The labor market is evolving very rapidly in recent years, in Europe and worldwide. The fast and deep changes brought a brand-new context of challenges and occupational risks to the attention of stakeholders. The current global financial crisis has increased the economic pressures on companies and they in turn have intensified the effects on employees, particularly in terms of new competition contexts and a lot of stress and mental health issues. Concurrently, social, political, and environmental problems generate under-employment, over-qualification, over-education, low wages for skilled workers, and unmet demand for education. Consequently, both high skilled and low skilled immigrant workers are increasing. In addition, workplaces are continually changing in step with the introduction of new technologies, materials, and work processes, together with the changes in the labor market, the new forms of employment, and the new work organizations. These changes lead to new opportunities for employees and employers – but also to new risks or re-actualization of old organizational risks. According to the EU-OSHA, the key points that describe the evolution that is currently ongoing in the world of work are globalization, the technical innovation, and the aging population. On one hand, some older potential risks are reappearing in organizations: intensive fear and worries, organizational anxiety, boredom, physical violence, alienation, segregation, loneliness, and isolation. On the other hand, re-emerging perceived organizational features seem vital for organizations and more important today than ever. Central constructs in the study of organizational behavior and organizational health such as perceived organizational support, commitment in organizational context, socialization processes, change capacity of organizations, perceived organizational justice, ergonomics, and motivation, nowadays seem increasingly important and renewed.

This book examines a topic widely regarded as the most pressing in career counselling today, i.e., how to ensure that everyone receives career counselling and that all workers have the opportunity to engage in sustainable, decent work. The author holds that career counselling should not only advance workers’ self- and career construction, helping them design successful career-lives and make social contributions, and live purposeful lives – it should also expound new theoretical approaches and interventions. Furthermore, the book criticizes global society for overlooking the basic needs of many workers, especially the most vulnerable and disadvantaged. An important feature of the book is its emphasis on promoting a creative and innovative approach to career counselling so as to better answer contemporary career-related questions. It offers guidance on how to advance entrepreneurship and help workers develop critical thinking, curiosity, creativity, collaboration, and communication skills. In this way the book promotes innovation in career counselling and maps the way forward in a theoretical and practical manner that helps clients ‘flourish’ rather than merely ‘survive’ in turbulent times impacted by the fourth wave in psychology, career counselling, the economy, as well as the 4th industrial revolution (Work 4.0).

This book is the product of a series of reflections by career counseling and guidance specialists on a question central to society: "How can career and life design interventions contribute to fair and sustainable development and to the implementation of decent work all over the world? ". This question was formulated by Professor J. Guichard, the director of the UNESCO Chair in Lifelong Guidance and counseling at the University of Wroclaw, Poland. The researchers involved in this Chair’s activities proposed answers which form the chapters of this book. These reflections emphasize the need to focus on the study and implementation of certain central psychological processes which can enable individuals to face the main challenges of our society. The contributions also propose new avenues of intervention for career counseling and guidance. The entire book is the bedrock of a program of research and interventions to be implemented in order that the field of career counseling and guidance plays a key role for individuals who must design their lives in a rapidly changing, and ever more complex context. This book is therefore a major scientific contribution and marks a turning point for researchers and practitioners in career counseling and guidance, and for all professionals who support the self-construction of individuals in the 21st century. "The authors draw on a diverse range of disciplines and research traditions and offer readers a rich array of insights, helping them reflect on how career guidance can be mobilised to serve citizens in a world that is increasingly challenged by complex, seemingly intractable problems. A central, crosscutting