The concept of the working poor is largely overlooked in organizational behavior research while the ranks of the working poor are increasing. Limited research that does exist questions basic assumptions we have about motivation, perceptions, and behavior among the working poor. What should we teach our students about the working poor in light of this emerging research? This session builds on a session at OBTC 2015 and offers suggestions to management educators who want to introduce future leaders and managers to this emerging topic through use of the SNAP Challenge tailored to OB concepts.
