This edition is dedicated to my good friend Larry Amy,
who put up a valiant fight against throat cancer.
His caring manner, great sense of humor, and
crazy personality will be missed—as will
the dollars he lost every other week with
the Charlton Lane poker group.

I would also like to thank my family, friends, and students for accommodating my
time spent writing and for all their ideas and support. I appreciate my colleagues Eric
Dunleavy, Mark Nagy, Kayo Sady, Michael Surrette, and David Cohen, who patiently
allowed me to bounce ideas off them, vent, and ask dumb questions. Thanks also to
my SIOP, IPMA, IPAC, and SHRM colleagues for their insight and stories. There is
no way I can properly express my gratitude to my mentor, Dr. Wilson W. Kimbrough,
who taught me much more than facts and theories, and to Dr. Al Harris and Dr. Daniel
Johnson, who have been so supportive throughout my career.
Finally, I thank my wife, Bobbie, and son, Josh, for their love and emotional
support. Most of the time, writing a book is an enjoyable process. However, during
the times I was stressed or confused (an increasingly common occurrence), my family
was always patient and understanding. I could not have done this, or much of any-
thing, without them. I would also like to thank Bobbie for her contributions in helping
write the stress chapter, the section on organizational culture, several of the Career
Workshop Boxes, and all of the Focus on Ethics Boxes.
