psychology in the workplace

behavior. Generally, often psychology called to the science of soul because
correlate with the things psychological / psychiatric .Same as the sciences

psychology clinical, social psychology, psychology development , psychology
cross cultures , psychology industry
& organization; an organization , psychology environment , psychology
sports , and of child psychology & organization; young people .Of several
sub this field psychology industry and organization is an area special to
focus on application the science of psychology for individual problems in
companies that in particularly relevant to the use of human resources and
behavior organization .
Engineering psychology is the science of human behavior
and capability, applied to the design and operation of systems and technology.
As an applied field of psychology and an interdisciplinary part of ergonomics, it aims to
improve the relationships between people and machines by redesigning equipment,
interactions, or the environment in which they take place. The work of an
engineering psychologist is often described as making the relationship
more "user-friendly."
The
Importance of Soft Skills in the Workplace
When it comes to skills in employment, the first line of emphasis is
typically towards abilities, training and knowledge of specific skill sets.
These are referred to as hard skills. Soft skills are often overlooked, but
they also play an important role in day-to-day operations. Small business
owners should place equal importance on hard and soft skills during the hiring
process for new employees. In addition, current employees should be encouraged
to develop soft skills if they are lacking in this area.
Ø Drive/Work Ethic
This is a difficult skill to quantify, but employees will
typically either display a strong work ethic and the drive to complete tasks,
or they won't. While a work ethic is largely an innate skill, it can be learned
with proper training and motivation. Some employees may be able to develop a
stronger work ethic with incentive based pay or monetary rewards such as
bonuses if they reach a certain goal.
Ø Communication Skills
Communication skills are the most important soft skills for
an employee. The ability to communicate through the spoken and written word is
a necessity in nearly every industry and in every workplace. Communication
skills can be learned and improved with the right training. It may take time
for employees to learn effective communication skills, particularly if they
have a naturally shy disposition. In this case, a course on public speaking can
work wonders. The techniques learned by speaking to a large crowd can be
adapted for daily communications and these lessons are typically good
confidence builders for employees.
Ø Teamwork
The ability to work well within a team is another important
soft skill. Some employees may naturally feel comfortable working within a
group, while others may have problems and prefer to work alone. It is necessary
to spot these personality types ahead of time for proper group formation. Every
team should have a diverse set of personalities that mesh together as a
cohesive whole. Team building exercises can be very beneficial in helping
employees develop this skill.
Ø Decision Making and Problem Solving
Being able to make quick decisions, think on their feet,
and solve simple problems are important employee traits. Even simple problems
such as a copier being out of toner can grind an office to a halt if no one
displays these simple skills. At least one employee needs to have the ability
to take charge of a situation and guide the others through if they have
difficulty. The employees who display these decision making skills are often
excellent candidates for promotion to management level.
CHAPTER 3
CONCLUSSION
College should not only had an obligation demanding his
students to be able to pass swiftly with IPK cum laude but much more than that
a student to be are provided with competence and skill to know and prepared to
enter into the world of work .A college must also strengthen soft-skill besides
hard-skill that has been obtained , because soft-skill is a thing that is
necessary for success accepted and entering the workforce to be able to compete
in entering work .A graduate of a college need to have the capacity of the competitiveness
of , skills of them face the recruitment process for and selection working
.With the skill of the recruitment process for face and selection working ,
individuals will have a clear understanding of the world of work .As well as
the awareness to be entrepreneurs so that the graduates not passive and only to
be job seekers but most of the state of being a a creator of jobs that can
accommodate many workers .
