The contributions cover four broad themes on the changing nature of work and workers, leadership and management, the Asian work environment, and policy and innovation. Given global disruptions and mega trends, the book also addresses how organizations in the Asia-Pacific region respond to the COVID-19 pandemic and the resulting changing nature of work. The focal aim it to focus on current research and topical issues in leadership, workgroup and teams, organizational culture, power and politics, employee motivation and engagement, shifting demographics, workplace policies, as well as creativity and innovation.
