Division of Organizational Psychology: Roya Ayman

In the last newsletter, Professor Peter Dachler encouraged the membership to use the Newsletter and exchange ideas and news. Our field needs the input and contribution of all of our colleagues all over the world. We need to hear from you. Tell us of developments in your country regarding organizational psychology research and practice. Inform us of recent publications by yourself or your colleagues. Provide announcements regarding upcoming events and calls for contributions to conferences. In this newsletter, we have included a sample of selected publications to inform our colleagues around the world of the recent developments in the field. It is hoped that in the future, with your help, we can keep everyone informed of new publications, articles or books. We have been discussing, with Prof. José M. Prieto, a way to increase communication among the members through electronic means. This newsletter is awaiting your news and information please help it to attain its goal to be global and inclusive.

Please make time, take a minute, and drop me a line either through e-mail (ayman@charlie.acc.iit.edu) or fax: (312) 567-3493. Thank you!
