Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book presents research from an extensive four-year program using organizational development to promote economic growth in Latin America. The author points out that while the application of psychology to economic development is becoming more popular, such work is seldom done on a systemic level, which can limit both its scope and duration.
