Absolutely: hire well, train, cultivate. What are good examples of NGOs that have successfully hired & promoted leadership to CEO/ED level?

Nice! As to point 2, I have never understood the hesitation to show the full frequency distribution to help inform the participant. The benefits far outweigh perceived risks.

Comment on Is it Better to Hold in or Express Emotions? by Ken Nowack

Ken Nowack — Tue, 24 Aug 2010 16:16:07 +0000

Feeling strong emotions (e.g., anger) or repressing emotions both contribute to the stress response. Acknowledging, processing and putting closure (moving ahead) are the best ways to reverse the chronic stress response to strong emotions that can have a negative impact on our health. This is one reason that practicing meditation, emotional expressive writing and talk therapy all contribute to healthy processing of our emotions leading to both physical health and psychological well-being. So, the key is to learn techniques to reverse the delerious effect of the stress response when we experience emotions (particulary negative ones which seem to create a greater physiological reactivity leading to inflammation, immune suppression, etc.).

I really like this blog Ken…the Pearl Buck quote is pithy and terrific, and your phrase “emotional constipation” is unforgettable. Love it. My question is what does the literature suggest one does with negative emotions when we have them…they are real and I am curious what the suggested healthy response is for managing them. Thanks.

in the twitter/facebook/texing era in which we live, it is nice to know that breadth does not always trump depth. Close relationships with a critical few can make a big difference. Thanks Bill…
