Book excerpt: "Scholars worldwide have studied attitudes and behavior in work organizations for decades, and they have accumulated vast amounts of knowledge regarding such phenomena in many different contexts around the world. Interestingly, scholars in different countries adopted a largely domestic orientation regarding the issues and concepts they studied, focused mainly on their own countries, thus begging the question of whether such results of research extended or generalized to other parts of the world. In the United States, for example, scholars were only jolted into developing a much broader perspective about four decades ago when they realized that the U.S. could not just take an insular, domestic economy focus, but that organizations in the U.S. were operating in a global economy, and needed to better understand foreign competition and how behavioral phenomena in organizations operate in countries outside of the U.S. Emerging Trends in Organizational Science Phenomena: Critical Roles of Politics, Leadership, Stress, and Context is a collection of 32 original chapters, reporting on research conducted around the world by scholars in many different countries in efforts to bring to bear a greater collective comprehension of how people in work organizations around the world think, feel, and behave. We are living and functioning in very interesting times where the world is shrinking in perspective, and we as organizational scholars need to acknowledge these changing times in our research orientation. We believe this book is a decisive step in the direction promoting the global organizational sciences. We believe our Emerging Trends book can be of great use to several different audiences. First, as organizational scientists, we see this book as being of great interest and use to other scholars studying organizational science phenomena, as they plan and conduct their own research. Also, we see this book being useful in classroom settings for Ph.D. seminars, and even special courses in Organizational Behavior and Industrial/Organizational Psychology. Because most of the chapters in this book spend considerable time discussing the practical implications of the results provided, we also see the book being of use in MBA and executive educations classes. Overall, we hope you enjoy the collection of original chapters we have put together in this book, and that it provides a useful addition for both science and practice of phenomena in the organizational sciences"--
