Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Toute entreprise cherche en permanence à améliorer sa performance ; quels que soient les outils employés pour y parvenir, la clé de cette performance réside toujours, en fin de compte, dans les comportements des salariés. Comment faire en sorte que les comportements dans l’entreprise génèrent de la performance ? C’est l’objet central de ce livre qui procède à une critique rigoureuse des modes de gestion des comportements dans les organisations avant de proposer un cadre théorique et opérationnel pour aborder ces problèmes de comportements. À partir d’une étude de l’absentéisme et des démarches d’amélioration de la qualité, les auteurs montrent que deux types d’insuffisances apparaissent généralement dans la gestion des comportements. Soit on considère que l’individu rationnel est le seul maître de ses comportements, soit on pense de manière illusoire que la pression collective, le poids des groupes ou la promotion des valeurs, suffira à créer chez lui des comportements. Les auteurs réconcilient les atouts de la recherche académique et de nombreuses interventions en entreprise pour développer un cadre de pensée sur les comportements en entreprise. Celui-ci permet d’intégrer ce qui, dans les comportements, relève de la logique de la personne qu’il faut essayer de comprendre mais aussi de la logique de l’organisation résidant dans sa culture réelle. L’approche proposée permet aux actions de changement de retrouver une cohérence entre les différentes ressources du management : la culture et ses valeurs fondatrices des procédures, la rationalité des systèmes d’organisation qui permettent au leadership de s arrimer et les compétences du manager.

Download or read book G rer la performance des employ s au travail written by Olivier Doucet and published by Editions JFD. This book was released on 2020-08-14 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Presque toutes les organisations se dotent d’un système de gestion de la performance pour motiver, soutenir et favoriser le développement de leurs employés dans l’atteinte d’une performance optimale. Cependant, nombre d’études et de sondages professionnels montrent que les pratiques traditionnelles d’évaluation et de gestion de la performance contribuent peu à l’atteinte des priorités et des objectifs stratégiques des organisations. Qui plus est, ces pratiques engendrent de nombreuses insatisfactions et frustrations chez les gestionnaires et les employés. Dans ce contexte, plusieurs entreprises ont modifié leur système de gestion de la performance ou introduit de nouvelles pratiques comme la rétroaction en continu, l’abandon des cotes de performance, les approches multisources ou encore la gestion de la performance par les forces. En plus d’offrir un tour d’horizon des pratiques éprouvées en évaluation et en gestion de la performance, ce livre traite des nouvelles pratiques et tendances dans le domaine en s’appuyant sur des données scientifiques. Il met en relief les effets de ces pratiques, leurs avantages et leurs inconvénients, ainsi que l’importance de leur contextualisation. Des exemples de pratiques en entreprise viennent également illustrer concrètement les concepts abordés.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Comprendre les attitudes et les comportements des individus et des groupes humains dans les organisations, en analyser les évolutions, en connaître les déterminants et les conséquences, soulèvent des questions sans cesse renouvelées. Ce premier volume d’une série de trois ouvrages propose de développer plusieurs domaines fondamentaux du comportement organisationnel : le contrat psychologique, les émotions au travail et la socialisation organisationnelle. Chacun de ces thèmes correspond à des domaines de recherche particulièrement féconds et à des problématiques centrales pour le management des ressources humaines dans les entreprises et les administrations. Traitée sous forme d’états de l’art actualisés, c’est la place des relations humaines dans les organisations qui est explorée selon des perspectives variées et novatrices.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ce deuxième volume sur le « Comportement organisationnel » présente des états de l’art sur trois thèmes contemporains suscitant de nombreuses recherches internationales. La première partie traite d’un concept extrêmement utilisé depuis près de vingt ans, celui de la justice organisationnelle. Elle invite des auteurs internationaux à contribuer avec deux des plus grands auteurs du domaine, Jerald Greenberg et Russell Cropanzano. On y trouve une synthèse des travaux théoriques sur la définition du concept et sa mesure, une étude du processus de construction des perceptions collectives de justice, et une analyse systématique des antécédents et des conséquences de la justice organisationnelle. La deuxième partie présente les dernières avancées théoriques sur les enjeux liés à la carrière de l’individu. Elle porte tout d’abord sur la notion et la perception du succès de carrière dans notre société actuelle, s’intéresse ensuite aux enjeux liés à l’équilibre « vie privée–vie professionnelle et se focalise, enfin, sur les obstacles à la progression de carrière des individus en s’attachant, notamment, au cas du plafond de verre chez les femmes et du plateau de carrière chez l’ensemble des employés. La troisième partie réunit des auteurs européens autour d’un thème novateur et encore trop peu traité : l’épuisement professionnel. Elle examine les effets de l’engagement dans le travail et dans l’organisation sur l’épuisement professionnel, étudie les effets de l’épuisement professionnel sur la santé des personnes et se termine par une analyse du lien entre ce concept et les formes de violence au travail.

