Organizations in the 1990s can no longer afford to waste people talent if they are to remain competitive into the next century. This text explores the issues relating to quality, flexibility and responsibility in organizations. To be successful, businesses need to promote the positive well-being of individuals, groups and societies. This book introduces some of the most important psychological theories, concepts, and methodologies when considering what is meant by a "healthy" organization. Divided into three parts - the impact of organizations on individual employees, the negative impact on groups which suffer from unfair discrimination within organizations and the impact offers solutions to the dilemmas managers face when they attempt to improve their organization's "health". The book includes advice on how to promote equal opportunities, how to cope with and remove sources of stress, how to improve an organization's ecological image and how to make the workforce feel more valued.
