From a myriad of professions in which people are under intense mental load, this thesis examines the group of top managers, particularly in companies involved in the sale of information technologies. The objective of this thesis is primarily to capture the methods and strategies for coping with stress in this target group.

Leadership style and job satisfaction
Pospíšil, Michal ; Rymeš, Milan (advisor) ; Riegel, Karel (referee)
Ocitáme se ve zvláštní a jedinečné době. Ruku v ruce s technologickými revolucemi se proměňuje i sama společnost, a tak je situace člověka v moderních (možná adekvátněji řečeno postmoderních) společnostech výrazně odlišná od jakékoliv situace v minulosti. Člověk v západních společnostech na jednu stranu požívá výhod, jaké v minulosti byly vyhrazeny jen pro nejužší špičku společnosti (namátkou třeba pravidelná strava, svoboda pohybu, soukromí), na druhou stranu nijak neklesá závislost na ostatních lidech a nutnost spolupráce. Každý člověk se někdy v průběhu svého života, někteří dočasně, jiní dennodenně po celý život, ocitá v situaci, kdy je někým veden nebo naopak někoho vede. Mohli bychom tedy mluvit téměř o antropologických konstantách. Pro pracovní oblast, organizace, které jsou nutně hierarchizované, to platí o to více. Je tedy pochopitelné, že tato oblast je v ohnisku zájmu pracovní psychologie jako aplikované vědy. Současně sledujeme zvýšený zájem o spokojenost zaměstnanců. Ve vysoce konkurenčním prostředí, ve kterém se firmy v současnosti pohybují, je nutno klást důraz na efektivitu. I když vazba spokojenosti například na výkonnost není zcela jednoznačná, zcela jistě souvisí s fluktuací a absentérstvím zaměstnanců, jejichž ekonomický dopad zanedbatelný není. Proto je i toto téma v centru zájmu...
