Leadership, Change and Organisational Psychology

This module will introduce some key models for understanding organisational behaviour; it will consider important dimensions of how people make sense of themselves and their ‘fit’ within work groups, in particular jobs, and, to the organisation itself. The module will explore real world implications of ‘fit’ for career decision-making, workplace socialisation, workplace teams etc.; and finally, the module will address issues of workplace stress and instances of deviance at work. The aim of this module is to develop the student’s ability to assess the functioning of an organisation in order to diagnose, manage and lead change. The module aims to build participant understanding so that they will be able to accurately diagnose organisational issues using different methods and phases of organisational diagnosis. It will also use an evidence-based change perspective to effectively map and model the implementation of successful change initiatives.
