It deals with various aspects of people’s behavior and attitudes and connects them to functions and productivity in an organizational setting. In other words, it is about how employees experience their environment and how they think, feel, behave, act, and interact in the organizational environment. This entry discusses organizational psychology’s origins and examines its applications to the workplace.
