European Association of Work and Organizational Psychology Congress 2017

The EAWOP 2017 congress will be held at University College Dublin’s O’Reilly Hall and O’Brien Centre for Science, it is a 3 day event taking place from the 17th – 20th May.

The main theme will be ‘Enabling Change Through Work & Organizational Psychology’. Over 1600 delegates from all fields of ‘Work & Organizational Psychology are expected to come together to share research and interests.

Experts from cut-e, the international assessment specialist, will present sessions on gamification and the ‘dark triad’ of personality in the workplace.
 
cut-e is the gold sponsor of the event, which has been organised by the European Association of Work and Organizational Psychology to showcase new research and best practice. The four-day event will highlight new challenges and emerging opportunities for enabling change, via keynote lectures, workshops, symposia, presentations, poster sessions and debates.
 
Richard Justenhoven and Nora Nienhaus from cut-e will present a symposium – with Lara Montefiori of Arctic Shores and Tim Warszta from Westcoast University of Applied Sciences – entitled Game-Based Assessment: Concepts and insight from research and practice (Thursday 18 May, 3.00-4.00pm in the Elan Theatre of University College Dublin’s O’Brien Centre for Science).
 
Serena Murphy from cut-e will present a poster session on contextual performance, investigating the relationship between the ‘dark triad’ of personality and workplace deviance. “The ‘dark triad’ comprises three personality traits: narcissism, psychopathy and Machiavellianism,” she explained. “People who show these traits typically have an emotionally cold and manipulative interpersonal style. We’ll be looking at the impact of this in the workplace.”
   
As EAWOP’s gold sponsor, cut-e will host a drinks reception and a debate on the smart use of big data in HR, in which industry experts will air their views. This free event will be held at the Odessa Club, 13 Dame Court, Dublin, on Thursday 18 May, 8.00pm-10.00pm.
