Organizational Behaviour in Sport
About this eBook
The book explores behaviour on individual, interpersonal, group and whole-organization levels, and presents an evidence-based framework for analysis built around key concepts such as:
- Change and culture
- Leadership
- Motivation, rewards and incentives
- Power and influence
- Conflict, disputes and grievances
- Equity, diversity and inclusion.
With international case studies, learning objectives, review questions and guides to further reading included in every chapter, no other textbook develops critical skills or an awareness of ethical issues in such detail and depth.
