Reviews

Proactivity is more than each one of us doing things. Proactivity is about communities at work making things happen. This book is a practical and evidence-based guide to proactivity at work in ever more agile and complex meso and macro environments. I recommend this book to all managers, leaders, coaches, and HR practitioners. Professor Almuth McDowall, Birkbeck University of London Powering Workplace Proactivity is one of the most important books on workplace motivation to be published in recent years. Dr Joanne Gray has developed a highly accessible, evidence-based framework that anyone can use to better understand others and be more proactive. Filled with useful insights and tools, this book is essential for anyone who manages people or who helps teams be more effective. Dr Hayley Lewis, Managing Director, HALO Psychology A timely and comprehensive exploration of proactivity in the workplace with insightful, practical guidance. I welcomed the wide repertoire of relevant research evidence used to help us develop a better understanding of how individual, job, social, leadership, and organizational factors can enhance or inhibit proactivity. The mix of case studies, the PROACTIVE work design model, and other techniques make this book a useful toolkit for creating environments where proactive individuals can flourish. Professor Kamal Birdi, Head of Institute of Work Psychology, Sheffield University