concern is the ways in which career guidance can foster well-being by facilitating access to meaningful and fulfilling work in contexts that promote equity, social justice, and dignity for all. While engaging the micro-worlds of individuals, and throwing light on their valiant efforts to design a life that realises their hopes and aspirations, it is a commendable feature of many of these papers that they do not eschew the societal – indeed planetary – stage across which personal dramas are enacted.” Prof. Ronald G. Sultana, Director, Euro-Mediterranean Centre for Educational Research, University of Malta. "The primary strengths.....are the authors' capacity to provide forward thinking perspectives on the important issue of sustainable lifelong interventions and career design in its broadest sense. The volume offers depth in a way of thinking that is pertinent to the 21st century and provokes both an in interest in the further study of this domain as well as providing tools and references for novice and experienced researchers and professionals. The book is sure to become a major text in the field." Prof. Maurice Taylor, Faculty of Education, University of Ottawa, Canada

El presente manual desarrolla las cuestiones claves de la Psicología de las Organizaciones actual, con el objeto de contribuir a la comprensión del pensamiento, las emociones y la conducta de las personas en los contextos organizacionales. A través de los diferentes capítulos de este volumen se exponen, de forma necesariamente resumida, las concepciones y bases teóricas y empíricas de la disciplina más relacionadas, a nuestro juicio, con la labor de un profesional de la Psicología de las Organizaciones. El libro consta de doce capítulos. Los dos primeros tienen carácter introductorio, y su objetivo es crear un marco de referencia desde el que sea más fácil comprender los procesos que se describen a lo largo del texto. El Capítulo 1 está destinado a precisar qué se entiende por Psicología de las Organizaciones y a exponer el desarrollo histórico de la disciplina. Para ello, se analiza su definición, las premisas de las que parte y la naturaleza de los procesos que estudia. El Capítulo 2 examina la mutua influencia entre el ambiente y la estructura de las organizaciones. Asimismo, se abordan las conexiones existentes entre ambos aspectos, con objeto de mejorar la comprensión de los procesos organizacionales y de las potenciales respuestas de las organizaciones a las demandas del ambiente. Los tres capítulos siguientes abordan procesos de naturaleza «Procesual», es decir, procesos que tienen lugar en las organizaciones y que nos ayudan a comprender el resto de los contenidos. El Capítulo 3 se dedica al estudio de la cultura y el clima organizacional. En él se analizan las definiciones de cultura y de clima organizacional para poner de manifiesto la complejidad de los constructos que se abordan en el capítulo. En relación con la cultura organizacional también se exponen las principales herramientas de medición de la cultura , así como las relaciones de la cultura y del clima organizacional. Por último, se exploran dos variables claves de la cultura organizacional, la confianza y el cinismo. En el Capítulo 4 se estudia el conflicto y la negociación en las organizaciones, que son dos procesos omnipresentes y que tienen gran incidencia y serias consecuencias para el bienestar de las personas. También se presentan las principales teorías del conflicto y las consecuencias de los procesos de negociación en el comportamiento futuro de las personas. El quinto capítulo se ocupa del análisis de uno de los temas más relevantes de la disciplina: el poder y el liderazgo en las organizaciones. En el desarrollo del tema se presta especial atención a la investigación empírica. El estudio empírico o científico del liderazgo se basa en la formulación de teorías que son contrastadas a través de la investigación. El siguiente bloque está dedicado a fenómenos organizacionales centrados en el individuo. El Capítulo 6 se centra en el estudio de la motivación laboral, y en él se desarrollan los dos principales enfoques que han abordado este tema desde la Psicología de las organizaciones, desde las teorías clásicas a las propuestas más recientes. El capítulo 7 se dedica al estudio de las actitudes, en concreto de la identificación organizacional y de la satisfacción laboral. Se han analizado los diferentes focos con los cuales se identifican las personas dentro de las organizaciones, debido a que comparten identidades anidadas, las unas dentro de las otras, e identidades transversales, como el género, la edad, la profesión o el grupo étnico. A continuación se han explorado las consecuencias de la identificación organizacional dentro del ámbito del trabajo, prestando atención tanto a las consecuencias positivas como a las negativas. El capítulo 8 se dedica al desempeño activo en las organizaciones. En este capítulo se analizan los