Indian Cases in Organizational Behaviour: Insights for Leading Individuals and Teams

Indian Cases in Organizational Behaviour is an anthology of cases on organizational behaviour grounded in the Indian context. This book complements core textbooks by providing case studies for analysis. To mirror actual behavioural dynamics of managers and teams as closely as possible, the text covers managerial experiences from a range of sectors, geographies, and organization types. The text is intended to enable the students to apply the concepts in organizational and managerial scenarios to understand them more systematically, and also to glean insights with respect to nuances that may be uniquely Indian.
