Download or read book Relaciones entre el clima organizacional y la satisfacci n laboral written by Margarita Chiang Vega and published by Universidad Pontificia Comillas. This book was released on 2010-11-02 with total page 302 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: El estudio del clima organizacional aporta conocimientos fundamentales para la comprensión de las relaciones laborales y para la calidad y eficiencia de la acción organizativa. En estos dominios, la influencia de variables actitudinales, tales como la satisfacción laboral y, de ciertas variables personales, como la autoeficacia, pueden tener una acción preponderante sobre la interacción social que se desarrolla entre los distintos actores que componen las organizaciones y por ello, sobre los resultados obtenidos en el trabajo. La aportación más relevante y convergente en estas investigaciones señala que es más probable obtener mejores resultados laborales en: alto desempeño, compromiso o cooperación, cuando las personas se sienten parte de un grupo de trabajo con un clima organizacional satisfactorio, cuando perciben que tienen las competencias adecuadas para desarrollar su trabajo y cuando son recompensadas y reconocidas como agentes significativos de los resultados organizacionales. No sorprende entonces que, la relación de las variables organizacionales y personales esté representando una influencia relevante sobre la dinámica de la vida organizacional. En este libro se desgranan cincuenta años de seguimiento científico sobre esta curiosa relación que se establece entre el clima organizacional y la satisfacción laboral que, aunque de un modo intuitivo pueda parecer obvia, adquiere matices diferentes, pertinentes todos ellos a la singularidad de los diferentes contextos organizativos.

Download or read book Brand Attachment written by C. Whan Park and published by Now Publishers Inc. This book was released on 2008 with total page 50 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this review is to provide an overview of various literatures related to consumer search for information, and its effect on markets. Normative models of consumer search prior to purchase, and of consumer search through experience, are reviewed first. Models of consumer consideration set formation are also outlined. These models are generally based on consumers balancing the costs and benefits of search, which implies that search should be limited if it is costly. The extensive empirical literature on consumer search, which is reviewed next, does indicate that search is limited. The third major section of this review discusses the effect of search on market equilibrium, and market forces related to the supply of information. These include models of how advertising, retailing, and the Internet become organized to facilitate consumer search. The review concludes with a discussion of overall findings and suggestions for further research.

Download or read book Emotional Labor in the 21st Century written by Alicia Grandey and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-05-07 with total page 340 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book reviews, integrates, and synthesizes research on emotional labor and emotion regulation conducted over the past 30 years. The concept of emotional labor was first proposed by Dr. Arlie Russell Hochschild (1983), who defined it as "the management of feeling to create a publicly observable facial and bodily display" (p. 7) for a wage. A basic assumption of emotional labor theory is that many jobs (e.g., customer service, healthcare, team-based work, management) have interpersonal, and thus emotional, requirements and that well-being and effectiveness in these jobs is determined, in part, by a person’s ability to meet these requirements. Since Hochschild’s initial work, psychologists, sociologists, and management scholars have developed distinct theoretical approaches aimed at expanding and elaborating upon Hochschild’s core ideas. Broadly speaking, emotional labor is the study of how emotion regulation of oneself and others influences social dynamics at work, which has implications for performance and well being in a wide range of occupations and organizational contexts. This book offers researchers and practitioners a review of emotional labor theory and research that integrates the various perspectives into a coherent framework, and proposes an agenda for future research on this increasingly relevant and important topic. The book is divided into 5 main sections, with the first section introducing and defining emotional labor as well as creating a framework for the rest of the book to follow. The second section consists of chapters describing emotional labor theory at different levels of analysis, including the event, person, dyad, and group. The third section illustrates the diversity of emotional labor in distinct occupational contexts: customer service (e.g. restaurant, retail), call centers, and caring work. The fourth section considers broader contextual influences – organizational-, societal-, and cultural-level factors – that modify how and when emotional labor is done. The final section presents a series of ‘reflective essays’ from eminent scholars in the area of emotion and emotion regulation, where they reflect upon the past, present and future of emotion regulation at work.
Download or read book Work Engagement written by Arnold B. Bakker and published by Psychology Press. This book was released on 2010-04-05 with total page 218 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides the most thorough view available on this new and intriguing dimension of workplace psychology, which is the basis of fulfilling, productive work. The book begins by defining work engagement, which has been described as ‘an opposite to burnout,’ following its development into a more complex concept with far reaching implications for work-life. The chapters discuss the sources of work engagement, emphasizing the importance of leadership, organizational structures, and human resource management as factors that may operate to either enhance or inhibit employee’s experience of work. The book considers the implications of work engagement for both the individual employee and the organization as a whole. To address readers’ practical questions, the book provides in-depth coverage of interventions that can enhance employees’ work engagement and improve management techniques. Based upon the most up-to-date research by the foremost experts in the world, this volume brings together the best knowledge available on work engagement, and will be of great use to academic researchers, upper level students of work and organizational psychology as well as management consultants.
Download or read book Personnel Selection in Organizations written by Neal Schmitt and published by Jossey-Bass. This book was released on 1992-11-27 with total page 592 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Unprecedented advances in the scientific study of personnel selection have given researchers and practitioners new ideas and tools to achieve greater success in measuring and linking skills, knowledge, and abilities to job performance requirements. Personnel Selection in Organizations is a timely presentation of emerging issues in research and practice, providing new and exciting perspectives on the theoretical, empirical, and societal changes that will affect the study and practice of virtually every personnel selection topic. The careful analysis of current procedures and practices, joined with an insightful identification of areas where ongoing research is needed, will be a valuable resource for all those interested in the continuing development of the field. In sixteen original chapters, leading experts highlight the personnel selection issues that will receive increasing attention in the years ahead. The authors thoughtfully explore key subjects in this rapidly changing field, including job analysis, criterion development, biographical and personality measures, the concept of validity, the changing demographics of the work population, the decline of the manufacturing economy, and the development of small organizations. They examine specific topics such as recruitment and retention, structured versus unstructured interviews, the ethics and effectiveness of computerized psychological testing, perceptions of selection fairness, productivity, turnover, and absenteeism. They also cover broader, less traditional concerns including downsizing and retirement, selection and staffing as a corporate strategy, promoting job and life satisfaction, organizational citizenship, and commitment.
