Managing for Resilience: A Practical Guide for Employee Wellbeing and Organizational Performance

Editat de Monique Crane
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 23 mai 2017
In an era of longer hours and shorter contracts, of tighter margins and frequent organizational change, stress can undermine both the mental health and performance of employees. A culture of resilience in the workplace, however, offers the potential to support psychological wellbeing and improve the performance of both people and organizations.
This is the first book to provide managers with a guide to fostering psychological resilience within their teams. It synthesises not only the latest cutting-edge research in the area, but also translates this into practical advice for a range of organizational settings.
Chapters cover the following important issues:
  •  Key personality factors related to resilience
  •  How job design and routines can improve employee resilience
  •  How to build a resilient team
  •  Communicating change and improving teamwork
  •  Modelling resilient thinking and behaviour as a leader
  •  Selecting the right resilience training for your organisation
This is the ideal book for anyone interested in fostering a high-performance and emotionally resilient workforce, whether they are a manager, HR professional or occupational psychologist. Its cutting edge approach will also make it important reading for students and researchers of organizational and occupational psychology.

Recenzii

'Dr. Crane has assembled some of the finest minds on the topic of resilience to deliver a thoughtful, valid and practical field guide for managers. This book transforms resilience from complex social science to a toolbox in the hands of managers. The timing couldn’t be better. Any organizational leader can see the need for tough minded resilient employees who not only perform well but are psychologically healthy. Dr. Crane puts an executable roadmap in front of today’s managers to see this resilience blossom in their organizations.' - James B. Avey Ph.D., Distinguished Professor of Research, College of Business, Central Washington University
