Synopsis
Draw upon existing organisational psychological theories with this book on how to use them in practice., The Psychology of Work integrates psychological theory with personal narrative from global industry leaders, as well as those entering the workforce, to offer tangible insights into the real world of work. It is ideal for students, professionals and anyone with an interest in how successful organizations operate. It charts the development of the field of organizational psychology and provides the key theoretical frameworks. Crucially, it explores how these can be utilized to enhance organizational culture, and why this is so relevant and important in the modern workplace. Through the inclusion of interviews with students, The Psychology of Work reveals what the future workforce expect of the organizations that they are going into and encourages students reading the book to reflect on what kind of leaders they would like to be. The book is also a valuable resource to support professionals and practitioners, highlighting current working practices and the need for change, offering practical guidance on how to bring the 'humane' back into organizational life., Work engagement is an intriguing dimension of workplace psychology. According to a study done by Gallup, 87% of employees identify as either not engaged or actively disengaged, and actively disengaged employees currently outnumber engaged employees 2-to-1. To make sense of people's behavior in complex organizations, instead of offering a dry presentation of organizational psychology theories, Chantal Gautier analyzes transcripts from interviews with people at different levels in various types of organizations and sheds light into real organizational work practices. Personal narratives, exercises and reflective practices make the material relatable to everybody's experience. The Psychology of Work explores the role of integrity, recognition, commitment, leadership, communication, and autonomy in employee engagement and happiness. It raises awareness of current working practices and stresses the need for change. Offering very practical advice, Gautier emphasizes the importance of putting the "humane" back into organizational life., "Organisational Psychology in Practice" presents a new angle on working practices and the need for change. It is an interesting and inspiring alternative to the existing dry and inaccessible books and shows you how to put the 'humane' back into organizational life. It draws upon existing organizational psychological theories, explains them through narratives that anyone can relate to and introduces practical as well as reflective qualitative data and learning aids. It has an academic yet light-hearted writing style and consists of pedagogy, references, practical examples, and transcripts of interviews from people at different levels working in various well-known organizations.
