We are all increasingly familiar with modern business terms such as total quality management, just-in-time production, e-business, lean manufacturing and teleworking. But what really lies behind these terms and what effect do these and other new practices have on productivity and performance and, crucially, what is their social and psychological impact?
Written by leading authors from around the world, The New Workplace provides an up-to-date assessment of research into the human effects of new working practices, including team-working, call centres, virtual organizations and supply chain partnering. The impact on productivity and performance is considered in detail in a later section, while the final sections give guidance on a range of methods and tools for evaluating the social and psychological effects, as well as looking to the future. The practical focus means that The New Workplace can be used to help with the design and implementation of new working practices, ensuring that best results are achieved.
Indispensable for students and scholars of organizational psychology, The New Workplace will also be useful for consultants, as well as human resource managers and others charged with the management of new workingpractices. Это и многое другое вы найдете в книге The New Workplace : A Guide to the Human Impact of Modern Working Practices (David Holman, Toby D. Wall, Chris W. Clegg, Paul Sparrow, Ann Howard)
