Work Psychology
Video: Behaviour Change in Organisations
The HR function implements many policies and practices from reward to training with the intention of shaping or changing employee behaviour. In this online session, Professor Rob Briner explored our latest research on Behaviour Change in Organisations and discussed:
- What specific behaviours are required (and why).
- Whether such behaviours can be changed in principle and the major psychological theories behind behaviour change.
- The evidence for interventions aimed at influencing behaviour.
- Whether changing attitudes really changes behaviour.
- How this psychological research can inform and enhance the work of HR functions.
