`The Sage Handbook of Organizational Behaviour is a fine addition to
past works of reference in the field, edited by two prominent scholars
who are internationally known. Its approach is both critical and
original in many incisive ways, aspiring to a cutting-edge coverage of
the core and periphery of OB. Many of the chapter authors stick their
necks out and avoid the more obvious, conventional expositions of
their topic. It covers a wide range of topics of potential use to both
undergraduate and postgraduate students of the subject, as well as
academics, researchers and practitioners. It will be of particular
interest to those on MBA and DBA courses. It can be strongly
recommended as an essential faculty library purchase, as well as a
useful tool for individuals interested in having such a guide to the
subject at hand′ - Professor Malcolm Warner, Emeritus Fellow,
Wolfson College and Judge Business School, University of Cambridge
`This important new Handbook brings together for the first time a
collection of major contributions on macro-organizational behaviour.
This area of study is concerned with the ways in which the people who
inhabit organizations make sense of their situations, contributing to
the distinctive character of those organizations through their actions
and struggles. The conventional literature, artificially divided
between micro organizational behaviour and organization theory, has
under-explored this obvious conjunction between people and
organizations. Stewart Clegg and Cary Cooper perform a great service
in helping to make good the deficiency′ - John Child, Professor of
Commerce, Birmingham Business School `Thorough and comprehensive.
Thoughtful critique and new insights′ - Chris Argyris, James B.
Conant Professor, Emeritus, Harvard University In this second volume
of The SAGE Handbook of Organizational Behavior, the focus is on
macro-organizational behavior, revealing ways in which the person and
group affect the organization. Chapters are written by eminent and
upcoming scholars in the field, each presenting on the major issues in
organizational behavior as seen with a macro-lens. The Handbook is
divided into three parts, the first introducing and framing the field;
the second part considering the various organizational processes
involved, including learning, teamwork, identity and power, among
others, while finally Part Three introduces organizing on a
macro-scale, covering topics such as organizational change, design
governance and globalization. The SAGE Handbook of Organizational
Behavior: Macro Approaches is an essential resource for researchers
and students across management and organization studies.
