McShane and Von Glinow 5e are applauded for: Clearness, presentation of current data Strong Global/International perspective Innovative Concept Foundation (without the technical language) Active Learning and Analytical Thinking Support Textbook’s principle-OB knowledge is for all, not just traditional managers. The reality is that everyone: sales representatives, production personnel, medical practitioners — requires OB knowledge to succeed effectively in and around organizations. The authors’ capability to involve students by introducing cutting-edge OB topics while providing relevance to OB principles through the ‘connecting theory with reality’ approach, is the reason OB 5e remains incomparable in its ability to engage students. Numerous captivating real-life narratives gathered from various parts of the world, ‘Connecting Theory with Reality’, remains one of the text’s primary, robust characteristics. The first to present OB cutting-edge topics, OB 5e continues to introduce students to the current and future context of emerging workplace realities: social networks and virtual teams replacing board meetings, data replacing systems, values and self-governance replacing command-and-control management; companies seeking employees with emotional intelligence and staff competencies, not just technical proficiency. Diversity and globalization have evolved into challenges as well as competitive advantages for organizations. Colleagues are not just nearby; they are at the other end of an Internet connection located worldwide, and much, much more.
