Produktbeschreibung
* Poses the problems inherent in being a 'psychomanager' that requires specialized knowledge so that many Australian managers have yielded their authority to counsellors, coaches and consultants. * Unpacks the falsie that human behavior is determined by internal and external forces over which individuals have little or no control. * Freud, Maslow, Eysenck, Skinner and other influential psychologists have denied, or minimized the importance of, personal responsibility. And insofar as managers have entered into an unholy alliance with them, they too have minimized personal responsibility at the workplace. * Using his 50 years of study and teaching, the author has represented both sides of the debate about personal responsibility and human freedom. * A personal and selective account of a professional life spent studying the problematic relationship between managers and psychologists.
