People and Technology in the Workplace

National Academy of Engineering and Commission on Behavioral and Social Sciences and Education, Nati - Organizational Body;

The papers in this volume, and the symposium on which it is based, reflect the work of managers and union representatives, engineers and consultants, professors, and practitioners. Despite their common interests in the implementation of new technologies, these groups do not often meet and talk together. There are language barriers across the groups as well as within; there is no more automatic understanding, much less consensus, among sociologists and psychologists than among managers and engineers from the same industry or even the same firm. There is tension because of conflicting goals and expectations: the theoretical interests of scholars versus the day-to-day concerns of managers; the technological priorities of engineers versus the human resource priorities of personnel managers and labor leaders; underlying values of autonomy or control, individualism or collaboration.
