Description
This text uses realistic case examples, discussion questions, and self-tests to illustrate principles of workplace psychology. Each chapter begins by posing a difficult work situation, which may be a conflict, a motivation problem, or an issue of diversity, then goes on to discuss principles and theories that apply to the case, covering areas of ethics, problem employees, and organizational culture, as well as neglected areas such as the physical atmosphere of the workplace, the effects of new technologies on workers, and workplace gossip. Harris teaches management at the University of Louisiana- Monroe; Hartman, at the University of New Orleans. Annotation copyrighted by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
