This book presents the influences of social networks in modern society. It describes the growing reliance on relationships among the society, which warrants for closer interaction among organisations and individuals. These relationships are better known as social networks. Traditionally, networks include the physical face-to-face interaction created by organisations and individuals. Nonetheless, its role has further been emphasised with the exploitation of Internet-based networks, which attracted researchers to gain further insights into its adaptation. In addition, the importance of social networks has been discussed in numerous contexts both locally and worldwide. The main aim of this book is to highlight some of the prevailing issues and challenges in the adaptation of social networks in the society viewed from the lenses of organisations and individuals. More specifically, this book documents collection of chapters written by credible authors from various nationalities and backgrounds. Thus, it presents a holistic view of social networks and their influences.

This book provides an understanding and imaging of how a stress-free workplace might be designed and implemented in the context of the ‘new normal.’ Statistics show that more and more people are experiencing an increase in work-related stress, and its impact on individual psychology and well-being as well as organizational performance can be devastating. Globally, the most recent data on work-related illnesses account for 2.4 million deaths. Against this backdrop, and taking stock of how the pandemic is affecting the workplace and employee well-being, this book proposes transformations in work spaces, from implementing effective “greening” features, to more efficient technology-supported spaces. It establishes links between workplace design and creativity, happiness and productivity, confronting related issues such as generation gaps, digital interruptions, collaborative work environments and sustainability, and their respective connections with workspace environment and well-being. The book situates this discussion within a broader discussion on work and quality of life. Furthermore, the book demonstrates how several sustainable development goals might be achieved through transformed work spaces. Through an intersection between organizational psychology, well-being and quality of life studies, sociology, human resources, and ergonomics, this book is a timely examination of work-related stress in relation to work spaces that require rethinking and transformation in the throes, and wake, of the pandemic.
