The ABCs of Organizational Psychology

From A to Z, this playful alphabet book turns organizational psychology into a story kids can enjoy and grown-ups will instantly recognize.

Each letter introduces a core concept of the workplace, from Attitude Surveys and Burnout to Year-End Reviews and the Zone of Comfort. With simple language, witty nods to office realities, and a focus on what actually makes organizations tick, it is a fast, fun read that doubles as a surprisingly sharp primer on the science of work.

Along the way, little readers will discover Feedback, Group Dynamics, and Hierarchy, while the adults in the room try not to laugh too hard at Likert Scales, KPIs, and Unconscious Bias. Whether it is the optimism of Employee Engagement or the existential truth of Burnout, every page captures something real about life inside organizations.

Perfect as a gift for I-O psychologists, HR professionals, consultants, managers, and anyone who has ever sat through a Needs Assessment, this is an ABCs book with just enough truth to make you laugh — and just enough science to make you think.