Download or read book L individu et les performances organisationnelles written by Bernard Gangloff and published by Editions L'Harmattan. This book was released on 2000 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: L'individu constitue la première richesse des organisations, et donc le principal facteur de leur performance : à ce titre, il joue un rôle dominant dans la course mondiale de la concurrence, et ce grâce à ses compétences. Or, la compétence et la performance d'un individu sont fonction de sa formation, ainsi que des conditions dans lesquelles s'exercent ces compétences (confiance en soi de l'individu, dépendance hiérarchique...). Elles sont également fonction du niveau de coopération qui a lieu au sein de l'organisation, entre les individus eux-mêmes ou par l'intermédiaire d'un animateur. De ce fait, l'amélioration de la qualité de l'organisation se traduit par une amélioration sur le plan de la sécurité. On verra ainsi dans cet ouvrage que l'efficacité ne peut être totale sans prise en compte de l'environnement organisationnel. Par ailleurs, la performance d'une organisation ne se limite pas a son seul succès économique ; on ne peut négliger de prendre en compte la satisfaction des formés, ainsi que le rôle social que joue l'organisation (lutte contre les fléaux tels que l'exclusion). Tels sont les thèmes traités dans ce second volet de la trilogie issue du Xe Congrès International de Psychologie du Travail et des Organisations (premier volume paru à L'Harmattan également : Les compétences professionnelles).

Download or read book Perspectives on Corporate Citizenship written by Jörg Andriof and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-09-29 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A number of disparate but interconnected forces such as deregulation and globalization, rapid advances in communications technology and the rise in the power of the consumer and civil society have now combined to bring corporate responsibility to prominence in many corporate boardrooms. In this information age, the ramifications of not addressing best practice in environment, workplace, marketplace and community could range from bad press coverage to complete market exclusion. These are perilous times for the social construct of modern capitalism.In today's society successful companies will increasingly be those that recognize that they have responsibilities to a range of stakeholders that go beyond compliance with the law. If in the past the focus was on enhancing shareholder value, now it is on engaging stakeholders for long-term value creation. This does not mean that shareholders are not important, or that profitability is not vital to business success, but that in order to survive and be profitable a company must engage with a range of stakeholders whose views may vary greatly. If in the past corporate social responsibility was simply seen as profitability plus compliance plus philanthropy, now responsible corporate citizenship means companies being more aware of and understanding the societies in which they operate. This means senior executives and managers being able to deal with a wide range of issues including greater accountability, human rights abuses, sustainability strategies, corporate governance codes, workplace ethics, stakeholder consultation and management.The aim and scope of Perspectives on Corporate Citizenship is to help capture and distil these and other emerging trends in terms of content, context and processes, in one concise volume. With contributions from the *crème de la crème* of leading thinkers from around the world, Perspectives on Corporate Citizenship is essential reading for students, scholars and all serious thinkers on one of the most critical issues of our time.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Organizational Citizenship Behavior: Its Nature, Antecedents, and Consequences examines the vast amount of work that has been done on organizational citizenship behavior (OCB) in recent years as it has increasingly evoked interest among researchers in organizational psychology. No doubt some of this interest can be attributed to the long-held intuitive sense that job satisfaction matters. Authors Dennis W. Organ, Philip M. Podsakoff, and Scott B. MacKenzie offer conceptual insight as they build upon the various works that have been done on the subject and seek to update the record about OCB. Key Features: Explores how OCB translates into objective measures of efficiency, profitability, customer satisfaction, and other criteria of organizational functioning Examines how important OCB is in other societal cultures and correlates findings from North American studies Addresses the relative importance of individual personality as a factor in determining OCB OCB has become a foundation for concepts in Organizational Studies. This book provides an all-encompassing resource for students, scholars, and practitioners looking for a comprehensive understanding on this key topic. It is an excellent textbook for advanced undergraduate and graduate students studying organizational behavior or organizational psychology in courses such as Strategic Human Resource Management, Measurement of Work Performance; Behavioral Organization Theory; and Social Psychology of Organizations.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This second edition of the Handbook of Employee Selection has been revised and updated throughout to reflect current thinking on the state of science and practice in employee selection. In this volume, a diverse group of recognized scholars inside and outside the United States balance theory, research, and practice, often taking a global perspective. Divided into eight parts, chapters cover issues associated with measurement, such as validity and reliability, as well as practical concerns around the development of appropriate selection procedures and implementation of selection programs. Several chapters discuss the measurement of various constructs commonly used as predictors, and other chapters confront criterion measures that are used in test validation. Additional sections include chapters that focus on ethical and legal concerns and testing for certain types of jobs (e.g., blue collar jobs). The second edition features a new section on technology and employee selection. The Handbook of Employee Selection, Second Edition provides an indispensable reference for scholars, researchers, graduate students, and professionals in industrial and organizational psychology, human resource management, and related fields.

