Organisational Misbehaviour (eBook, ePUB)

Beschreibung

Misbehaviour at work has traditionally focused on work limitation, pilferage, absenteeism and sabotage. These remain important, but the organisational landscape is changing. From new forms of satirical humour and use of social media, workplace bullying and sexual misconduct, to managerial misbehaviour and its consequences, the second edition of Organisational Misbehaviour explores the latest forms of organisational subversion and offers fresh insights into the underlying dynamics of management and organisational processes.

Drawing from contemporary research, this authoritative text is suitable for anyone interested in the study of management, work and organisations.

Stephen Ackroyd is Emeritus Professor at the Management School of Lancaster University, UK.

Paul Thompson is Emeritus Professor of Employment Studies at the University of Stirling, UK.

Rezensionen

The first edition of this classic book put misbehaviour on the academic map. This second edition lives up to its predecessor: but rather than a simple update it extends the argument to important new areas such as managerial, corporate and professional misbehaviour. It does so in insightful, engaging and provocative ways. It is essential reading for anyone with an interest in this important field. Professor Daniel Muzio
