Описание: The Unconscious at Work, 2nd Edition draws on a body of thinking and practice which has developed over the past 60 years, often referred to as `the Tavistock approach` or `systems-psychodynamics`.
The inspiring story of a man who works tirelessly to bring hope, dignity, and livelihoods to refugees in Rwanda--and encouragement for anyone who wants to rise above their own circumstances and find purpose in helping others.
Finally living in his native Rwanda after the 1994 Genocide Against the Tutsi, Patrick Karangwa answered a calling to start an organization that would foster peace and reconciliation, and empower the youth. In 2012, when he saw an influx of Congolese refugees entering Rwanda to escape armed conflict, his vision expanded. He knew he could help them with the compassion they needed, because he had once been a refugee himself.
In Finding Purpose in Challenging Times, Karangwa shares the story of his journey from life as a young man born and raised in Uganda, to founder and CEO of an NGO that has grown to serve tens of thousands of refugees and other vulnerable communities in Rwanda and beyond.
If you want to make a difference in the world, this book will inspire you to believe in your own potential--no matter what your current circumstances are--and to experience the joy of helping others with compassion, faith, and best practices.

Описание: This book aims to present an alternative view of humanitarian action. It adds to current conversations and dilemmas within the humanitarian sphere by departing from traditional views that consider humanitarian interventions as a concrete human activity aimed at providing relief to disaster victims. Much differently, it invokes the idea that humanitarian action is also a cognitive process. In this process, both humanitarians and disaster survivors alike, unknowingly, apply historically, societally, and culturally defined symbolic constructions to make sense of post-disaster information and to make decisions. In the specific case of humanitarian workers, these symbolic constructions influence how they understand their post-disaster reality, including how they relate to those they consider to be in pain or distress. This way of looking at humanitarian action builds upon a robust theoretical framework called Institutional Logics, which helps us identify and interpret how individuals make sense of their reality. So it brings the complex world of the individual into a discussion that generally considers the organization as the unit of analysis. Studying humanitarian action through this alternative lens makes it easy to see that objective and verifiable post-disaster information is a necessary but not a sufficient condition to design humanitarian interventions, let alone assess their value and benefits. A Symbolic Approach to Humanitarian Action: It Takes One to Know One aims to bridge the gap between research and practice in humanitarian action by translating academic knowledge into an accessible format that can be used by practitioners to improve their work on the ground.

Описание: This book offers deep insights into the functioning of humanitarian organizations (HOs) from a managerial perspective. Presenting an in-depth case study on the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC), it demonstrates how HOs can professionalize the management of their operations by adapting the institutional logic of private corporations and applying their tools and frameworks in the context of a non-profit-organization. The authors discuss the advantages of effective stakeholder and change management for HOs, as well as the tensions caused by conflicting institutional logics and ethical conflicts that arise as a result of a violation of the principles of an HO. The book appeals to anyone interested in managing non-governmental organizations more effectively.
