The annual award was created in memory of Raymond A. Katzell, who was a strong proponent of the scientist-practitioner model in I-O psychology. He advocated for the integration of science and practice throughout his 27 year career on the faulty at New York University, and as a long-time member of SIOP’s volunteer leadership structure.
The Katzell Award recognizes a SIOP member who has significantly increased public awareness of the important contributions I-O psychology makes in improving people lives by addressing social issues.
