Description
Book SynopsisEmotion has traditionally been studied as an outcome of work, for example in the form of job satisfaction or job strain. In recent years, however, organisational psychologists have begun to recognise that emotions experienced at work, such as anger and shame, can have a direct effect on employees' well-being and performance.
