Everything you need for strengthening and flexing your resilience
muscle! Resilience can mean something different to everyone, yet it
is increasingly necessary to survive in the modern workspace,
whether that is at home, in an office or other place of work. Hard
times for organisations generally mean harder times for employees,
often with increased workloads and reduced resources. Being able to
navigate this environment and remain resilient is preferable, but
when stress and anxiety take over you need to know how to boost
your resilience and look after your own well-being. An essential
read for anyone working today, this book focuses on the concept of
agile resilience, exploring how resilience can be learned, chosen,
developed and adapted to help you cope with the range of
circumstances and experiences you may face. It explains what
resilience is, including your own personal take on that, what might
deplete it, the impact of Covid-19, and how you can maintain or
replenish it when necessary in order to thrive in your work and
life.
Focusing on empathy as a key tool, this book examines the impact of
hybrid working on staff mental health and how business leaders,
managers, coaches and mentors can create a positive and motivated
hybrid workforce. Part of the Business in Mind series, it is for
anyone who is managing remote workers, whether individuals or
teams. As the world of work has changed drastically since the
Covid-19 pandemic with more staff working from home, the importance
of nurturing staff well-being is more important than ever. Even
though businesses are seeing the benefits of working at home, it
can also create challenges. With the latest research and
studies, this book explores practical ideas for finding the right
working model and how to develop an appropriate leadership style.
Uniquely, it discusses the neuroscience of stress to identify ways
to improve workers' mental health and inform how managers can use
this to create a positive work environment.
The KEY book for both practitioners and students. Ideal for coaches
working primarily non-directively who want to develop their
practice by assimilating ideas from a range of approaches.
Therapies such as cognitive behavioural coaching, neuro-linguistic
programming (NLP) and Gestalt are examined and the author
demonstrates how some of the key principles of these can be used or
adapted. The book also looks at how non-directive coaching skills
might be applied in a number of other fields, such as staff
development, supervision and mediation. Reflective questions at the
end of each chapter encourage the reader to think about the key
issues, explore the implications and examine their own experiences.
Suitable for the range of postgraduate courses including MA,
certificate and diploma courses in coaching, as well as for
practitioners.
Is Scottish independence incompatible with ‘Labour values’? Are
‘Labour values’ being realised within the Union? How much
really divides Yes campaigners from Labour voters? Why Not?
Scotland, Labour and Independence is a passionate and often
personal appeal to Labour voters (and other progressive Scots) to
consider the social, economic and political gains that could be won
with Scottish self-government. Bringing together a range of diverse
voices – some from within the Labour Party, some from within the
SNP, some from the non-aligned Left – it presents the social
justice case for a Yes vote and argues that independence offers the
clearest route forward for socialist and centre-left Scotland.
Urgent, original and provocative, Why Not? is a vital contribution
to the independence debate – and essential reading for all Scots.
