What is Organizational Psychology

Most simply stated, Organizational Psychology is psychology applied to the workplace.   It deals with complex workplace issues, such as: interpersonal relations; work group processes;decision making, power and politics; organizational change strategies; selection and classification of personnel; work motivation; job satisfaction; and leadership.

Guion (1965) defined industrial/organizational psychology as "the scientific study of the relationship between man and the world at work: the study of the adjustment people make to the places they go, the people they meet, and the things they do in the process of making a living."

Blum and Naylor (1968) defined it as "simply the application or extension of psychological facts and principles to the problems concerning human beings operating within the context of business and industry"

A less benevolent, but sometimes accurate definition, is "getting people to produce more for less, and feel good about it."
