The Association for Business Psychology is the professional representative, deliberative and regulatory institution for business psychologists. It has global members but the majority can be found in the United Kingdom and Ireland. The ABP certifies business psychologists at multiple levels; Certified Business Psychologist, Certified Principal Business Psychologist and Fellow of the Association for Business Psychology. It holds annual conferences, approves university courses in the field, negotiates on behalf of the profession, and makes training and other information available both to members and to others.
The Association was set up in 2000 by members of the Division of Occupational Psychology of the British Psychological Society who felt that the Society was too academic in its approach and insufficiently attuned to the practical and fast-moving needs of their organisational clients.[1] The first chair was Dr Brian Baxter.
The Association was renamed the Association for Business Psychology following a membership vote in December 2013. The organisation is currently seeking a new Chair/CEO.[2] The Association's purpose is to "champion business psychology."[3]
Definition
Business Psychology is the study and practice of improving working life. It combines an understanding of the science of human behaviour with experience of the world of work to attain effective and sustainable performance for both individuals and organisations.
Business or Organisational Psychologists are professionals who apply principles and techniques from psychology to the world of work and business. We study things like peoples personality traits and utilise evidence of workplace behaviours to understand how they impact the overall performance of an organisation. We are involved in tasks such as mentoring leadership, selecting and assessing employees, designing and implementing training and development programs, improving organizational communication and culture, and facilitating organisational change.
Business Psychology in Practice
Examples of how business psychology is applied can be found in a collection of case studies, published by WileyШаблон:ISBN.
A second book, Business Psychology in Action, was released in Paperback on 2 Dec. 2015. Шаблон:ISBN (Шаблон:ASIN)
Further examples are published regularly on the ABP website at http://www.theabp.org.uk/news.aspx. Many additional case studies have been collected by the ABP from submissions to their annual Workforce Experience Awards programme, which are released from time to time.
