SHORT ANSWERS

157. Define stress and briefly discuss its prevalence in the workplace.

Stress is the body’s reaction to a change that requires a physical, mental, or

emotional adjustment or response. Today, stress is inevitable and everywhere.
While we can’t change stress, we can change the manner in which we respond
to it.

Polls indicate that 65% of American workers report stress at work as an issue for
them. Stress in the workplace is manifested through such physical effects as
neck pain, aching muscles and insomnia.

158. Describe each phase of Hans Selye’s General Adaptation Syndrome.

Phase one is the alarm phase where an outside stressor jolts the individual
insisting that something be done. This is the well- known “fight or flight”
response.

Phase two is resistance, the phase where the body begins to release cortisol and
draws on fats and sugars for energy to adjust to the demands of stress. While the
body can draw on its reserves to hold off stress for a while, it cannot continue in
this state forever.

Phase three is the exhaustion phase where the body’s stores of fats and sugars
are depleted and the prolonged release of cortisol has weakened the body
considerably. To cope, many individuals reach for something sweet to restore the
sugars.

159. Name two workplace stressors and give an example of each.

Workplace stressors include: role demands (role ambiguity, role overload, role
conflict), and information overload.

Role ambiguity is the vagueness one feels about what responsibilities he holds.
For example, when you begin a new job, you are often unclear what you are
supposed to do.

©201 FlatWorld. 23
 Role conflict is when you have contradictory demands made on you at work. For
example, your boss wants you to complete your project for next week while your
team supervisor wants his project completed first.

Role overload is when you have insufficient time and resources to complete your
job. For example, if you are doing your job and covering for an individual who is
out on medical leave, you may feel pulled in many directions.

Information overload is simply the processing demands made on individuals

where the time required to complete the tasks far exceeds the amount of time
actually available. The number of emails many individuals receive in one day
often far exceeds the amount of time available for responding.

160. Name two life stressors and give examples of each.

Life stressors include: work-life conflict, life changes, and downsizing.

Work-life conflict is experienced when the demands from work and family
negatively impact one another. An example is when you need to attend a work
function and you have sick child at home to care for.

Life changes are events that stress an individual. Life changes can be negative
(the death of a spouse) or positive (getting married). Though each produces
stress, the negative event produces distress and the positive events, eustress.
The Holmes-Rahe Scale provides various life events with values that express the
stress experienced.

Downsizing is when firms decide to become smaller often through physical,

product and employee means. Currently, many firms are downsizing to stay
competitive in the worsening economy.

161. Describe two physiological outcomes of stress.

Stress can be manifested internally as nervousness, tension, anger or irritability.

It can also be manifested externally through skin conditions and sweating.

Because stress causes a suppression of the immune system, there are links
between stress and high blood pressure, ulcers and illness susceptibility.

162. Name two psychological outcomes of stress.

Anxiety and depression are two psychological outcomes of stress.

Also, burnout is an outcome of prolonged stress that is exhibited in the

workplace.

163. What does research suggest about the relationship between stress and
workplace outcomes?

©201 FlatWorld. 24
 Stress is linked to higher turnover and lower levels of performance. Stressed
individuals also tend to be less prone to engaging in organizational citizenship
behaviors and to exhibit lower organization commitment.

164. Differentiate between a Type A personality and a Type B personality.

A Type A personality is a person who displays high levels of speed/impatience,

job involvement and hard-driving competitiveness.

Type B personalities are calmer than Type A personalities who are more prone to
thinking through situations than their Type A counterparts who tend to respond
emotionally.

165. Name and describe two individual approaches to managing stress.

The individual approaches to managing stress include: The corporate athlete

concept, flow, diet, exercise, detachment and relaxation, mindfulness and
meditation, psychological coping, social support networks and time management.

The corporate athlete is training so that the employee is healthy in mind and
body and embraces challenges versus avoiding them.

Flow is the concept of totally immersing yourself in the job.

Social support networks include coworkers, friends and family.

166. Describe the concept of a “corporate athlete.”

The corporate athlete is an approach to managing stress developed by Jack

Groppel at the University of Illinois. The concept relies on applying principles of
athletic performance to workplace performance. The corporate athlete is thus an
individual who trains his mind and body to perform at peak levels (and under less
stress) due to better eating habits, more focused training and positive action. The
resulting strong mind and body embraces challenges, not avoids them.

