Series: Key Thinkers in Psychology and Neuroscience

Key Thinkers in Industrial and Organizational Psychology explores the lives, ideas, contributions, and impact of key figures who have shaped and developed industrial and organizational (I-O) psychology.

Through a chronological lens, the book traces the history and context behind the groundbreaking work of a diverse group of individuals who have influenced the field. Among those featured are pioneers such as Walter Dill Scott, Charles S. Myers, Lillian Evelyn Moller Gilbreth, Francizka Baumgarten-Tramer, Chen Li, and Bernard M. Bass. The book offers the reader a comprehensive understanding of the evolving ideas and discoveries that have shaped I-O research and practice over time.

This book is an invaluable resource for all scientists and practitioners of I-O psychology and historians of psychology, as well as anyone interested in how psychology has transformed workplaces and influenced organizational practices.
