framework for Understanding and Applying OB, (formerly called the Integrative Framework). You will also see new boxed features in every chapter:

Connect In our continuing efforts to help students move from comprehension to application, and to ensure they see the personal relevance of OB, we have added these new application exercises to our already robust Connect offering:

• Implications for Me/Implications for Managers explains in direct terms practical applications of chapter content from the student’s perspective as an employee and as a manager.

• OB in Action illustrates OB concepts or theories in action in the real world, featuring well-known companies and individuals.

• Applying OB offers students “how-to” guidance on applying OB knowledge in professional and other arenas of their lives.

apply the 3-Step Problem-Solving Approach on an actual situation affecting a specific firm (Volkswagen). Because the case examines issues at the individual, group, and organizational levels of analysis at Volkswagen, it can be used in parts or as a comprehensive assignment or exam. All told, this activity presents students with a rich and practical example to apply their OB knowledge and problem-solving skills.

• iSeeIt Videos: Brief, contemporary introductions to key course concepts that often perplex students, this series will enhance your student-centered instruction by offering your students dynamic illustrations that guide them through the basics of core OB concepts such as motivation, leadership, socialization, and more. The idea behind the series is if a student came to your office and asked you to explain one of these topics in a few minutes, how might you explain it? Practical and applicable, consider using these resources before class as an introduction, during class to launch your lecture, or even after class as a summative assessment.

• Problem-Solving Application Case Analyses: All problem-solving application mini-cases and end-of-chapter cases are now assignable as case analyses in Connect. These exercises give students the opportunity to analyze a situation and to apply the 3-Step Problem-Solving Approach. Student knowledge and proficiency are assessed using high-level multiple-choice questions that focus on both the problem-solving approach and on the key topics of each chapter.

• Self-Assessments: Self-awareness is a fundamental aspect of professional and personal development. Our 90 researched-based self-assessments give students frequent opportunities to see how organizational behavioral concepts apply to them personally. New to this edition is structured feedback that explains how students should interpret their scores. This feedback is followed immediately by self-reflection quizzes that assess students’ understanding of the characteristics being measured and the action steps they may want to take for improvement.

• Cumulative Case: This capstone activity provides students the opportunity to

We are pleased to share these exciting updates and new additions to the second edition of Organizational Behavior!

∙ “I want a good job, one that I like and is fulfilling. How do I know which job and company are a good fit for me?”

∙ “I know that this job and company provide good opportunities for me, but what can I do to be sure I actually realize these opportunities?”

∙ “I can’t stand my job, but I need the money. Should I talk to my boss or just quit?”

∙ “I am taking a class with 50 percent of the grade due to teamwork. My team has four members and two of us are doing all the work. I’ve been talking to the team, but the two members still aren’t doing their share. I am at a loss for what to do.”

∙ “How do I negotiate a salary and benefits for my new job, or a raise for the one I have?”

Each of these scenarios presents a problem. We all are faced with problems every day, and our ability to solve problems can set us apart from others in our jobs and careers. In fact, surveys consistently show that problem solving is one of the skills most valued by employers. For this reason, we designed Organizational Behavior, 2e, to help students become more effective problem solvers. Students who are ef- fective problem solvers today become valued leaders tomorrow.

The second edition of Organizational Be- havior relies on three key strategies to help students use OB knowledge to solve problems: ∙ Consistent 3-Step Problem-Solving

Approach. ∙ Applied, practical features. ∙ User-centric design.

3-Step Problem-Solving Approach Given problem solving is one of the skills most sought by employers, we help students develop instead of hone this skill. We teach them to use a 3-Step Problem-Solving Approach— (1) define the problem, (2) identify the causes, and (3) implement a solution. This approach is introduced in Chapter One and used multiple

times in each subsequent chapter. To comple- ment the 3-Step Approach, we also developed the new Organizing Framework for Under- standing and Applying OB. This framework is used in two ways. First, it provides students a means for organizing OB concepts into three categories (inputs, processes, and outcomes) as they learn them. This facilitates student learning and shows how concepts relate to each other. Second, it is an important and com- plementary tool for problem solving. Problems are often defined in terms of outcomes in the Organizing Framework, and the causes are commonly found in the inputs and processes elements. Students use this framework in every chapter to solve problems confronted by real organizations and employees.

