This is an excellent text for practicing managers and students on management and occupational psychology courses. It deals with all aspects of organizational life from recruitment and selection to motivation, leadership and organizational change. The book provides a comprehensive coverage of all aspects of behavior at work.

Relevant theories are explained and developed using practical examples, self-assessment exercises and case studies. This is a revised and much expanded version of Managing People at Work, with the addition of chapters on selection and career development, understanding and coping with change, empowerment and self-management, and the behavioural approach to motivation.
