Organisations are communities. Increasingly the leaders of those
communities are drawing on the services of psychologists to help
them realise the potential of their "human capital".
What do these business psychologists do to assist in the
identification, motivation and development of the talent that
employees bring into their communities?

The authors, all Principal Members of the Association of
Business Psychologists, are experienced and qualified professionals
who candidly share their experiences and learning derived from
those experiences. They provide case studies and examples from real
interventions, they ask provocative questions about conventional
thinking and practice and they explain the models that help them
make sense of the complex organisations in which they operate.
Business Psychology in Practice takes us on an excursion behind the
scenes in organisations. This book will be of interest to
consultants, those who commission their services and anybody
wrestling with 'people issues'.

Pauline Grant is a Principle Member of the Association of Business Psychologists.
