Unconscious at Work by Anton Obholzer & Vega Zagier Roberts & James Krantz
Individual and Organizational Stress in the Human Services
Offers managers and staff in the caring fields new ways of looking at the stresses involved in their work which undermine effectiveness and morale. Wide range of care settings analysed using a variety of approaches and ideas.Unconscious processes in organizations add greatly to the stresses inevitable in caring work. "The Unconsious at Work" is designed for people actually managing and working in the human services and offers them new ways of looking at their own experiences of stress at work. The contributors, all past and present members of the Tavistock "Consulting to Institutions" Workshop, explore the difficulties experienced by managers and staff in a wide range of care settings, including hospitals, schools and community care agencies. They draw on ideas from psychoanalysis, open systems theory, Bion's work with groups, and group relations training, ideas which will enable readers to increase their understanding of the processes which undermine effectiveness and morale within institutions. |
