Managing for Resilience
Routledge (Verlag)
978-1-138-12463-9 (ISBN)
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.
Dr. Monique Crane is a lecturer in Organizational Psychology at Macquarie University, Sydney, Australia. She is also a director in a private consulting firm, which provides evidence-based resilience training to private and public organisations.