múltiples aspectos del desempeño en la organización, tanto el desempeño en el puesto, como el desempeño contextual, o conductas de ciudadanía organizacional e incluso el desempeño negativo, o conductas contraproducentes. También se ha desarrollado la relación que las diferentes formas de desempeño tienen entre sí y con otras variables relevantes en el ámbito del trabajo y de las organizaciones en general. Los tres capítulos siguientes se agrupan en una sección dedicada a los procesos de naturaleza interaccional entre las personas y las organizaciones. El capítulo 9 se dedica al estrés laboral y la salud ocupacional. Se han expuesto los conceptos claves para comprender el proceso de estrés laboral, se han analizado los modelos teóricos aplicados al estrés en el trabajo y se han explorado los principales hallazgos empíricos que apoyan las relaciones entre los estresores tradicionalmente estudiados por la literatura, así como otros que despiertan creciente interés en función de los cambios que afectan a la actividad laboral. Así, en el Capítulo 10 se abordan los procesos implicados en la incorporación y socialización organizacional. En concreto, en este capítulo se ha realizado una exposición del concepto de socialización y de las cuatro teorías más relevantes que le han dado apoyo a la investigación empírica. Además, se han revisado los componentes básicos de la socialización organizacional, como los modelos de etapas. Asimismo, se ha puesto especial atención en las tácticas de socialización, tanto las promovidas por las organizaciones como las personales. A continuación se han explorado el contenido de la socialización, los instrumentos para evaluarla y la relación de estos contenidos con los resultados. Por último, se presenta un conjunto de desarrollos más recientes, centrados en el contrato psicológico y en la e-socialización. El siguiente capítulo 11 está dedicado al estudio del emprendimiento y la innovación en las organizaciones. Se ha dedicado gran atención al emprendimiento, tanto al independiente como al intraemprendimiento, dada la repercusión en el desarrollo económico y social de cualquier país. Para finalizar, el Capítulo 12 se inicia con la presentación de las últimas tendencias dentro de la Psicología positiva aplicada a las Organizaciones. En él se ha recogido tanto el Modelo Salutogénico, por su larga trayectoria y gran amplitud de miras, como el Modelo JD-R, que se ha elaborado específicamente para la Psicología Organizacional y las nuevas perspectivas de la Psicología de la Sostenibilidad y del Desarrollo Sostenible. La reciente perspectiva de la Psicología de la Sostenibilidad y del Desarrollo Sostenible no sólo se encuadra en la Agenda 2030, sino que promueve la construcción de organizaciones saludables orientadas a la consecución del Trabajo Decente, objetivo especialmente pertinente para la Psicología de las organizaciones entre los ODS (Objetivos de Desarrollo Sostenible) del Milenio. Cada capítulo presenta la siguiente estructura: términos clave, objetivos, desarrollo de los contenidos del capítulo y resumen. Asimismo, antes de las referencias bibliográficas, se reseñan direcciones Web y lecturas recomendadas que facilitarán la profundización y/o comprensión de los contenidos expuestos a lo largo de los capítulos. Finalmente, el manual cuenta con un glosario en el que se definen todos los términos clave referidos en cada uno de los capítulos. Esperamos que, a través del material que se presenta en estas páginas, nuestro alumnado se adentre con entusiasmo en el estudio de una disciplina tan apasionante como la Psicología de las Organizaciones. Este no es sólo nuestro deseo, sino también el propósito con el que decidimos llevar a cabo el manual que ahora tiene en sus manos. Gabriela Topa Cantisano

Identity-based approaches to understanding thoughts, feelings, and actions in organizations have produced, particularly in recent years, an array of rich insights that have broadened the domain of organizational behavior. This book brings these insights together in one complete source and uses them collectively to stretch further the boundaries of the discipline. Blake Ashforth accomplishes this goal by creating new ways of viewing the many forms of role transitions evident in organizational life. He looks at role transitions people make during the workday (i.e., from spouse/parent to employee) and studies the identity and status issues faced. This unique authored book also creatively accomplishes two scholarly objectives. First, it provides a needed review, critique, and integration of what is known about being socially defined in an organizational context; and second, it provides fresh and intriguing perspectives on the dynamics of role engagement and disengagement both within and between organizations. This book will appeal to psychologists, managers, and lifespan development researchers interested in the transitions people make as they go through life.
