Reviews

'There is no more important issue facing workers, organizations, and society-at-large than the transformation of the 21st century workplace. This handbook is an extremely timely and enormously valuable resource for understanding how the intersection of technology, globalization, economics, and generational differences have changed our fundamental conceptions of work.' John C. Scott, Chief Operating Officer, APTMetrics, Inc.

'This is a must-read for students, scholars, and practitioners within the organizational sciences and beyond. With a careful eye towards evidence-based conclusions and rigorous research methods, the book provides global, interdisciplinary, and integrated perspectives - showing us how individuals and work environments impact one another, and how talent management must evolve to adapt to these changes.' Deborah E. Rupp, Professor of Industrial/Organizational Psychology, George Mason University

'This book stands out from the crowded field of books prognosticating on the future of work. Unflinching in its challenge of conventional wisdom and uniquely rigorous in its analytical methods, it adeptly integrates a vast range of workplace influences to generate clear guidance for researchers and practitioners seeking to stay ahead.' Evan Sinar, Head of Assessments, BetterUp, and Executive Board Member, Society for Industrial and Organizational Psychology (SIOP)
