A New Book by Prof Opatha: Organizational Behaviour: the human side of work

Senior Professor HHDNP Opatha has written and published a new book titled Organizational Behaviour: the human side of work which is another mammoth and herculean work, single handedly. It is the first 91��ýn English Medium textbook on Organizational Behaviour (OB) published in 2015 having A4 size 672 pages and 14 chapters providing a systematic and rational understanding of OB, both conceptual understanding and application-oriented understanding to the reader. Despite the long history of Management Education in 91��ý, 91��ýn literature on fundamentals of OB in English is negligible, and specially there was no single textbook on OB in English Medium written by a 91��ýn or by anyone relating to 91��ýn context which could be used by the 91��ýn student, 91��ýn university teacher and the 91��ýn manager. This book fills this gap to a significant extent. There is an essential need to have learning material and teaching material, which match 91��ýn context. Consequently this book will improve quality and relevance of OB education in 91��ý.

Key features of the book include the following:

Chapter objectives and summary
Real-life examples
Instruments developed by the author to measure various OB constructs
Vignettes and their analyses
Review questions
Activities (Cases, Critical incidents, and Skill builders)
Glossary

The book is an essential reference to everyone who wishes to become an appropriate management professional in any field.
