The Empathetic Workplace - Katharine Manning - Bog - HarperCollins Focus - Plusbog.dk

This critical resource gives managers, HR, and anyone who may come into contact with someone in trauma—including workplace violence, harassment, assault, illness, addiction, fraud, bankruptcy, and more—the tools they need to be prepared for what lies ahead. This book is crucial for every manager or HR representative who shouldn’t just prepare to one day be faced with a report of a traumatic experience at work, but plan on it. This five-step method will help managers make survivors feel supported and understood. The Empathetic Workplace guides supervisors of any level through an understanding of how stories of trauma impact the brain of both the survivor and the listener, as well as the tools to handle the interaction appropriately, to help the listener, the organization, and most importantly, the survivor. The easy-to-follow LASER method outlined in these pages includes the following elements that all managers should know and understand: - Listen-Controlling your own reaction, managing your body language, asking open-ended questions, hearing what is not being said, and winding down the speaker when the conversation becomes unproductive are essential elements in being a good listener. - Acknowledge-Once someone shares a difficult personal story with you, it is important to acknowledge that gift. - Share-You can help the speaker regain some measure of control by sharing information with him or her about what happened or what happens next, your personal or organizational values, and what you don’t yet know but hope to learn. - Empower-You can help the traumatized person by providing him or her with resources that are available to them through the company or outside groups. - Return-The final step is to ensure that the traumatized person has a way to come back later when he or she cannot remember all that you said, thinks of more questions, or wishes for updates. The LASER technique can benefit all who are responsible for others, from top-tier managers at Fortune 500 companies to Residence Advisors in college dormitories.

The Illustrated Compendium of Ugly English Words - Tyler Vendetti - Bog - HarperCollins Focus - Plusbog.dk

The Illustrated Compendium of Ugly English Words - Tyler Vendetti - Bog - HarperCollins Focus - Plusbog.dk

Behold the 300 Ugliest Words in the English Language! Proceed at your own risk! J. R. R. Tolkien once said that cellar door is the most beautiful phrase in the English language; since then it has received quite a bit of attention from poets and linguists. But what of the ugly words? This delightfully humorous volume celebrates the words that make people gag and cover their ears. Too long have these atrocious utterances gone unrecognized, nay, shunned from society. No longer! The Illustrated Compendium of Ugly English Words pays homage to the 300 worst words in existence, such as: Amazeballs (noun) : The public''s opinion on this word can be perfectly encapsulated by a recent Slate article titled Who coined amazeballs and why do they hate humanity? Chunky (adjective) : Chunky (meaning lumpy) is a word so vile, it can make even the most pleasant image sound disgusting. Let''s try. Chunky flower. Chunky chocolate milk. Chunky Jonathan Van Ness. See? Moist (adjective) : Slightly or moderately wet; damp; the linguistic equivalent of stepping in a lukewarm puddle in socks and feeling the water ooze between your toes with every step thereafter. Rural (adjective) : Meaning of the countryside, rural''s definition is not actually gross. Its foulness stems more from its pronunciation, which forces the speaker to make a noise akin to the grunt of a zombie. Worm (noun) : Any type of burrowing, elongated invertebrate with a soft, limbless body. (Is that a description of a real creature or a monster from a nightmare video game? Hard to say.) What makes these words ugly? It''s the nature of the word''s meaning, the pre-existing association the reader has with the word, or the sound and look of the word or all three! The Illustrated Compendium of Ugly English Words catalogs the ugliness from A to Z, along with each word''s pronunciation guide, definition, and origin, plus quotes demonstrating usage. Illustrations on nearly every page of this hardcover make it both a hilarious reference book and the ideal gift for anyone who can''t stand the sound of words like acrid, panties, gubernatorial, ointment, and squirt. More than anything, though, this compendium can be used as a reminder that, despite all of our differences, deep down we all share the same hopes, the same dreams, and the same primal hatred for the terms that make us go, Ugh, why would you even say that?!

The Other Year - Rea Frey - Bog - HarperCollins Focus - Plusbog.dk

The Other Year - Rea Frey - Bog - HarperCollins Focus - Plusbog.dk

2023 Target Book of the Year Finalist Perfect for fans of Rebecca Serle''s One Italian Summer and Josie Silver''s The Two Lives of Lydia Bird . Can the entire course of a life be traced back to a single instant? And can hope be found in every moment after? On a coveted two-week beach vacation, working mom Kate Baker''s nine-year-old daughter, Olivia, vanishes suddenly among the waves--a heart-dropping incident that threatens to uproot her entire reality. But in the next moment, Olivia resurfaces, joyously splashing. What would I do if she didn''t come up? Kate wonders. How would I live without her? In another set of circumstances that hold a different fate, Kate doesn''t have to wonder. Because in that "other" world, in the pulse-pounding seconds after Olivia goes under, she doesn''t come back up. Told in parallel timelines, Kate begins to live two lives--one in which Olivia resurfaces and one in which she doesn''t. In the reality that follows her daughter''s death, she maneuvers through every mother''s worst nightmare, facing grief, rage, and the question of purpose in the aftermath of such profound loss. She endures, day by day, in a world without her daughter. In her alternate timeline, while she explores a tremulous romance with her best friend, Jason, she finds herself grappling with the ex-husband who abandoned Kate and Olivia years prior. Even as Kate scrambles to hold her daughter close, Olivia pulls further away. The line between joy and loss seems to get thinner with each passing day. Woven into a single story, both Kates discover a breathtaking fragility and resilience in their respective journeys. Bringing to light the drastic polarities dire circumstances often create, The Other Year explores truths about love, loss, and the sharp turns any life can take in the blink of an eye. "In this world-altering women''s fiction novel, single mother Kate Baker looks away for a single moment, only to lose sight of her daughter in the ocean. As a result, her world splits into two separate realities: one where she gets to keep being a mother and the other where she doesn''t. The message is clear: Love your people. A tear-jerker with heart." --Brenda Novak, New York Times bestselling author "Tenderly observed and heartfelt. Raw and emotional. The Other Year is sure to strike a chord with readers everywhere." --Josie Silver, New York Times bestselling author - Contemporary women''s fiction - Stand-alone novel - Book length: 95,000 words - Includes discussion questions for book clubs
