Sibling relationships are special in many ways, not least because
often siblings are the family members who go through their whole
lives together But those relationships can be fraught with strife
or tension, bouts of happiness or strain and stress. They can
predict and affect other relationships in our lives, and they can
offer solace or sadness over the years. Here, Suzanne Degges-White
looks at the variety of sibling relationships with an eye to
improving both the good and the bad. Using real stories throughout,
the author illustrates the broad spectrum of problems (and rewards)
that can come from having a sibling. Examining such factors as the
early family constellation, birth order, cultural diversity, and
family communication patterns, Degges-White illustrates how these
relationships can affect so many other areas of our lives, and
considers how adult sibling conflict, rivalry, abuse, and loss
influence our lives. She offers suggestions for effective responses
to adult sibling conflict as well as enhancing family communication
and deepening the sibling connection in adulthood. No matter what
the sibling relationship is or has become, this work will help
readers consider how situations might be improved or addressed,
even if it means letting go of unhealthy sibling relationships.
With workplace stress and burnout at record levels, everyone needs to
understand the mental health challenges we face at work. But these
challenges can be hard to anticipate and manage, whether we're tackling
our own sense of overwhelm or trying to help a colleague.
That matters, not just for individuals, but for organisational
wellbeing too. Poor mental health is miserable for the people affected;
it's also bad news for success more widely.
That's why we need to work on our Wellbeing Intelligence (WBQ), a
first-aid kit of tried and tested tools to help us assess and manage
mental wellbeing as individuals, in teams and as part of wider
organisational cultures.
From self-care and self-assessment to how to help others and the right
kinds of policies and support, Wellbeing Intelligence offers a
practical guide to better mental wellbeing for everyone.
