Discover why organisations behave the way they do, the effects of misbehaviour at work - and what you can do to improve things. Learn to understand the behaviour of your colleagues, managers and reports. Understanding how a business behaves can help us to understand how a business works - and how it can be made to work better. We call this discipline ‘organisational behaviour’.
