Editorial Reviews
Review
“This book takes us much closer to understanding one of the underlying causes for some of the issues we are all dealing with in our efforts to reshape organizations. We recommend it to anyone and everyone interested in understanding more about what makes codependent people act as they do at work.”–
Book Description
This book focuses attention on a common psychological element of the workplace that adversely affects how employees know themselves, each other, and their organizations. Allcorn describes the distorted system of thinking, feeling, and acting which characterizes codependency and examines the resulting control techniques which lead to a self-defeating and paradoxical life style. The origins of codependency in the family of origin are discussed and a model explains how it is learned. A new psychoanalytically informed perspective of the three faces of codependency is provided and a psychodynamic model explains codependency's psychological grid-lock. The implications of codependency for the workplace are discussed throughout the book and two chapters are devoted to how organizations can cope with codependency at work.
