This unit deals with contemporary issues of interest to organisational consultants. The unit focuses on three major topic areas. First, the workers' compensation and rehabilitation system is described in terms of policy and practice. Second, organisational and employee development is considered from the practitioner perspective. Finally, cross-cultural issues are considered with respect to communication and psychological assessment. As a significant contribution to the unit is made by practitioners external to the University, the availability and emphasis on the aforementioned topic areas can vary from year to year. -- Course Website
