It aims to teach the reader what conversations to have, and when to have them, in order to solve the destructive problems that occur in the workplace. Like the proverbial ostrich with its head in the sand, people often avoid confronting small issues at work but, if avoided, these issues will escalate and inevitably wreak havoc. Drawing on a combination of social science research and Kahn's practical experiences as an organizational psychologist, the book examines the micro-processes that underlie the way in which these problems develop and flourish. These micro-processes are tiny, fleeting, and hardly noticeable, but when they are identified, something startling becomes apparent: there is a predictable pattern to this escalation. The book uses a variety of examples to demonstrate this pattern across a range of organizations and industries, and offers a toolkit to help guide the reader in resolving people problems at work. The toolkit focuses not on changing others, but on changing how we interact with others - our own behavior is the most powerful force for change that we have"--Page four of cover. 000737623 650_0 $$aOrganizational behavior. 000737623 650_0 $$aOrganizational effectiveness. 000737623 650_0 $$aProblem employees. 000737623 650_0 $$aPsychology, Industrial. 000737623 85200 $$bgen$$hHD58.7$$i.K327$$i2016 000737623 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:737623$$pGLOBAL_SET 000737623 980__ $$aBIB 000737623 980__ $$aBOOK
