Psychologists Understand How Workplaces Work

That's why The American Psychological Association have launched a new online resource at apaexcellence.org

The site contains:

Good Company newsletter, blog and podcast, featuring tips, tools and other resources to help employers create a healthy, high-performing work environment
A searchable database of professional, academic and popular press literature related to employee well-being and organizational performance
Case examples and best practices from award-winning organizations
A calendar of events with information about conferences from a variety of disciplines

At Koliso we like the idea that there is a huge store of academically verified, real work examples and cases illustrating how to make your organization more effective.

We always use widely accepted processes to help our clients. A resource like this helps us and our clients understand how the science of human behavior can be applied at work.

“David Farrar was so wonderful to work with. We planned several seminars together and David always was approachable and pleasant. He has a rare ability to work successfully with all levels of management and employees. He is very well schooled in his areas of expertise. If I were planning to do a management seminar or workshop, David would definitely be at the top of my list of people to work with.”

–Julie Nekola, former IT Communications Specialist and IT Training Manager, Cargill

“Top qualities: personable, expert, creative.”

–Ron Leonhardt, Vice President, Global Human Resources at Smiths Medical

“What a pleasure it has been to know and work with David. Our first encounter was at the Twin Cities Chapter of ASTD when he presented on Emotional Intelligence. His presentation was very well received and rated one of the best. Since then, David joined the Marketing Committee for ASTD-TCC and ultimately stepped into the role of director. His enthusiasm, willingness to dive in and help as well as his creativity all have a positive impact. Most important is David’s ability to lead. He builds such strong relationships that everyone he works with wants to do an excellent job in support of his vision.”

–Bob Cummins , director of marketing , ASTD-TCC and director of learning and development at Land O Lakes

“I would like to recommend a speaker to you who I had the pleasure of hearing.... Bear in mind that I have sat through hundreds of speakers over the years, this guy was absolutely fantastic!”
