Text Exercises
Text Cases
This section presents an exercise that is NOT found in the student's textbook. Instructor's Choice
reinforces the text's emphasis through various activities. Some Instructor's Choiceactivities are
centered on debates, group exercises, Internet research, and student experiences. Some can be
used in class in their entirety, while others require some additional work on the student's part.
The course instructor may choose to use these at anytime throughout the class—some may be
more effective as icebreakers, while some may be used to pull together various concepts covered
in the chapter.
Web Exercises
At the end of each chapter of this Instructor’s Manual, you will find suggested exercises and
ideas for researching OB topics on the Internet. The exercises “Exploring OB Topics on the
Web” are set up so that you can simply photocopy the pages, distribute them to your class, and
make assignments accordingly. You may want to assign the exercises as an out-of-class activity
or as lab activities with your class.
This chaper begins with a vignette entitled, “Wall Street Warriors.” The details of this story are at once disheartening
and inspiring, reflecting the complexity of organizational life. They also highlight several issues of interest to those
of us seeking to understand organizational behavior, including motivation, ethics, emotions, personality, and
culture. Throughout this text, you’ll learn how we can systematically study all these elements.
BRIEF CHAPTER OUTLINE
— Nikolaitsch.
— En tiedä mitä totuus on, mutta nähtävästi sillä voi puhkaista silmät,
mutisi Pigasov ja astui suuttuneena syrjään.
— Juuri hän… Maalla hän kyllä menee mukiin — saahan hänelle edes
välistä nauraa.
— Tokkohan?
— Aivan varmaan. Sellaisissa naisissa on kumminkin tuoreutta ja sitä
ei keinotekoisesti saata hankkia jokaiselle.
— On. Tunnetteko?
Rudin vaikeni.
— Tunsin ennen… kauvan sitte. Taitaa olla rikas mies? sanoi hän sitte
hypistellen tuolin samettista päällystää.
Palvelija meni.
— Kyllä.
Leshnev vaikeni.
— Kas, minä tulin nyt teitä persoonallisesti tapaamaan, sanoi hän sitte.
Leshnev kumarsi.
