Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Behavioral Sciences is currently publishing manuscripts for a Special Issue on communication in the workplace. This Special Issue will include articles that draw on a range of theoretical and methodological perspectives that will contribute to our understanding of the impact of communication practices on work relationships: for instance transformational leader’s communication shaping/influencing organizational culture, the impact of communication of critical incidents that influences social entrepreneurship development, leader communication shaping psychological contracts and psychological sense of community, etc. We welcome articles that utilize quantitative, qualitative, or mixed-method approaches. Given the focus of the journal, we anticipate that several articles will reflect psychological perspectives. However, we also encourage the submission of articles that draw on multidisciplinary work, which considers the impact of communication in workplace relationships. All articles are subject to peer review. For further information, please contact Hector R. Diaz-Saenz, Ph.D. ([email protected]).
