Il met ensuite l'accent sur une méthodologie visant à la prévention du stress et des risques psychosociaux prenant en compte les trois dimensions que sont l'organisation, le management et l'individu. Pour cette deuxième édition, l'ouvrage s'enrichit d'une partie consacrée au changement, de ses modalités d'accompagnement des entreprises illustrées de plusieurs cas concrets. L'ouvrage permet au lecteur d'acquérir une bonne connaissance des mécanismes psychologiques et managériaux du stress et des risques psychosociaux en milieu de travail et donne tous les outils théoriques et pratiques afin d'élaborer des stratégies de prévention.
