  • 1.  Graduate M&O text?

    Posted 04-03-1998 19:46
    Dear Teaching Colleagues-
    what text(s) would you recommend for a graduate level course in Management
    and Organization? I've been told that the text I have been using will no
    longer be available. I'll summarize replies for the list.

    Thanks,

    I'd recommend _Supervision_ by Gregory Bounds and John Woods (South-Western, 1997).

    Perhaps knowing the official course description adopted by the
    university would help us help you. For myself, I see the two topics you
    list as separate foci; i.e., separate courses, but not irreconcilable.

    Dear Jane, If you want an Organization Theory text than I would recommend:

    Gareth Morgan's book, "Images of Organizations" or as a more traditional
    text, Gareth Jones "Organization Theory."

    If you want an OB test, I would recommend: Steve Robbins "Organizational
    Behavior" or John Schermerhorn, Jerry Hunt, & Dick Osborn's text of same name.

    In addition, there are lots of good readers out there. Good luck, Kim Boal
