Williams S: Crises at Work

Crises at Work

Economy, Climate and Pandemic

Bring rhythm, relevance, and better retention to your next training.
&nbsp;
What do L&amp;D professionals and hip-hop artists have in common? Both face skeptical, diverse audiences and operate within strict time constraints in environments that are full of distractions. In Facilitation in VERSE, learning strategist Tekeisha Zimmerman shares a framework to address those challenges in five stages: Vibe, Engage, Reveal, Spin, and End. The framework draws upon proven &nbsp;techniques to engage learners inspired by hip-hop, including:
&nbsp;
<ul>
<li>Call and response</li>
<li>Storytelling for emotional connection</li>
<li>Repetition</li>
<li>Intentional language</li>
<li>Memorable takeaways</li>
</ul>
&nbsp;
The VERSE framework directly addresses challenges learning designers and facilitators face every day, including high resistance and pressure to demonstrate measurable behavior change. The book is packed with practical templates, decision matrices, sample scripts, and self-assessments to help instructional designers and facilitators implement the framework. Readers also receive free access to an AI-powered coach that lets them practice applying VERSE in real time, working through scenarios and refining their approach whenever they need it—long after finishing the book.
&nbsp;
The best trainers and hip-hop artists know that connection is what makes a message work. Facilitation in VERSE shows you how to create learning experiences that resonate in the moment and leave a lasting impression.

The Essential Guide to Handling Workplace Harassment & Discrimination

Every year, American organizations spend $365 billion on workplace conflict. Most of it is completely preventable. The typical organization treats conflict like a building fire — wait until something's burning, then scramble to put it out. The result is lost productivity, damaged relationships, legal exposure, leadership burnout, and a revolving door of talent that never seems to stop spinning.There's a better way.In Conflict-Ready, the experts at the High Conflict Institute — who have trained thousands of leaders across corporations, small businesses, government agencies, and nonprofits — reveal why reactive conflict management is a losing game, and what it looks like to build an organization that's prepared before the first spark flies.This isn't about eliminating conflict. It's about baking a smarter, more proactive approach directly into your culture, your systems, and your leadership — so that when high conflict personalities, charged situations, and difficult dynamics inevitably show up, your organization knows exactly what to do.You'll learn how to recognize the patterns that escalate conflict before they explode, develop the organizational habits and structures that defuse tension early, equip your managers and HR teams with the skills of the most conflict-competent leaders, and shift your entire organization from firefighting mode to conflict-ready.The organizations winning today aren't the ones that avoid conflict. They're the ones that are ready for it.

Your Playbook for Designing a Winning Workplace Culture
Most organizations are losing the talent engagement game, and many don’t even know they’re playing it. Gallup’s 2026 State of the Global Workplace shows that only 1 in 5 employees are engaged at work. Game of Engagement offers a fresh solution to what leaders consistently identify as a critical challenge: how to create a workplace culture that sustains employee commitment, energy, motivation, and performance over the long term. Blair Bloomston’s unexpected solution is designing your workplace culture so that everyone wins.
Bloomston’s strategic LIFT Framework is a practical approach to developing a workplace culture in which employee engagement thrives. Inspired by principles of game design, the framework helps leaders intentionally shape four key elements that influence how people think, feel, connect, and contribute at work:
<ul>
<li>Language defines what your culture stands for and whether people believe it.</li>
<li>Influence shapes what work feels like, from outer incentives to inner motivation.</li>
<li>Fellowship determines whether people see each other as teammates or opponents.</li>
<li>Traction takes repeatable actions and transforms them from simple engagement into lasting results.</li>
</ul>
Bloomston draws on vivid, high-stakes stories from her work with world-class sports teams, government organizations, the military, and elite global corporations, demonstrating how the game of engagement plays out in every type of workplace to drive motivation, buy-in, and results.
Your workplace culture already operates like a game of engagement. Become the leader who designs a game people want to play to win.