We provide many opportunities for students to practice using the 3-Step Problem-Solving Approach. Problem-Solving Application Mini- Cases are inserted throughout each chapter. These provide numerous opportunities for students to apply their OB knowledge and practice their problem solving skills to real companies and people. The longer Problem-Solving Application Case at the end of each chapter presents more complex and current business cases containing one or more problems that illustrate OB concepts in- cluded in a particular chapter. A version of the Organizing Framework is presented in each chapter and is populated with relevant con- cepts from that chapter, which students then use to define and solve problems presented in the various features. This capstone Cumulative Case activity provides students the opportu- nity to apply the 3-Step Problem-Solving Approach on an actual situation affecting a specific firm (Volkswagen).

We carry the 3-Step Problem-Solving Approach into Connect, McGraw-Hill’s market-leading digital platform, and provide students with numerous opportunities to observe how different decisions can lead to different outcomes. We also offer new criti- cal-thinking application exercises tied to the

xii PREFACE

questions. They provide an effective tool to assessing student’s ability to solve problems using OB concepts and theories. SmartBook is another key component. This adaptive and data-driven reading experience gives students ample opportunity to develop mastery of key learning objectives tied to core OB concepts, while also providing instructors real-time snapshots of student comprehension.

User-Centric Approach It is important for us to offer users, whether stu- dents or instructors, a tool that is easy to navi- gate, easy to digest, and exceptionally practical. We therefore have taken great care to create content, craft our writing, and include features that focus on the needs and interests of the user. To that end, Major Questions open the main sections of each chapter and immediately place students in a personal, practical learning mode. These questions introduce key concepts by ask- ing students to consider the practical value of the concepts for them personally.

We also present content in digestible chunks of text, with frequent opportunities to engage with or reflect on the material. The Winning at Work feature opens each chapter with a list of practical tips related to a highly relevant topic for work and/or school, such as negotiating a salary for a new job or a pay raise, or how to manage meetings more effec- tively. Self-Assessments in Connect allow students to evaluate personal characteristics related to OB concepts, as well as to reflect on their own characteristics and behavior. Take- Away Applications ask students to apply the material and concepts immediately after read- ing. What Did I Learn provides students with a review of the chapter’s key concepts, an invi- tation to answer the chapter’s opening Major Questions, and a summary of the Organizing Framework for a given chapter.

Connect Tabs give instructors the founda- tions for creating a Connect course that fits their individual teaching needs. A new Teach- ing Resource Manual offers a playbook for creating and delivering a discussion-based learning environment in which students practice and apply concepts in a more active manner. The extensively revised Test Bank now offers greater opportunity to assess students on OB concepts at a higher level. The updated Test Bank includes essay and scenario-based ques- tions to engage students’ problem-solving skills.

Problem-Solving Application boxes and Problem-Solving Application Cases, giving students additional practice with applying the 3-Step Approach. These activities are a com- bination of case analyses, video cases, and click-and-drag exercises.

Applied, Practical Approach The second edition repeatedly demonstrates the practical value of OB concepts in solving real-world problems in students’ professional and personal lives. New OB in Action boxes illustrate OB concepts or theories in action in the real world, featuring well-known compa- nies. New Applying OB boxes offer students “how-to” guidance on applying their knowl- edge in both their professional and personal lives. Appearing at the end of each chapter are new Implications boxes that explain to stu- dents the practical value of OB concepts—one for their personal use now (Implications for Me) and the other for managers (Implications for Managers).

Legal/Ethical Challenges ask students to choose from several proposed courses of action or invent their own to resolve a business situa- tion that falls into a gray area of ethics at work.

Connect provides a multitude of opportuni- ties for active practice and application of con- cepts learned during class or while completing assigned reading. For example, new to this edition are short problem-solving application mini cases that can be used as essay exam

“Focuses on the practical applications of OB versus only theory.”

Charla Fraley —Columbus State Community College

“The text uses a problem- solving approach framework to demonstrate OB and help students apply OB theories to real-life issues.”

Jennifer Malarski —Metropolitan State University

xiiiPREFACE

Developing Effective Problem Solvers Today, Valued Leaders Tomorrow Organizational Behavior, 2e, explicitly ad- dresses OB implications for students’ jobs and careers, showing how OB provides them with the higher-level soft skills employers seek, such as problem solving, critical thinking, leadership, and decision making. We strongly believe that applying OB theories and con- cepts provides tremendous value to students’ lives today and throughout their careers. The understanding and application of OB enhances student effectiveness at school and work, both today and tomorrow.

“The method used by Kinicki/ Fugate allows students to think about the concepts presented in a way that is relevant to their lives. This allows them to understand how these concepts relate to the ‘real world.’”

Gabriela Flores, University of Texas —El Paso
