Principles of Organizational Behavior: The Handbook of Evidence-Based Management, 3rd Edition, synthesizes management principles grounded in organizational and industrial psychology research. This reference volume presents empirical evidence to inform managerial decision-making and operational strategy across organizations.

The handbook focuses on three broad domains of workplace administration: personnel selection, staff motivation, and team leadership. Within these areas, the text explores practical applications, such as using structured interviews to evaluate candidates.

Designed for academic study and professional practice, the volume serves students of organizational behavior, human resources, and public administration alongside active managers. Readers can also access complimentary, downloadable video resources linked directly to each chapter to support learning.
