The People Make the Place Dynamic Linkages Between Individuals and Organizations Organization and Management Series

This volume, in honor of Ben Schneider, highlights his work on the Attraction-Selection-Attrition (ASA) model of organizational behavior which has become one of the most important models in the history of Personnel Psychology. The central tenet of the ASA model is that people matter. Although organizational structure processes, and climate and culture are important, they are fundamentally a reflection of the unique collection of people who populate an organization.

This edited volume of original scholarly contributions will add insight to the many implications of Schneider?s thinking on the ASA model and organizational climate.
