Uniform Title: Europa schreibt. English.

Content: Democracy thrives on social dialogue and collective search for solution. As a forum for new ideas and impulses the Körber-Foundation seeks with its projects to involve citizens actively in social discourses. The private, non-profit-making foundation provides a forum for involvement in politics, education, science and international communication. Citizens who take part in competitions and round table discussions organized by the foundation benefit in many ways: they can pass on knowledge, iden ...

Content: Workplaces can often be sources of stress, interfering with both job satisfaction and performance. This book explores ways to combat the factors contributing to an unhealthy workplace by building on the advances in positive psychology and organizational scholarship over the last 15 years. Focusing on ground-breaking concepts such as psychological capital, 'happiness compassion', virtuousness, support and gratitude, this book offers ways to target and reshape the unhealthy workplace environment. Each chapter provides real-life organizational situations in which companies of all sizes implement strategies that either hinder or successfully create a healthy workplace environment. The world-leading authors identify key causes that reduce employee satisfaction and job performance, offering a range of interventions that can prevent negative experiences to ultimately produce happier workforces and boost productivity. This book will be a vital reference for doctoral students studying the links between work and health as well as faculty studying ways to improve employee well-being. Those on advanced courses in human resource management, organization effectiveness and organizational change will also benefit from the vast array of international insights into a healthy workplace environment.

Series Statement: Research in personnel and human resources management ; 40

Content: Volume 40 of Research in Personnel and Human Resources Management offers several original scholarly contributions written by thought leaders in the field of human resources management. These chapters feature the latest research exploring emerging new areas of HRM management. Chapters include analysis of "other-rating" alternatives to traditional self-survey information gathering, how governance mechanisms might be utilized to help firms achieve a balance between alignment and disruption, multi-stakeholder approaches to constructive deviance in the workplace, and how thoughtfully constructed incentives can be used to improve other outcomes such as safety, quality, prosocial behaviors, and creativity.

Note: Chapter 1. Unlocking the potential of other-ratings for human resource management research / Jill E. Ellingson and Kristina Tirol-Carmody -- Chapter 2. The human resource ecosystem: Reconciling alignment and disruption / Scott A. Snell, Shad S. Morris, and Brennen Serre -- Chapter 3. Reconstructing constructive deviance: The development of a positive employee model for human resource management / John E. Baur -- Chapter 4. Beyond productivity: Incentive effects on alternative outcomes / Tae-Youn Park, Reed Eaglesham, Jason D. Shaw, and M. Diane Burton -- Chapter 5. The data are coming! Reconceptualizing big data for the organizational sciences / Michael Howe, James K. Summers, and Jacob A. Holwerda -- Chapter 6. The "why" and "how" of human resource (hr) practices: A critical review of the antecedents and consequences of employee hr attributions research / Dishi Hu and In-Sue Oh -- Chapter 7. Building thriving workforces from the top down: A call and research agenda for organizations to proactively support employee well-being / Allison S. Gabriel, David F. Arena Jr. ,Charles Calderwood ,Joanna Tochman Campbell, Nitya Chawla, Emily S. Corwin, Maira E. Ezerins, Kristen P. Jones, Anthony C. Klotz, Jeffrey D. Larson, Angelica Leigh, Rebecca L.

Content: Newfoundlanders have long and lustily sung their folksongs, and the tradition remains strong today. Despite modern influences, the old songs persist, mixed with new songs that are composed to record the events of our time. This is the first major collection of Newfoundland folksongs compiled and edited by native Newfoundlanders. It concentrates on songs of local composition largely ignored by earlier collectors and presents a significant number of songs never before published.For most of the last decade Lehr and Best have been travelling around the island recording the voices and favourite songs of anyone, young and old, who would perform. Recordings took place in family kitchens, on stage heads, and in trap stores while the singer knitted twine or repaired lobster pots, aboard ships at anchor or en route to some small deserted harbour. Humming engines, blowing oilstoves, or clattering supper dishes provided accompaniment.The 120 songs collected here by Lehr and Best have been transcribed by Pamela Morgan and illustrated by Elly Cohen. Some recall the distant past of a long and rich seafaring tradition; others tell of such recent tragedies as the displacement of outport people and the sinking of the Ocean Ranger. The selection represents the state of the folk-song in Newfoundland today; in some part it documents what is lost and forgotten, but it also celebrates what has survived, and thrives.
