Sinopse

Workaholism explores the complex issue of work addiction, distinguishing it from healthy dedication and highlighting its detrimental effects on individuals and organizations. It examines how our always-on culture, fueled by technology, can blur the lines between professional commitment and personal well-being, often leading to increased stress and burnout. The book argues that workaholism is driven by internal compulsions rather than external demands, challenging the notion that long hours automatically equate to success.

The book presents a structured approach, first defining workaholism and exploring its psychological underpinnings, drawing from areas like attachment theory and personality psychology to explain why some individuals are more prone to work addiction. It then examines organizational factors contributing to the problem. For example, workplace culture plays a significant role. Supported by research and case studies from diverse industries, it offers strategies for both individuals and organizations to foster a healthier work-life balance, emphasizing employee well-being and productivity.

Finally, the book provides practical, evidence-based solutions for managing and preventing workaholism. It includes self-assessment tools and coping strategies, empowering readers to recognize and address their own workaholic tendencies. Managers and HR professionals can utilize the book’s insights to cultivate healthier workplace environments and implement policies that support employee well-being. By challenging the glorification of overwork and offering actionable advice, this book serves as a valuable resource for anyone seeking to understand and combat work addiction.

More Human - How the Power of AI...

Rasmus Hougaard, Jacqueline...

AI has the potential to transform leadership and the human experience of work—or to lead us into an automated and uninspiring work reality. Which one will it be? 
 
 
 
Humans have always been good at inventing tools that change the way we live and work—though not always good at adapting to those changes. Consider how the internet has given us instant access to gigabytes of data and yet has made us more distracted. Or how social media has enabled us to be more connected than ever, and yet it can also alienate or isolate us. Will the power of AI create a new era of robotic, impersonal efficiency, or will it catalyze a renaissance, redefining leadership and the world of work? 
 
 
 
So far, that question has mostly prompted a wave of anxiety about the disappearance of jobs and the loss of humanness in our work lives. But as Rasmus Hougaard and Jacqueline Carter show in this essential book, that's a very limited perspective on the impact of AI, leaving out a crucial point: AI has the power to transform leadership for the better—the key is in how leaders use it. 
 
 
 
With deep insight and rigorous research, More Human will help leaders navigate our AI-enabled future.

Dive into the fascinating story...

Vines Graener

Fred, the patriarch and visionary behind the Koch brothers' legacy, blazed a trail in the oil industry. In 1925, his foresight led him to acquire a one-third stake in a Wichita engineering firm, a pivotal move that laid the foundation for the eventual behemoth, Koch Industries. From these modest beginnings, Fred's entrepreneurial spirit set the stage for a family saga marked by astounding success, familial discord, and a profound impact on the American political landscape.
The year 1933 witnessed the union of Fred and Mary Koch, marking the commencement of their familial odyssey. The arrival of their firstborn, Frederick, in 1934, was followed by the birth of Charles in 1935. The family's expansion continued in 1940 with the arrival of fraternal twins, David and Bill, completing the Koch family circle. These formative years were crucial in shaping the dynamics that would later shape the Koch brothers' relationships and individual trajectories.
Despite the burgeoning success of Fred's investments, he was steadfast in his resolve not to raise entitled children. Financial lessons were woven into their upbringing, with the children receiving only a modest allowance for completing household chores. Luxuries deemed unnecessary, such as television, were intentionally excluded from their lives. This deliberate approach aimed to instill in them a strong work ethic, rooted in humility, that would serve as the cornerstone of their future endeavors.
Fred's commitment to molding resilient individuals was further underscored by his emphasis on manual labor and impromptu history lessons at the family dinner table. Through these unconventional but impactful methods, he sought to impart a broader understanding of the world to his children, transcending the traditional bounds of formal education.