How Leaders Can Create a Winning Culture at Work

Game of Engagement

In 2007, as the first iPhone launched, I was a young retail leader on the front lines of what would become one of the most transformative technological revolutions in history. Customers waited for hours to secure their new device only to return days later furious that networks had failed under unprecedented demand. Inside stores, no answers were quick or easy. There was pressure, confusion, and a leadership playbook that no longer seemed to work. It was an inflection point not just for technology, but for leadership. The Hope Advantage begins in this moment and expands to confront the reality every leader now faces. No longer is change episodic; it is constant, exponential, and it impacts every area of life. The conditions once described as volatile, uncertain, complex and ambiguous are no longer exceptions to the rule; they are the operating environment. But the change itself is not the problem. We've lost the belief in our ability to shape what comes next. When you believe a better future is possible, that you have the power to help create it, and that you don't need a perfect plan to start, this is hope--a practical leadership framework built on the three interconnected disciplines of Direction, Ownership, and Movement. Blending behavioral science, leadership philosophy, and lived executive experience, The Hope Advantage introduces a distinct and timely thesis that belief, not strategy, is the primary hurdle to change. It offers leaders not just a new way to think, but a practical framework immediately applicable to the transformations they're already implementing.

Simple, Sound Measurement for Real-World Learning
Are you an L&amp;D practitioner who is avoiding measurement, analytics, and reporting because it all seems too complex, too time-consuming—or just plain intimidating? Most new L&amp;D practitioners know how valuable measurement is, but few know how to do it well or how to make sure the results matter to decision makers. In Measurement Simplified, David Vance and Peggy Parskey cut to the heart of the matter, sharing their expertise with beginners—and anyone who needs a no-nonsense refresher. They explain:
<ul>
<li>How measurement works</li>
<li>Why it’s worth the investment</li>
<li>How to do it efficiently and effectively</li>
</ul>
They walk through the most valuable measures at the course level and the department level, making sure to explain each concept in a way that is accessible and useful for novices. And they make the case for implementing smart measurement and reporting processes that will help your learning function run more like a business.
A fast and friendly on-ramp to the topic, Measurement Simplified still maintains the key insights of Vance and Parskey’s comprehensive classic, Measurement Demystified. This compact new guide offers all the knowledge and tools you need to make practical, evidence-based decisions, ensuring that you measure what matters and elevate the role of learning in your organization.

The Change Most Companies Get Wrong Most change efforts fail for the same reason. Leaders pour their energy into the process and overlook the people who have to carry it out. New software gets installed and new workflows get drawn up, and within weeks the team drifts back to the old way of doing things. Allan Breidenbach spent more than a decade building a better way. As president of a seventy-year-old, employee-owned manufacturer, he created the RATCHET-UP system, a nine-step method that puts people at the center of every change. In RATCHET-UP, you will learn how to: <ul> <li>Earn the standing and trust that make real change possible</li> <li>Get a team genuinely aligned instead of just nodding along</li> <li>Recognize where technology helps and where it only adds friction</li> <li>Spot and address the people quietly undermining progress</li> <li>Measure profit in more than dollars</li> </ul> Filled with real stories from the shop floor and free of consultant jargon, this book gives leaders in any industry a clear, practical way to make change that lasts.

Across clinics, classrooms, city halls, and financial systems, women continue doing the uncredited work of governing AI: deciding when systems can be trusted, paused, refused, and repaired. Governing the Default names this work as relational governance, demonstrating how leaders can turn critique of AI's extractive norms into operational practice. Bringing together industry and academic contributors, the volume reframes organizational care as governance designed into decision rights, feedback loops, oversight, and repair. Its copy-ready practices help leaders, educators, and policymakers replace opaque defaults with consent-first, benefit-sharing, repair-ready systems.

Are digital technologies really a silver bullet for development in the Global South?


Digital technologies are supposed to solve the challenges of climate change, projected population growth, land conflicts and food insecurity, especially in rural areas. Yet NGOs, government institutions, and private companies are increasingly adopting a trial-and-error approach as they recognize the limitations of transferring Western science and technologies to the global South.
 
This book presents the ambivalent practices and implications of digital pilot projects which aim to 'develop' both farming communities and locally adapted innovations in East Africa. Inspired by laboratory ethnographies in Science and Technology Studies, it explores the practices of testing and developing digital technologies in rural Tanzania. The multi-sited ethnography, which takes in agricultural fairs, conferences, documents, online courses, tech hubs, project offices, villages and fields, centres on three case studies, namely DAST (a digital land-formalisation tool), STAS (an AI system for agricultural productivity) and iPlus (an e-extension tool). Rather than viewing these technologies simply as welcome tools to promote connectivity, empowerment and increased production - as commonly advanced in development policy - this book foregrounds the (un)intended consequences of the planning, set-up, maintenance and results of digital pilot projects. Against the backdrop of conflicting logics between testing technologies and developing Tanzanian agriculture through them, this book considers their (un)predictable impacts on new actors, the character of development and the trial communities in rural Tanzania.