167. Name two organizational approaches to managing stress.

Organizational approaches to managing stress include: providing employee

autonomy, fair work environment, providing social support (e.g., supervisor
support for work-life balance), training, telecommuting, sabbaticals, employee
assistance program, and wellness programs.

168. Name two positive emotions.

Positive emotions include joy, love and surprise. These emotions result from
events.

169. Name two negative emotions.

Negative emotions include: anger, fear and sadness.

©201 FlatWorld. 25
170. Describe Affective Events Theory.

Affective Events Theory looks at how events on the job cause different kinds of
people to feel different kinds of emotions.

171. Differentiate between surface, deep and genuine acting.

Surface acting is exhibiting physical signs like smiles to reflect emotions you do
not really feel.

Deep acting is an individual pretending to experience emotions he does not feel.

Genuine acting is when individuals are asked to display emotions aligned with
their own.

172. What is cognitive dissonance?

Cognitive dissonance is a mismatch between emotions, attitudes, beliefs and

behaviors.

Many firms operating in multiple countries find their employees face cognitive
dissonance because of the different business practices within those countries.
For example, in China, to secure permission to talk about land purchases, a
major U.S. company’s executives has to make payments directly to village
leaders. Such scenarios created quite a bit of dissonance for those individuals.

173. Name the four building blocks of Emotional Intelligence, and define each.

The four building blocks are: self-awareness, self-management, social

awareness and relationship management.

Self-awareness is being able to accurately perceive, evaluate and display your

emotions.

Self-management is being able to direct your emotions in a positive way when

needed.

Social awareness is when you are able to understand how others feel.

Relationship management is when you are able to help others manage their own
emotions and establish supportive relationships with others.

ESSAY

174. You are the new Human Resource manager at Lands Corporation. You have just
completed examining a great deal of company data. Turnover is much higher in
Lands Corporation than at its competitors or the industry average. The data that
you analyzed includes a series of transcripts of exit interviews conducted over
the past eight months. Repeatedly you note that past employees describe being
“burned out” and then leaving the firm. What are some areas you can examine to
develop organizational approaches to address and manage stress?

©201 FlatWorld. 26
 There are obviously a host of approaches you can take to help employees
handle stress in Lands Corporation. One starting point might be to look at the
jobs past “burned out” employees were performing. Are the jobs clearly defined?
If the employee does not always know what he is supposed to be doing, he is
more likely to feel stressed.

A second step is to examine those same job descriptions for the amount of
autonomy given to each employee. Stress results when employees feel a lack of
control.

Is the work environment fair, or is your work environment toxic? If the company
does not value its employees and continually creates unfair scenarios for its
employees, stress will result.

Can you find any jobs for which employees are able to telecommute? Working
from home at your own pace obviously reduces stress.

Though universities were the first organizations to widely use employee

sabbaticals, more and more companies have taken to using these programs to
reduce stress and rejuvenate employees.

Employee assistance programs are not just for those experiencing problems with
drugs and alcohol but for those experiencing stress that negatively impacts our
lives.

Once you have analyzed Lands Corporation for these issues, you can begin to
create action plans to address the burnout issue and ultimately the turnover.

175. Your roommate has major stress issues every finals week. She becomes so
upset about her exams and papers that she is almost impossible to live with. You
do not want to see her go through these problems this finals week, so you have
decided to discuss with her various approaches she can adopt that may help
calm her during this time. What are some suggestions you could offer her?

You have just read Jack Groppel’s work on Corporate Athletes. You suggest she
concentrate on her mind and body throughout finals week as well as the weeks
leading up to her exams. Let her know that lower stress levels tend to result
when an individual is concerned about good nutrition, focused training and being
positive in his or her actions.

Help her find an activity in which she can immerse herself. Absorption in an
activity makes the individual feel in control, plus makes her more alert and
strong. Greasy foods make you tired. So, watch the fast foods that students are
prone to eating during finals week (and other times).

Talk to her about exercising. Physical activity enhances mental concentration so

even a walk would reduce her stress.

©201 FlatWorld. 27
 Encourage her to psychologically detach, relax, and get some sleep. Sometimes
it’s best to let go of school or work and take a break. Breaks like this can be
energizing and allow you to refocus when you get back on task. You can’t learn a
semester’s worth of material in one night, so absolutely do not pull an all-nighter.
But even more important, don’t work until the wee hours of the night either. Get
rest, and lots of it.

