## Summary

Organizational behaviour is the study of how individuals, groups, and structures act inside organizations. It sits where psychology, sociology, anthropology, and management research overlap — and it tries to answer the obvious but stubborn questions: why do people work, what makes a group cohere, why do firms produce predictable patterns of pathology, and how do you design a place that doesn't. Key sections include: Organizational Behavior.; Opening What OB is.; Chapter I The Hawthorne studies.; Chapter II Maslow's pyramid.; Chapter III Theory X and Theory Y.; Chapter IV Hygiene and motivators.; Chapter V Schein's culture model.; Chapter VI The Dunbar number.; Chapter VII Forming, storming, norming, performing.; Chapter VIII Psychological safety..
