Call for Papers: Positive Organizational Behavior

Call for Papers - Special Issue of Organizational Behaviour and Management Review on Positive Organizational Behavior

The Portuguese journal Organizational Behaviour and Management Review is looking to compile a set of papers contributing to improve Positive Organizational Behavior (POB) research and practice through a further refinement of POB's scope and goals, a higher knowledge on its determinants and consequences, and an illustration of how POB concepts can be put in practice. As such, a variety of approaches, methods, positive variables and theoretical frameworks are highly welcomed. Also, papers can be both oriented towards theory development or empirical testing. The papers may be submitted in English or Portuguese for review purposes, and should be prepared in accordance with the APA guidelines. All papers should be submitted by December, 1, 2006, to co-guest editor Miguel Lopes. You may also contact him for further information.

Visual Complexity



This site depicts hundreds of interesting visual representations of complex systems. It takes awhile to load the front page, so if you're on a dialup connection - be prepared!

I've also selected one beautiful image and linked to it here. It's called the Spherical Surface of Dialogue.
