Initial Postings: Read and reflect on the assigned readings for the week. Then post what you thought was the most important concept(s), method(s), term(s), and/or any other thing that you felt was worthy of your understanding in each assigned textbook chapter.Your initial post should be based upon the assigned reading for the week, so the textbook should be a source listed in your reference section and cited within the body of the text. Other sources are not required but feel free to use them if they aid in your discussion.
Also, provide a graduate-level response to each of the following questions:
You have been working at Saxet Consulting for the past year and are expected to complete three client reviews per week. You have been very productive and have been completing two extra reviews per week. At a recent team meeting, you expected to receive praise from the President for this extra work; however, your manager took credit for the extra work and received the praise from the President. What has your manager violated and what is your likely reaction?

• Pearson eText —Keeps students engaged in learning on their own time, while
helping them achieve greater conceptual understanding of course material. The
MyLab with Pearson eText provides students with a complete digital learning
experience—all in one place.
• Branching, Decision-Making Simulations—Put your students in the role
of manager as they make a series of decisions based on a realistic business
challenge. The simulations change and branch based on their decisions,
creating various scenario paths. At the end of each simulation, students
receive a grade and a detailed report of the choices they made with the
associated consequences included.
• Writing Space—Better writers make great learners
who perform better in their courses. Designed to help
you develop and assess concept mastery and critical
thinking, the Writing Space offers a single place to
create, track, and grade writing assignments, provide
resources, and exchange meaningful, personalized
feedback with students, quickly and easily. Thanks to
assisted-graded and create-your-own assignments, you decide your level of involvement in evaluating
students’ work. Because of integration with Turnitin®, Writing Space can check students’ work for improper
citation or plagiarism.
• Personal Inventory Assessments—Is a collection of online exercises designed
to promote self-reflection and engagement in students, enhancing their ability to
connect with management concepts. Assessments are assignable by instructors who
can then track students’ completions. Student results include a written explanation
and graphic display that shows how their results compare to the class as a whole,
and can be used to promote classroom discussion.

• Learning Catalytics™—Is an interactive, student response tool that
uses students’ smartphones, tablets, or laptops to engage them in more
sophisticated tasks and thinking. Now included with MyLab with eText,
Learning Catalytics enables you to generate classroom discussion, guide
your lecture, and promote peer-to-peer learning with real-time analytics.
• Dynamic Study Modules—Helps students study effectively on their own by
continuously assessing their activity and performance in real time. Here’s how it
works: students complete a set of questions with a unique answer format that also
asks them to indicate their confidence level. Questions repeat until the student can
answer them all correctly and confidently. Once completed, Dynamic Study Modules
explain the concept using materials from the text. These are available as graded
assignments prior to class, and accessible on smartphones, tablets, and computers.
• Reporting Dashboard—View, analyze, and report learning outcomes
clearly and easily, and get the information you need to keep your students
on track throughout the course with the new Reporting Dashboard.
Available via the MyLab Gradebook and fully mobile-ready, the Reporting
Dashboard presents student performance data at the class, section, and
program levels in an accessible, visual manner.

as accessible as possible to all students. The platform team for our Business
MyLab products is working toward achieving WCAG 2.0 Level AA and Section 508

PREFACE
This book was created as an alternative to the 600- or 700-page comprehensive text in
organizational behavior (OB). It attempts to provide balanced coverage of all the key
elements comprising the discipline of OB in a style that readers will find both informa-
tive and interesting. We’re pleased to say that this text has achieved a wide following in
short courses and executive programs as well as in traditional courses as a companion
volume to experiential, skill development, case, and readings books. It is currently used
at more than 500 colleges and universities in the United States, Canada, Latin America,
Europe, Australia, and Asia. It’s also been translated into Spanish, Portuguese, Japanese,
Chinese, Dutch, Polish, Turkish, Danish, and Bahasa Indonesian.
KEY CHANGES FOR THE FOURTEENTH EDITION
• Increased content coverage was added to include updated research, relevant discus-
sion, and new exhibits on current issues of all aspects of organizational …
