Member Spotlight
Earlier this year, the Annual Review of Organizational Psychology and Organizational Behavior published a career perspectives article by Gary Latham in which he discussed his career and views of the field.
As a compliment to that article, Editor Frederick P. Morgeson was able to interview Gary. They had a wide-ranging discussion on the inspiration behind his research, his views of the field, career management advice, and many other topics. From this interview, a series of short video clips were compiled on the following:
- The Three Secrets to Gary’s Success
- On the Importance of Mentors
- Mentors – Seek and Embrace Criticism
- Overcoming 90% Rejection Rates
- What Does It Take to Be a Good Mentee?
- On the Marriage Between Locke and Latham
- Everything in Moderation
- Advice for Every Stage of Your Graduate Career
- On the HR/OB Dichotomy
- How Do We Make Sure Our Research Is Relevant for Organizations and Managers?
- Gary’s Soapbox: This Is the Scandal of Our Field
- Lesson Learned #1: How Do You Win by Putting Other People Down?
- Lesson Learned #2: Don’t Get Scooped
All videos can be accessed here.
Lynda Zugec, our very own IAAP Division 1 Communications Officer, received the Joan Finegan Award for Outstanding Contribution to the Canadian Society for Industrial & Organizational Psychology (CSIOP) during the Annual Canadian Psychological Association (CPA) Convention in Halifax, Nova Scotia.
