About a month ago, I talked with Marquita Gooch, host of the Black in the Stacks podcast. In the episode, we candidly discussed navigating and recovering from workplace harm. In addition to sharing our own experiences, we also talked about recovery pathways, including the importance of community support, acknowledging grief, and the role of self-preservation.
The episode has launched, so listen in and consider your own responses to the reflections we share, including:
- How workplace harm impacts library employee retention;
- Differences between burnout and low-morale experiences;
- The role of systems in low-morale experiences;
- Default communication modes in the LIS field;
- Additional Low-Morale Experience Impact Factors in the Black, Indigenous, and People of Color;
- The importance of honoring your intuition, reframing your power, and reclaiming your energy as you heal;
- Promoting beneficence in library practice…and more!
Are you ready to begin or expand your recovery from workplace harm and neglect? Do you need focused and empathetic support? Let’s set up a Connection Call!
