Imagining the Post-COVID Workplace explores the impact of how work and the workplace have changed as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, cost of living crisis, worldwide inflation, and potential impending recession.
Leading scholars from across the globe consider the challenges and opportunities the pandemic has created for organizations and employees in all aspects of their jobs and working lives. The book follows a narrative from the broad pandemic-induced disruptions to individual and organizational responses, and new work dynamics, culminating in the long-term societal impacts on work and well-being. The chapters examine key trends from organizational psychological topics, including communication, HR strategy, culture, teamwork, leadership, ethics, managing stress and burnout, workplace health and safety, flexible working, the future of careers, and retirement. Brought together, these chapters offer a comprehensive overview of important areas within the field of work and organizational psychology, and how they connect to the post-COVID workplace. The authors provide guidance on embracing agility, resilience, and innovation to thrive in an uncertain and rapidly changing environment.
This book is essential reading for professionals looking to understand and redesign their workplace as a result of the changes due to the COVID-19 pandemic, including industry leaders, organizational psychologists, human resource professionals, employers, and managers. It will also interest all students and scholars of work and organizational psychology, and organizational studies, who are interested in the direction of change within the workplace.
