In this episode of Organizational Sherlocks, Elizabeth Fleming and Morgan Ashworth tackle three common myths in industrial-organizational (IO) psychology: that it's only about hiring and firing, that bias can be fully removed with technology, and that burnout is just about long hours. They clarify the true breadth of IO psychology, discuss the limits of algorithmic tools in hiring, and explore the complex, systemic causes of burnout. Tune in to deepen your understanding of the field’s nuance and learn practical insights for managing people and organizations more effectively.
