Aimed at people managing and working in the human services, including consultants, trainers and students of organisational behaviour. Offers employees new ways of looking at their own experiences of stress at work, and of increasing understanding of the processes which can undermine effectiveness and morale. Part 1 contains the conceptual framework and examines the unconscious aspects of organisational life from psychoanalytical and from open systems theory perspectives. Part 2 looks at the stress involved in working with people and includes sections on working in a special baby care unit, with damaged children, disabled children, older people, and with dying people. Parts 3 and 4 deal with organisations and their effects on the people who work in them.
