Download or read book Aesthetics Organization and Humanistic Management written by Monika Kostera and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-10-27 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a reaction to the reductionist and exploitative ideas dominating the mainstream contemporary management discourse and practice, and an attempt to broaden the horizons of possibility for both managers and organization scholars. It brings together the scholarly fields of humanistic management and organizational aesthetics, where the former brings in the unshakeable focus on the human condition and concern for dignity, emancipation, and the common good, while the latter promotes reflection, openness, and appreciation for irreducible complexity of existence. It is a journey towards wholeness undertaken by a collective of management and organization theorists, philosophers, artists, and art curators. Reading this book’s contributions can help both academics and practitioners work towards building organizational practices aimed at (re)acquiring wholeness by developing aesthetic awareness allowing for more profound understandings of performativity, insights into the dynamics of power, appreciation of ambiguity and ambivalence, and a much needed grasp of complexity. The varied ways of engaging with art explored by the authors promote imaginative insights into and reflection on the beauty and vicissitudes of organizing, of management knowledge and collective expression. It will be of interest to researchers, academics, practitioners, and students in the fields of organizational theory and practice, business and management history, human resource management, and culture management.

Download or read book The Trick is to Keep Breathing written by Janice Galloway and published by Dalkey Archive Press. This book was released on 1995 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This inventive first novel explores the widespread problem of female depression. A 27-year-old drama teacher named Joy Stone is losing her grip on the world. The problems of everyday living accumulate and begin to torture the narrator, who blames her problems not on her work or on the accidental death of her illict lover, but on herself. She reads horoscopes, plucks hairs, holds conversations inside and outside herself. A terrible memory tries to unfold but is resisted. Family and friends take on monstrous or pitiful guises; food threatens to become a major character. Clutching at the wrong things, the trick is to find those that let life go on. As things seen, things bought, and things said become obsessions, so the author conjures up the homely or horrifying world of litter in which the reader, like the heroine, lives.

Book excerpt: In the Shadow of Death is where it all began — the first book in Deb Pines' traditional whodunit Chautauqua Mysteries featuring the wise and witty reporter sleuth Mimi Goldman. "An Agatha Christie for the text-message age," IndieReader calls the series. In 1997, Brad Hansen, Mimi's landlord, drops dead at a community race Mimi is covering for her new job at the small-town Chautauquan Daily. Natural causes, say the locals. But Mimi, a former New York City tabloid copy editor and pessimistic granddaughter of Holocaust survivors, is suspicious. With help from a hunky ex-boyfriend detective as well as from Mimi's teenage son Jake and Daily colleague Doc Segovian, Mimi starts poking around the peaceful, historic, lakeside summer arts community of Chautauqua. There is no shortage of murder suspects including Hansen's young widow, oddball brother, bitter son and daughter and various grudge-holding tenants. As Mimi starts investigating, someone else turns up dead. So Mimi finds herself in a race of her own to catch the killer . . . before the killer gets her. Fans of Agatha Christie and Louise Penny and "Only Murders in the Building" will enjoy this twist-filled debut about which the Jamestown Post Journal wrote: "If you enjoy an old-fashioned whodunit, it's perfect."
