It is important to learn where to go to find current issues and
relevant “hot topics” in your field of study. For this assignment, you
will explore an industry website. The Society for Industrial and
Organizational Psychology (SIOP) Inc., is Division 14 of the American
Psychological Association and Organizational Affiliate of the
Association for Psychological Science (APS).
Part I:
Review the following pages for the recent workplace trends according to SIOP:
Society for Industrial and Organizational Psychology (SIOP). (2014).
New year, new workplace! SIOP announces top 10 workplace trends for
2015. Retrieved from http://www.siop.org/article_view.aspx?article=1343 (Links to an external site.)

Once you read both SIOP articles, do the following:
- Briefly describe the topic that you found most interesting
- Reflect on why you believe you are interested in this topic
- Explain how you would go about learning more about the new trend
Part II:
Now, investigate the “Current TIP Issue” via the http://my.siop.org/tipdefault (Links to an external site.) page.

interest to you. Once you’ve read the article or section, do the
following:
- Describe your choice and why it was interesting to you.
- Share at least two things that you learned from your selection.
The paper should be in APA style and be a minimum of 1500 words.
