Leading with Love and Laughter: Letting Go and Getting Real at Work by Zina Sutch & Patrick Malone
Leadership is often seen as a set of skills, not a human connection. Zina Sutch and Patrick Malone argue that effective leadership requires love and laughter. Science supports this, showing that empathy and positive emotions lead to better decisions and motivation. However, traditional leadership training focuses on technical skills, neglecting emotional intelligence. The authors emphasize the importance of caring for employees and fostering a positive work environment. By leading with love and laughter, leaders can build stronger teams, improve performance, and boost morale.
Taking Care of Our Own: When Family Caregivers Do Medical Work by Sherry N. Mong
Mixing personal history, interviewee voices, and academic theory from the fields of care work, the sociology of work, medical sociology, and nursing, Taking Care of Our Own introduces us to the hidden world of family caregivers. Using a multidimensional approach, Sherry N. Mong seeks to understand and analyze the types of skilled work that family caregivers do, the processes through which they learn and negotiate new skills, and the meanings that both caregivers and nurses attach to their care work. Taking Care of Our Own is based on sixty-two in-depth interviews with family caregivers, home and community health care nurses, and other expert observers to provide a lens through which in-home care processes are analyzed, while also exploring how caregivers learn necessary procedures. Further, Mong examines the emotional labor of caregiving, as well as the identities of caregivers and nurses who are key players in the labor process and gives attention to the ways in which the labor is transferred from medical professionals to family caregivers.
