factors that affect how managers manage. It is
the field’s job to describe the complex human
context in which managers work and to define
the problems associated with that realm. The
value of organizational behavior is that it isolates
important aspects of the manager’s job and
offers specific perspectives on the human side of
management: people as organizations, people as
resources, and people as people.

play a vital role in managerial work. To most

organizational behavior even more explicitly to
management and then turn to a more detailed
examination of the manager’s job itself.
