How can you motivate people? Why do teams sometimes fall out? Can businesses really be run in ethical ways? Can managers really control the workers hearts and minds? • Can work be creative? • Many students, particularly those with an interest or background in science or engineering, tend to have reservations about completing a unit in such ‘a fuzzy and unquantifiable subject’ as OB. An introductory session may do little to change opinions. • How would you attempt to overcome such reservations? Organisational behaviour: a multidisciplinary approach Mullins, L.
