Summary:

"The study of emotions and their effects in the workplace has become one of the 21st century's most exciting and burgeoning fields of organizational research. This work confirms that it has become increasingly clear that emotions are an essential of our understanding of organizational life." "This Companion brings together many leading scholars to address a wide range of topics in 38 chapters, across five levels of organizational analysis. Chapters tackle structure and measurement of emotion, antecedents and consequences of positive and negative emotions, including effects on work satisfaction and performance. The expression, recognition, and regulation of emotion and the propagation of mood and emotion in groups are also dealt with."--BOOK JACKET.
