19th Eawop Congress 29th May – 1st June 2019 Turin, ITALY Working for the greater good Inspiring people, designing jobs and leading organizations for a more inclusive society In partnership with: with the support of: 19th Eawop Congress 29th May – 1st June 2019 Turin, ITALY Welcome to EAWOP 2019 Congress Dear friends and colleagues, It is an honor and a pleasure for me to welcome you all here in Turin at the 19th Congress of the European Association of Work and Organizational Psychology. The Congress is realized thanks to the contribution of the two Italian consti- tuent associations of EAWOP: Italian Association of Psychology (AIP) and Italian Society of Work and Organizational Psychology (SIPLO). As President of the Congress, I am really proud to announce that we will have more than 1800 participants at the Confe- rence, coming from a large number of European countries. Following a trend already underway in recent EAWOP congresses, we have signicantly increased the presence of researchers and professionals from other continents: North and South America, Australia, Africa, and Asia. I am sure that the scientic quality of the Conference is guaranteed by key notes and state of the art speakers of high international level. You will also have the opportunity to choose between more than 150 thematic symposia. There will be about 700 oral presentations and 400 posters that will cover the various topics of our discipline with recent research data. We have also promoted various specic occasions to encourage debate between researchers and practitioners. The Congress will host some special events organized by the Alliance for Organizational Psychology to broaden a global perspective of W/O Psychology. Finally, the pre-conference workshops will provide a large number of young researchers with the opportunity to learn new research methods or to acquire new professional knowledge. After a long discussion within the Program Committee in 2017 we have chosen the following title of the Congress: Working for the greater good: Inspiring people, designing jobs and leading organizations for a more inclusive society With this title we wanted to underline how the W/O Psychology can perform a social function on a large scale, to gene- rate well-being for individuals and organizations and to contribute to solving wide-ranging organizational and social issues. Today we can appreciate how successful the title is, given how the issues of inclusion have become increasingly central into the world of work and in the organizations. We are therefore certain of the scientic richness of the Congress given the quality of the papers you have proposed. We are also certain that these four days will be the occasion for new exchanges aimed at the construction of network and future innovative projects. For our part, we have done our utmost to make these days enjoyable also from a logistical standpoint, setting up the Congress at the prestigious location of the Lingotto in Turin. Being in Italy, we also took care of your gastronomic expe- rience. We hope that you will appreciate the coee breaks, lunches and social events. We also hope you can enjoy the beauties of the city and take advantage of the extraordinary culinary tradition of the Piedmont region. To close this brief welcome address I would like to thank the Program Committee that collaborated in the scientic plan- ning of the event, all the components of the Advisory Committee for their contribution, and the Local Organizing Com- mittee which took charge of the construction of the event guaranteed by the technical and administrative support of the International Congress Center (CCI). I wish you all an enjoyable and enriching Congress Prof. Franco Fraccaroli University of Trento (Italy) President of the Congress EAWOP 2019 Dear friends and colleagues, YES, it's nally here - the 2019 EAWOP conference in Torino! For the past two years, we've all been eagerly awaiting a new edition of our high mass of work and organizational psychology. I won't hold you up for too long as I know you want to get down to business right away. But let me highlight three important things for you at this conference. First, one of the aims of EAWOP in the next years is to explore how our group can have more impact. Our discipline is generating so many valuable insights and practices but they often don't get picked up. Please, benet from invited and regular sessions discussing how we could broaden our scope and enhance our societal, organizational and scientic impact. Second, if we are to broaden our scope, we need more people on board. Are you enjoying the EAWOP conference? Then volunteer to take on a more active role in EAWOP. You can help us grow the organization and direct it in the direction you think we could add most value. Third, we're experimenting with something new. This year we don't have a formal congress dinner. The congress dinner has not always been extremely well attended, perhaps because of the high additional cost for participants. To stay true to our conference theme ‘towards a more inclusive society’, this year we are bringing you a more aordable 'Apericena' (formed by adding 'cena' – dinner – to ‘aperitivo’). It is a unique Italian tradition of getting together with friends and colleagues around food and drinks to informally meet, talk and laugh. We do hope you will come and join us for this truly Italian experience. Salute and have a great conference! Frederik Anseel EAWOP President The choice of Turin as the hosting city of the 19th Eawop Congress, expresses the deep bond between this city and the Work and Organizational Psychology, both from the academic point of view and from the point of view of the productive context. The Department of Psychology of the University of Turin has ancient origins, linked to the gures of Angelo Mosso (Turin, 1846-1910), Federico Kiesow (Brüel, 1858 - Turin, 1940, to whom the Department Library is dedicated), and Angiola Massucco Costa (Brescia, 1902 - Torino, 2001). Currently, 63 professors and researchers work in the Department; 8 of them belong to the scientic area of Work and Organizational Psychology. In addition to these, there are numerous research fellows, scholarship holders and PhD students, who founded in 2018 the WOW Research Group (Work and Organizational Well-being). The group's main subject of investigation is the theme of well-being in work contexts, decli- ned in dierent objects of study. The Department oers a Master's Degree in Work and Wellbeing Psychology in Organi- zations, attended by over 100 students each year from many Italian regions. Turin is the city where FIAT (Fabbrica Italiana Automobili Torino - Italian Automobiles Factory, Turin) was born in 1899, today part of the FCA Group. The building that hosts the Congress was one of the rst plants for the industrial production of cars, inaugurated in 1923, and still today it is possible to admire the helical ramps that lead to the elevated test track on the roof of the plant. The presence of FIAT, together with that of Olivetti (in Ivrea, province of Turin) and of many other public and private companies active in our area, was an important motivation for the development of the Work and Organizational Psychology in the second half of the 20th century, since it generated multiple opportunities for research and intervention, as well as numerous collaborations with the Department of Psychology, both scientic and didactic. I hope, in these few lines, to have explained the link between this city and our discipline. On behalf of all the colleagues of the Local Organizing Committee I want to thank the people of CCI (our supplier for the organization of the Congress) for the fruitful collaboration and wish each of you to fully enjoy these days of Congress work.
