The purpose of this article is to help instructors apply the Competing Values Framework in both skills‐based and theory‐based courses in management, organizational behavior, and leadership. The article is based on interviews with ten professors of organizational behavior who use the framework extensively in their teaching. It presents the major reasons for adopting the framework, successful approaches used to introduce it in courses, methods of making it relevant to managerial work, its various applications in theory courses, and the reactions students have to it.
