Understanding the High Performance Workplace: The Line Between Motivation and Abuse (SIOP Organizational Frontiers Series)

by Neal M. Ashkanasy (Editor), Mark J. Martinko (Editor), Rebecca J. Bennett (Editor)

Synopsis

This book asks the crucial question: When does high performance supervision become abusive supervision? As more organizations push to adopt high performance work practices (HPWP), the onus increasingly falls on supervisors to do whatever it takes to maximize the productivity of their work teams. In this rigorous, research-based volume, international contributors offer insight into how and when seemingly-beneficial workplace practices cross the line from motivation to abuse. By reviewing critical issues in both high performance work practices and abusive supervision, it illuminates the crossover between these two modes of work, and forges a path for future scholarship.
