As this book goes to press, the world is struggling to cope with fallout from a "perfectstorm" of human frailties that has led it to the brink of financial disaster. Althougheconomists surely would offer a more statistically sophisticated analysis, to me, thefinancial crisis reflects the inherent irrationality and imperfect nature of individuals,groups, and the organizations in which they work. Here, I speak of the arrogance and
greed of some corporate executives (of several venerable brokerage firms), investors'seemingly blind faith in individuals trusted as experts urities analysts), and the col-lective belief that ostensibly risky investments (financial instruments backed by sub-prime mortgages) would be safe. History has revealed otherwise.
Although I am shaken by this crisis as a citizen of the planet, the scientist withinme cannot help but marvel at what it reveals about the stunning complexity of humanbehavior in the workplace. It showcases precisely why, in the final analysis, it is peoplemore than anything else that make the ultimate difference in organizations. As such, itreinforces our ongoing investment in developing the rich tapestry of organizational behavior (or OB, as it's commonly called) as a field to study and to apply. And of course, it also illustrates precisely what makes grappling with these complexities so worthwhile. ABOUT THIS BOOK The fifth edition of Managing Behavior in Organizations does not promise to shed light on the world's financial state, or even to address finances at all. However, it will leave readers with a good understanding of the factors that lead us to make seemingly irrational deci- sions, that promote our trust in others, and that make us greedy (or, at least, willing to try to get away with greedy behavior). These dynamics, and scores of others covered in this book, are useful not only for understanding financially motivated behavior but for shed- ding light on a myriad of situations people are likely to face on a daily basis in their work lives. To say, then, that its approach is broad would be an understatement. The book covers vast, and vitally important, territory because so too does the field on which it reports.
