In comparison with previous editions, this edition is focused on teaching students to think like organizational behavior experts by providing them with the essential materials and experiences they need to become effective, expert managers and good employees. In order to do so the following improvements have been made:

• Exercises and debriefings have been modified to accelerate the development of expertise by emphasizing pattern recognition of cues and the action scripts they elicit. 

• Two new chapters have been added — Decoding Human Behavior, chapter 4, and Creativity, chapter 12. 

• Even more emphasis has been placed on cross-cultural issues.

• Substantial revisions have been made in every chapter, adding recent research findings, new information on companies, and, in some chapters, new exercises.
