As a clinical psychologist, Dr Nicole LePera found herself frustrated by the limitations of traditional psychotherapy. Wanting more for her patients - and for herself - she began a journey to develop a united philosophy of mental, physical and spiritual health that equips people with the tools necessary to heal themselves. After experiencing the life-changing results herself, she began to share what she'd learned with others - and The Holistic Psychologist was born. Now Dr LePera is ready to share her much-requested protocol with the world. In How to Do the Work, she offers both a manifesto for self-healing and an essential guide to creating a more vibrant, authentic, and joyful life. Drawing on the latest research from both scientific research and healing modalities, Dr LePera helps us recognise how adverse experiences and trauma in childhood live with us, keeping us stuck engaging in patterns of codependency, emotional immaturity, and trauma bonds. Unless addressed, these self-sabotaging behaviours can quickly become cyclical, leaving people feeling unhappy, unfulfilled, and unwell. In How to Do the Work, Dr LePera offers readers the support and tools that will allow them to break free from destructive behaviours to reclaim and recreate their lives. Nothing short ...

An urgent and deeply resonant case for the power of workplace democracy to restore balance between economy and society. What happens to a society-and a planet-when capitalism outgrows democracy? The tensions between democracy and capitalism are longstanding, and they have been laid bare by the social effects of COVID-19. The narrative of "essential workers" has provided thin cover for the fact that society's lowest paid and least empowered continue to work risky jobs that keep our capitalism humming. Democracy has been subjugated by the demands of capitalism. For many, work has become unfair. In Democratize Work, essays from a dozen social scientists-all women-articulate the perils and frustrations of our collective moment, but they also see the current crisis as an opportunity for renewal and transformation. Amid mounting inequalities tied to race, gender, and class-and with huge implications for the ecological fate of the planet-the authors detail how adjustments in how we organize work can lead to sweeping reconciliation. By treating workers as citizens, treating work as something other than an asset, and treating the planet as something to be cared for, a better way is attainable.

To make organizations more fair, many well-meaning individuals and companies invest their time and resources in traditional diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) initiatives. But because inequity is built into the structures, processes, and environments of our workplaces, adding these programs has been ineffective and often becomes a burden passed off to the individuals they are meant to help.

This book brings together the office and office working as an economic construct, as a business function, as a building type and as a mode of work. It explores social and economic relations, and it traces the evolution of work and the environment and equipment needed to support it over the last four hundred years. In so doing it helps to fill a void in popular understanding of the office.The role of the office has been examined over the past three years in ways that it has never been examined before. Whilst the existential crisis arising from Covid-19 has settled somewhat, there remain big questions over the future of office workers and office real estate. This book is a timely, well researched and fascinating contribution to the debate.Rob Harris explores how the nature of work has changed, and continues to change, placing the events surrounding Covid-19 into a longer term perspective and asking what is the future of the office? Will it go through a radical re-invention? How will office work evolve in the future? Whither office buildings? The book emphasises the continuum of change and that todayÂ’s events are simply the latest stage of change, rather than something entirely ... Unknown localization key: "more"

Those who understand how AI thinks are about to win big.We are used to thinking of computers as being a step up from calculators - very good at storing information, and maybe even at playing a logical game like chess.But up to now they haven't been able to think in ways that are intuitive, or respond to questions as a human might. All that has changed, dramatically, in the past few years.Our search engines are becoming answer engines. Artificial intelligence is already revolutionising sectors from education to healthcare to the creative arts.But how does an AI understand sentiment or context? How does it play and win games that have an almost infinite number of moves? And how can we work with AI to produce insights and innovations that are beyond human capacity, from writing code in an instant to unfolding the elaborate 3D puzzles of proteins?We stand at the brink of a historic change that will disrupt society and at the same time create enormous opportunities for those who understand how AI thinks.

Soumrak homo economicus navazuje na úspěšnou Sedláčkovu prvotinu Ekonomie dobra a zla. I v tomto textu nalezneme snahu vrátit ekonomii lidský rozměr a lidem víru v ekonomii. Rozhovor Romana Chlupatého byl natočen v létě 2011 v anglickém Oxfordu pro rozhlasové vysílání. Výsledkem je svěží a srozumitelné zamyšlení nad těžce stravitelnými věcmi. S pomocí inspirativních paralel a metafor ze světa fyziky, biologie či literatury, Sedláček a Orrell pitvají základy systému, nutí k zamyšlení a nabízejí - ale nevnucují - řešení. Při tom, navíc, dokáží čtenáře i pobavit. Tomáš Sedláček, člen Národní ekonomické rady vlády a bývalý poradce Václava Havla, se ovšem tentokrát neobrací ke svým čtenářům jako autor, nýbrž jako diskutér, který rád vede dialog a skrze otázky a odpovědi se pokouší přijít na kloub současné finanční, politické a společenské krizi. Za svého společníka pro diskusi si vybral kanadského matematika a ekonoma Davida Orrella. I on patří k narušitelům starých pořádků, kterým je jasné, že bez kroku do neznáma se skutečného ozdravení nedočkáme. Tomáš Sedláček je patrně nejsledovanějším českým ekonomem současnosti. Díky svým nekonvenčním názorům a schopnosti propojit ekonomii s ostatními obory se v posledních letech prosadil i na mezinárodní scéně. Jeho kniha Ekonomie dobra a zla byla přeložena do 11 ...
