  • Selection and self: Selection as a Social Process
    European Journal of Work and Organizational Psychology, 2002
    Co-Authors: Peter Herriot
    Abstract:

    Recent developments in theory and research in Social psychology make possible an integrated account of selection construed as a Social Process. This account draws upon Social psychological theories of the functions of the self, relationship development, Social identity, self-categorization, and emotion. First, an account of the selection Process in these theoretical terms is presented, together with some theoretical propositions. Next, research in one area, applicants' reactions to selection Processes, which is consistent with this account is reviewed. Finally, implications for practice are drawn. It is argued that there are strategic implications both for organizations and for the psychology profession.

  • Managing to relate: organizing as a Social Process
    Career Development International, 1997
    Co-Authors: Dian‐marie Hosking, Phil Haslam
    Abstract:

    Achieving collaboration within and between organizations is seen commonly as being problematic. Looks behind some of the current management thinking to find the “taken‐for‐granteds” implicit in that thinking and practice, which constitute an “entitative perspective”. Viewing managing and collaboration from such a perspective facilitates certain questions about managing. Suggests that there is an alternative, relational, perspective which promotes different questions. From this relational perspective, managing is seen as just one Social Process of making sense of situations or communications, termed “text”, in relation to context. Argues that this sensemaking Process is conversational and provides insights into the Processes of collaborating.

  • grounded theory and Social Process a new direction for leadership research
    Leadership Quarterly, 1998
    Co-Authors: Ken Parry
    Abstract:

    Abstract The purpose of this article is to argue the case for the use of grounded theory as a valid method for researching the Process of leadership. The contention is that leadership is a Social influence Process, and that mainstream leadership research methodologies have been partially unsuccessful in theorizing about the nature of these Processes. Grounded theory is a method which, if applied rigorously, will help to overcome the deficiencies in mainstream leadership research methodology. The underlying criterion driving grounded theory is to generate leadership theory rather than to test theory.

  • Remittance as a Social Process
    Bangladeshi Migration to Singapore, 2017
    Co-Authors: Mizanur Rahman
    Abstract:

    The remarkable growth in remittances has drawn the attention of states, international organizations, and financial institutions worldwide. Research on remittances has gained momentum in recent years, resulting in a burgeoning scientific literature on the phenomenon in different parts of the world (for a review, see Adams et al. in Migrant remittances and development: research perspectives, Social Science Research Council, New York, 2009; Rahman et al. 2014). Broadly, existing studies on remittances are concerned with seeking ways to reduce poverty by leveraging remittances and migrant capital for development in rural areas of developing countries.

  • Remittances as a Social Process: The Singapore-Bangladesh Remittance Corridor
    Asian and Pacific Migration Journal, 2010
    Co-Authors: Mizanur Rahman
    Abstract:

    This study argues that research linking the contexts of remittance-sending with remittance-receiving is far more capable of capturing the complexity of remittances and its development dynamics. Focusing on the Singapore-Bangladesh remittance corridor, this study examines remittances in relation to remittance sending, receipt, use and control, and finally their potential for development. The findings suggest that recruitment fees, sources of arrangement of fees, earnings and savings affect the amount and frequency of remittances on the sending side. The study documents male domination in remittance receiving and attributes this to generational patterns of transfer - from sons to fathers or elder brothers. The recipients of remittances enjoy more privileges in the management of remittances. Remittances are invested in both physical and human capital formation and they help migrant workers and their families advance on the road to improved life chances.