Download or read book Control Motivation and Social Cognition written by Gifford Weary and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 353 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the past two decades theorists and researchers have given increasing attention to the effects, both beneficial and harmful, of various control related motivations and beliefs. People's notions of how much personal control they have or desire to have over important events in their lives have been used to explain a host of performance and adaptational outcomes, including motivational and performance deficits associated with learned helplessness (Abramson, Seligman, & Teasdale, 1978) and depression (Abramson, Metalsky, & Alloy, 1989), adaptation to aging (Baltes & Baltes, 1986; Rodin, 1986), cardiovascular disease (Matthews, 1982), cancer (Sklar & Anisman, 1979), increased reports of physical symptoms (Pennebaker, 1982), enhanced learning (Savage, Perlmutter, & Monty, 1979), achievement-related behaviors (Dweck & Licht, 1980; Ryckman, 1979), and post abortion adjustment (Mueller & Major, 1989). The notion that control motivation plays a fundamental role in a variety of basic, social psychological processes also has a long historical tradition. A number of theorists (Heider, 1958; Jones & Davis, 1965; Kelley, 1967), for example, have suggested that causal inferences arise from a desire to render the social world predictable and controllable. Similarly, control has been implicated as an important mediator of cognitive dissonance (Wicklund & Brehm, 1976) and attitude phenomena (Brehm & Brehm, 1981; Kiesler, Collins, & Miller, 1969). Despite the apparent centrality of control motivation to a variety of social psychological phenomena, until recently there has been relatively little research explicitly concerned with the effects of control motivation on the cognitive processes underlying such phenomena (cf.

Download or read book Psychological Theories for Environmental Issues written by Mirilia Bonnes and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-03-02 with total page 279 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Environmental psychology is an increasingly important area of research, focusing on the individual and social factors responsible for many critical human responses to the physical environment. With such rapid and widespread growth, the main theoretical strands have often been left unclear and their scientific and practical implications have been underdeveloped. This essential and stimulating book contextualizes and critically analyzes the main theoretical ideas. It compares the different theories, assessing each one's possibilities and limitations, and demonstrates how each approach has been used for the development of knowledge of environmental psychology. The research area infiltrates a broad selection of disciplines, including psychology, architecture, planning, geography, sociology, environmental issues, economics and law. It also offers significant contributions to a wide range of policy evaluations. It will prove invaluable to academics and practitioners from across these disciplines, above all those in planning, environmental studies, human geography and psychology.

Download or read book Antisocial Behavior in Organizations written by Robert A. Giacalone and published by SAGE. This book was released on 1997 with total page 222 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This intriguing new volume provides an understanding of the various forms of antisocial behavior in the workplace and how they can be identified and managed--if not prevented altogether. Antisocial Behavior in Organizations includes analysis of the role of frustration in antisocial behavior, and discusses issues such as employee revenge, aggression, lying, theft, and sabotage. Whistle blowing, litigation, and claiming are also explored as types of behavior that may be considered antisocial even though their stated goal is perhaps prosocial. The book concludes by making connections between antisocial behavior and organizational climate--addressing the need for modification in the workplace to reduce antisocial behavior. Academics, students, and practitioners in the fields of management, industrial/organizational psychology, sociology, social psychology, legal studies and criminal justice will appreciate this collection of original essays written by well-respected experts.
