Editor's review

Organizational Behavior (3rd Edition), edited by Professor Duan Wanchun, is a classic textbook widely recognized in higher education, professional training, and self-study. Published under Chongqing University Press's distinguished educational publishing program, the book has undergone multiple revisions and has matured in depth of content, structural coherence, and applicability. Drawing on his long-standing expertise in the field, the author integrates theory with practice and classical frameworks with cutting-edge inquiry, constructing a comprehensive and thought-provoking disciplinary framework. The book unfolds systematically across three levels of organizational behavior—individual, group, and organization—covering core modules such as personality, motivation, and group dynamics, while also addressing contemporary issues facing modern organizations, including organizational change, corporate culture, and innovation management. In terms of professional judgment, this edition features clear and fluent language, rigorous yet accessible exposition, and case selections that balance classic and current examples, reflecting a unity of academic value and practical relevance. Rather than merely cataloging knowledge, the book emphasizes rigorous logical reasoning combined with real-world scenarios to guide readers in reflecting on the underlying logic of managerial behavior and in developing the ability to systematically analyze and solve practical organizational problems. For beginners, it is a reliable guide to building a disciplinary map; for practitioners, it is a valuable tool for refreshing knowledge and stimulating thought. Its reading value lies not only in imparting objective knowledge about people and behavior in organizations but also in enhancing readers' capacity to understand, predict, and even shape behavior in complex, dynamic organizational environments—a profound cognitive empowerment.

Who it's for

A good fit for

Undergraduate and graduate students in management, human resources, and related fields, as a core textbook or important reference.
Managers and practitioners engaged in human resource management, team management, or organizational development in enterprises.
Professionals and psychology enthusiasts with a strong interest in organizational mechanisms, teamwork, leadership, and related topics.
Readers preparing for advanced study or graduate entrance examinations in organizational behavior, management, and related fields.

Not a good fit for

Readers seeking quick-success techniques or simple management secrets; the book emphasizes systematic theory and in-depth analysis.
Casual readers more interested in pure business stories or personal biographical narratives than in structured theoretical learning.

Reading tips

It is recommended to first read the table of contents to grasp the book's three-level logical framework—individual, group, and organization—and establish an overall conceptual framework.
While reading, actively connect the theoretical knowledge in the book with organizational phenomena observed in one's own work, study, or life to deepen understanding.
The review questions or case analyses at the end of each chapter are important for testing and consolidating learning outcomes; readers are advised to take them seriously and attempt independent answers.
