Why should researchers be interested in their feelings and emotions as they carry out research? Emotion is what it is to exist, to be human, and is present in every sphere of our lives. All activities are infused with emotion, even those that are constructed as 'rational', because rationality and emotionality are interpenetrated and entwined because all thinking is tinged with feeling, and all feeling is tinged with thinking.
This book illuminates the emotional processes of doing social and organizational research, and the implications of this for the outcomes of research. With contributions from leading academics and research practitioners, it addresses the significant issue of the sometimes intense emotional experiences involved in doing research and the implications it has for the theory and practice of social research. By examining the nature of feelings and emotions, it explores how we might understand researchers' emotions and experiences, and considers the often powerful feelings encountered in a variety of research contexts. Topics discussed include: power relations; psycho-social explanations of researcher emotions; paradoxical relations with research participants and the sometimes disturbing data that is gained; research supervision; the politics of research; gender; publishing, undergoing vivas and presenting at conferences.
This book will therefore be a valuable companion to researchers and research students from the start of their career onwards.

Most leadership books focus on the leadership of individual organisations, leadership of complexity, and of change. They assume that we are independent from one another (we’re not) and we can stand outside the flow of events, the pattern of behaviours (we can’t).
As the Covid-19 pandemic has dramatically shown, we’re in complexity and change, and, whether we like it or not, we’re in it together. This book considers leadership in organisational systems, leadership in complexity, leadership in change. It is a small, but incredibly important distinction.
'Leadership in Complexity and Change' draws on complexity science to paint a picture of a world in constant motion, where leadership is enacted in-the-midst of complexity and continuous change. Part One brings complexity science to life by considering the practical challenges of complexity and its implications for leadership. Part Two then considers how leaders can reinvigorate existing tools and approaches with a new mindset, before offering some new tools and techniques for leadership in complexity and change. Part Three concludes by considering the practice and practices of leadership in complexity and change. The key ideas in this book are brought to life through mini-cases and practical examples, which are embedded throughout the book.
When I was studying for my Masters’ and first came across complexity science, this book was the kind of book I desperately wanted to read. I wanted to understand the implications of complexity science for organisation science and for leadership practice. I wanted to find something that broke through the unfamiliar terminology, imported from multiple disciplines, to make complexity science accessible and applicable. The problem was that the translation of complexity science to organisation science was in its infancy. The rigorous academic work required to translate insights from the physical world to the social world was embryonic. So, while complexity science provided a rich source of inspiration for writers in leadership and organisations, the application was often loose and ungrounded.
My journey has taken me from a practical problem (how to lead change in a complex organisation), to in-depth research in real organisational contexts, and widespread application of those insights to address practical problems of leadership and change. For over 15 years, I have used practice and theory to inform one another.
I have now written the book that I wanted to read. It presents complexity straightforwardly without dumbing it down. It is designed to help leaders, managers, and professionals to apply complexity thinking and tools to inform and evolve their leadership and change practice.

Описание: Drawing on the experiences of six expatriate leaders who, collectively, had more than 78 years of experience managing United States Agency for International Development (USAID) international development projects in 26 countries around the world, this book provides a scholarly analysis of their stories, identifies factors expatriate leaders experienced managing projects, then integrates the factors into a theory that explains and helps define the success, or lack thereof, they achieved, and provides recommendations on how to deal with and overcome the issues.
For decades, international development projects have played a crucial role in the delivery of U.S. foreign aid and yet, while considerable attention has been given to policymakers' foreign aid decisions concerning which countries receive U.S. foreign aid and how much each country receives, scant attention has been given to understanding the challenges encountered by the expatriate leaders recruited to manage the implementation of these international development projects, which unfold within a confluence of diverse multi-organizational contexts and culturally complex developing country environments. Even less is known about what factors these expatriate leaders experience that could explain, and help define, the success, or lack thereof, they achieve managing the implementation of these projects.
This book is essential reading for international development leaders, practitioners, and scholars, as well as foreign aid policymakers, as they seek to improve international development.

Описание:
When faced with complex challenges or uncertain outcomes, many leaders believe that if they are smart enough, work hard enough, or turn to the best management tools, they will be able to find the right answer, predict and plan for the future, and break down tasks to produce controllable results. But what are leaders to do when this isn't the case?
Rather than offering one-size-fits-all tips and tricks drawn from the realm of business as usual, Simple Habits for Complex Times provides three integral practices that enable leaders to navigate the unknown. By taking multiple perspectives, asking different questions, and seeing more of their system, leaders can better understand themselves, their roles, and the world around them. They can become more nimble, respond with agility, and guide their organizations to thrive in an ever-shifting business landscape. The more leaders use these simple habits, the more they enhance their performance and solve increasingly common, sticky business issues with greater acumen.
Whether in large or small organizations, in government or the private sector, in the U.S. or overseas, leaders will turn to this book as a companion that helps them grow into the best version of themselves.
