Editorial objectives 

Journal of Managerial Psychology concerns itself with the wider aspects of human resource management derived from the application of psychology theory and practice, helping managers better deal with current personnel issues. The aim is to promote a dialogue between theory and practice, and to disseminate high quality quantitative and qualitative research to student and practitioners of management, psychology and allied fields.

Coverage

• Communication and its influence on action
• Developments in leadership styles
• How managers achieve success
• How work design affects job motivation
• Influences on managerial priorities and time allocation
• Managing conflicts
• The decision-making process in Eastern and Western business cultures 

Topicality

Although managers often receive extensive training in technical areas of their work, dealing with people is assumed to be a natural gift. Contemporary working environments, with their relentless pressures, often create situations where an understanding of psychology can enlighten and provide insight for resolution of problems. The journal presents case histories, research and practical examples applicable to your own organization.

Key benefits

Psychology as a discipline and theoretical field has been at the core of Organizational Behaviour and People Management since their emergence in the first half of the last century. Journal of Managerial Psychology positions itself at the leading edge of developments in psychological knowledge as applied to managing and organizing. It encourages novel discourse and the application of theory, aiming to provide a bridge to practice based on solid foundations of credible research.

While practicing the applied scholarship of psychology, the journal welcomes input from aligned disciplines such as sociology, anthropology and the health sciences which help highlight psychologically related issues applied to management.
