Wilson, F. M. (2017). Organizational behaviour and gender. Routledge.
Organizational Behaviour and Gender provides an alternative to the gender silence of the standard OB textbooks. This Second Edition updates and expands the text's coverage and employs the most recent research findings to portray the world of work in a realistic manner. Organizational Behaviour and Gender is a comprehensive text. The text examines some of the assumptions that have been made about women at work - for example that women's 'difference' is rooted in biology and that women and men have contrasting (and even polar opposite) skills and attitudes. The text considers the key topics in OB (such as selection, assessment,leadership and motivation) to test such assumptions. The book describes the reality of working life for women. It examines issues of low pay, part-time working, family responsibilities, home working and horizontal and vertical job segregation. It asks whether inequality of opportunity comes about because of actual gender differences or from prejudicial expectations and thinking. The last chapter is about sex and sexuality in organizations. Sexual behaviour in organizations is pervasive but is rarely discussed in OB textbooks. This chapter describes the masculine and heterosexual business environment and examines the issues of work romances and sexual harassment. The text provides numerous learning aids (including discussion topics and chapter questions) to assist both the lecturer and the student.
Our goal with this 13th Edition is to keep this first mainline organizational behavior text uptodate with the latest and relevant theory building, basic and applied research, and the best practice applications. We give special recognition of this scientific foundation by our subtitle An Evidence Based Approach. Is emphasized in the introductory chapter, the time has come to help narrow the theory/research—effective application/practice gap. This has been the mission from the beginning of this text.
This enlightening, introductory textbook will help you to understand the complexities of organizational life, by encouraging you to look with a critical eye at modern business practices and to engage with what you see. The fourth edition of Organizational Behaviour and Work takes the reader through from critical perspectives on classic organizational behaviour topics to the core of the critical approaches, including power, resistance, and alternative forms of organization. The book also includes enhanced pedagogy, ensuring that the text is highly accessible, assuming no knowledge on the part of the reader. The range of themes and topics explored provides a rich picture of the realities of organizational life, and of the varied contributions that make up the study of organizational behaviour. This book is accompanied by an Online Resource Centre that includes: For students: Glossary Web links Critical thinking exercises For lecturers: PowerPoint slides Questions for research and discussion Additional case studies Group exercises
