Book excerpt: Every day newcomers enter the workforce unaware of the unspoken, unwritten rules of workplace conduct. Not knowing those rules can be the beginning of their undoing; breaking them, making the wrong impression on their new peers can stand in the way of promotions and success in the workplace. This book explains the 10, generally unspoken, rules that enable newcomers to the workplace to fit in, become accepted and succeed. Readers discover why, in a non-assertive environment it is so important to put the feelings of others first, avoid conflict, be diplomatic, and build the strong rapport with colleagues that leads to success in the workplace. The book sets out from the premise that cultures are learned and learnable. Some people have simply been learning this particular culture for longer, and their behaviours reflect a knowledge of a simple set of unspoken rules. This easy read, aimed at a very wide readership, presents a series of self-reflection quizzes with suggestions on how to keep to the rules.

Download or read book Canadian Organizational Behaviour written by Steven Lattimore McShane and published by . This book was released on 2006 with total page 631 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Canadian Organizational Behaviour, Sixth Edition addresses the current and emerging workplace realities: where virtual teams are replacing face-to-face meetings, knowledge is replacing infrastructure, and companies are looking for employees with emotional intelligence, not just technical smarts. Globalization means that co-workers aren't down the hall, they're at the other end of an Internet connection located on the other side of the planet.This new edition explains how emotions guide employee motivation, attitudes, and decisions; how values have become the new resource to shape workplace behaviour; how a person's social identity relates to team dynamics, stereotyping, and organizational culture; and how appreciative inquiry has become one of the most important strategies in organizational change. This book also presents the new reality that organizational behaviour is not just for managers; it is relevant and useful to anyone who works in and around organizations.The first and only indigenous OB text on the market, Canadian Organizational Behaviour, Sixth Edition, is written by a Canadian for Canadians. Incorporating feedback from over 100 instructors over the past few editions, as well as cases and exercises gathered from across Canada and the world, there is no more Canadian-centered and global-focused text available.

Download or read book Workplace Democracy written by Donald V. Nightingale and published by . This book was released on 1982 with total page 313 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book begins with a historical review of how authority in the Canadian workplace has changed over the past century. It proceeds to outline a theory of organization which provides a broad conceptual framework for the empirical analysis which follows. This theory is based on five concepts: the values of organizational members; the administrative structure of the organization; the interpersonal and intergroup processes; the reactions and adjustments of organization members; the social, political, economic, and cultural environments of the organization. A sample of 20 industrial organizations was selected to examine the effects of significant employee participation and to test the theory. They are matched pairs: ten permit some form of participation, and ten-similar in size, location, industry, union/non-union status, and work technology-follow conventional hierarchical design. The resulting data demonstrate that greater productivity results from employee participation in decisions relating to their work, in productivity bonuses, and in profit sharing and employee share-ownership plans.
