Book Description
An in-depth look at some of the newest issues in psychology and how they can shape our lives, at home and at work - from AI and eco-psychology, to the psychology of social media. Psychologists have always shone a torch into many dark corners of the human mind. They study everything, from art preferences to altruism, coaching to criminality, and justice to honesty. But in our hyper-connected, post-pandemic world, less-understood issues are now emerging, which can be unsettling for people who are trying to make sense of the many changes happening around them. The language of psychology offers clear descriptions and explanations for all sort of phenomena, including many of these more modern conditions. Knowing more about how these conditions manifest themselves and how they can be treated can help people to feel happier, and better able to identify and realize their full potential. Written to accompany the highly successful Psychology 101, this book takes a closer look at 50 of the emerging concepts in modern psychology. From the psychology of passion to unconscious bias, The New Psychology explains how these issues impact both our personal and professional lives, helping you to reassess the pressures facing you at work and pursue a more fulfilling work/life balance.

The New Psychology of Leadership
Author: S. Alexander Haslam
Publisher: Psychology Press
ISBN: 1136846492
Category : Psychology
Languages : en
Pages : 304
Book Description
Winner of the University of San Diego Outstanding Leadership Book Award 2012! Shortlisted for the British Psychological Society Book Award 2011! Shortlisted for the CMI (Chartered Management Institute) Management Book of the Year Award 2011–2012! According to John Adair, the most important word in the leader's vocabulary is "we" and the least important word is "I". But if this is true, it raises one important question: why do psychological analyses of leadership always focus on the leader as an individual – as the great "I"? One answer is that theorists and practitioners have never properly understood the psychology of "we-ness". This book fills this gap by presenting a new psychology of leadership that is the result of two decades of research inspired by social identity and self-categorization theories. The book argues that to succeed, leaders need to create, champion, and embed a group identity in order to cultivate an understanding of 'us' of which they themselves are representative. It also shows how, by doing this, they can make a material difference to the groups, organizations, and societies that they lead. Written in an accessible and engaging style, the book examines a range of central theoretical and practical issues, including the nature of group identity, the basis of authority and legitimacy, the dynamics of justice and fairness, the determinants of followership and charisma, and the practice and politics of leadership. The book will appeal to academics, practitioners and students in social and organizational psychology, sociology, political science and anyone interested in leadership, influence and power.
