Routledge (Verlag)
978-1-032-28636-5 (ISBN)
Organisational psychology is a complex and dynamic field that focuses on human behaviour in the workplace, and explores how individuals, groups and organisations function. Structured in three parts, the book combines an overview of the field with effective advice on how to become a successful organisational psychologist. It offers a deep-dive into the British Psychological Society’s five core areas of organisational psychology: Psychological Assessment at Work; Learning, Training and Development; Leadership, Engagement and Motivation; Well-being and Work; and Work Design, Organisational Change and Development. Chapters include key academic and theoretical concepts, practical applications, future directions for the field, key learning points, and further reading.
Written by highly qualified experts in the field, this text is ideal for both undergraduate and postgraduate students taking programmes or modules in organisational psychology or related topics, including work and business psychology and human resources, as well as human resources practitioners. This text will also be valuable for anyone interested in understanding how organisations function and the best ways to allow individuals and organisations to survive, thrive and flourish.
