À propos de la quatrième de couverture

Organisational Behaviour: Individuals, Groups and the Organisation

Ian Brooks

‘One of the great strengths of this text, in my view, is that in every single chapter I found something new or different. . . . Another strong point of this book, which ran through every chapter, was the author’s ability to make sense of theories in relation to current practice.’

Linda Horner, Coventry University
