Applied behavior analysis is based on B. F. Skinner's operant learning principles. Skinner's seminal work in this regard was Science and Human Behavior (Skinner, 1953). Applied behavior analysis encompasses many settings and types of applications, especially clinical and educational applications. Organizational behavior management (OBM) is a subfield of applied behavior analysis that focuses on applications in the workplace. I begin this chapter with a broad-strokes summary of the outcomes of OBM projects as reported in two literature reviews and a new review conducted for this chapter. Next, I provide a brief history of OBM, the learning principles underlying OBM applications, the OBM implementation process, performance analysis strategies, the organizational behavior systems perspective, and future directions and collaborations for OBM.
