The first book in the new Industrial and Organizational Psychology Series, it explores three key topics in social psychology: the manner in which trade unions shape organizational behaviour, the organization of the union itself, and the way in which theories and methods of organizational psychology may assist labour organizations in achieving their goals. The authors thus offer a detailed study of a union's dynamics, which will interest a wide variety of people inpsychology and business. |
| Synopsis: |
This work explores three key topics in social psychology: the manner in which labour unions shape organizational behaviour, a relationship which has been effectively ignored in the literature; the organization of the union itself, a fascinating test case for the organizational psychologist; and the way in which theories and methods of organizational psychology may assist labor organizations in achieving their goals. Since the union maintains unique characteristics of democracy, conflict, and voluntary participation within a larger organization, the authors offer a detailed study of a union's dynamics, including demographic and personality predictors of membership, voting behaviour, union commitment and loyalty, the nature of participation, leadership styles, collective bargaining, among other topics. This is the first book to be published in the new Industrial and Organizational Psychology Series.It will be of interest to not only industrial and organizational psychologists in industry, academica, and private and public organizations, but to graduate students in psychology departments and business schools, and to academics and professionals in business and management studying industrial relations. |
