Summary Drawing together group researchers from social psychology and organizational studies, this book considers how groups try to accomplish their goals and how they operate in organizational settings. Chapters focus on theoretical perspectives, social and motivational processes, conflict and power, innovation and learning, and liabilities. Specific attention is given to issues of identity, leadership, motivation, interdependence, negotiation, status, creativity, racial bias, social justice, and individual worth.
