Understanding the relationship between knowledge and action is vital, because without knowledge there is often no action and because knowledge can strongly influence actions. However, there is often considerable inconsistency between knowledge and action, and the research available on this relationship is not widely known. This intriguing volume provides help, by summarizing the findings of the research group “Knowledge and Action,” which was funded by the German Science Foundation and includes leading scholars from relevant areas such as social psychology, cognitive psychology, work and organizational psychology, educational psychology and developmental psychology.The chapters included in this book therefore examine the action-relevant function of knowledge in different areas, as well as investigating the effects that the acquisition of knowledge has on action in certain fields.

Projektmanagement ist mehr als nur planen und organisieren: Personen führen, mit Konflikten und Krisen umgehen, kommunizieren, Meinungsbildung und Projektumfeld steuern, die Identifikation der Mitarbeiter fördern, Wissen und Kreativität managen. Worauf es dabei ankommt, erklären in dem Handbuch erfahrene Psychologen und Experten aus der Projektmanagement-Praxis: Ausgehend von typischen Problemen aus dem Projektalltag werden psychologische Hintergründe erläutert und Lösungen präsentiert. Mit Tipps zum Selbstmanagement, Fallbeispielen und Checklisten.
