Practical Problems in Organizations

Forty-two field-based cases in leadership and organizational behavior are presented here, grouped by themes of personal characteristics of leadership, strategic thinking, influencing others, designing organizations, and leading change. Cases were chosen to represent a variety of industries, protagonist gender, diversity, international settings, and level in organizational hierarchy. Many cases are new, while some from the past reflect classic issues. This casebook can be used independently from the author's textbook. Clawson teaches business at the University of Virginia.