Rely on her social network. Obviously she has you for support, but let her know
that there are others who share her concerns. Use those others for support.

Encourage her to practice some time management according to the following

guidelines: Write down what she needs to do. Encourage her to cross off those
items she has completed. Have her understand what activities eat up her time.
Does she sit down to read emails and notice it is an hour later before she
finishes? If so, then set up a specific time during the day when she does nothing
but read and respond to emails. But, only complete what she can in a time frame
that is established. For example, set aside 20 minutes and only 20 minutes for
those emails. When the time expires, she should go on to something else.

These steps should help her have a calmer finals week this time around.

176. Meredith just brought her elderly mother to live at her house because of her
mother’s current health problems. What are some options her firm might offer her
to help alleviate the work-life conflict she will inevitably experience?

The most obvious and, perhaps, easiest option a firm could offer, would be a
flexible schedule. Flextime usually requires the employee to work some core
hours and then permits that employee to work the remainder either before the
core time or after.

Telecommuting is a second option that the firm could consider. Again most firms
require a set number of days or hours per week when the employee is physically
working from the office. The remainder of days or hours are worked from home
or other remote location.

Other options include work sharing, family leave among others.

177. Discuss research findings that support the value of an organization’s attention to
stress management programming?

Some of the research findings include:

Work-life conflict leads to lower job and life satisfaction.
Stressors are cumulative and can occur in trends.
Stress can be negative (distress) or positive (eustress).
Downsizing and job insecurity lead to greater stress, alcohol use and lower
performance and creativity.
Stressed individuals have lower organizational commitment.
Stress can lead to internal manifestations like anger and irritability or external
manifestations like high blood pressure and ulcers.

©201 FlatWorld. 28
178. Should we all have a “good cry” sometime to relieve stress? Why or why not?

Though your parents may have told you to “let it all out, have a good cry”, that
may not be the right answer. Research indicates that crying may not be as
helpful as the old adage suggests. There is no evidence to support the
hypothesis that crying improves your mood or health. In fact, one study
suggested that venting only increases negative effects of negative emotions.

Some research suggests that laughter may actually be the best choice. Crying
may intensify negative feelings and suggest to others that the issue really does
bother you. Criers tended to be more depressed, anxious and hostile than those
who did not cry.

179. Describe the Affective Events Theory and illustrate how it operates in
organizations.

Affective Events Theory looks at how events cause different kinds of people to
feel different kinds of emotions.

As an example, imagine that a co-worker unexpectedly brings you some of your

favorite baked goods. You feel happy and surprised. The positive feelings you
are experiencing cause you to want to do something that you had not planned
before. So, you help someone else. The small moments of emotion can influence
your job satisfaction. The more the employee experiences positive emotions, the
more satisfied at work.

180. Define the concept of emotional labor including the three major levels of
emotional labor. Provide a real-world example of each level.

Emotional labor is the regulation of feelings and expressions for organizational

purposes.

Imagine the worst job listed was customer service representative at a firm like
Target. Complaining customers would make life in that job rather difficult.

Imagine one of those customers brought in a damaged good. He is complaining

bitterly. You simply smile and tell him that you have a full return policy up to thirty
days after the purchase. Though the customer is ranting and raving, you are
smiling and practicing surface acting.

Deep acting may be an alternative. In deep acting, you empathize with the
customer. Again, the customer is ranting and raving and you put yourself into his
shoes and actually note that you experienced the same difficulty when you
purchased the same item.

Genuine acting is when individuals are asked to display emotions that are
aligned with their own.

©201 FlatWorld. 29
181. An organizational behavior researcher suggests that not only should mental
intelligence be assessed in each individual, but emotional intelligence should
also be determined. Do you agree?

Answers will vary but most individuals will probably disagree.

Either from a support or opposition viewpoint, the student can discuss the various
building blocks. Self-awareness, step one is something that all individuals should
complete. What are you well versed in, what are your shortcomings? How can
you improve on the negatives and cultivate the positives?

Self-management is the phase where you can direct your emotions in a particular
manner when needed. Again, it is not a problem knowing how to direct and
control your emotions and the relevant aspects of the audience supporting them.

Social awareness is when you are able to understand how others feel. Empathy
is a difficult concept, and may not be something many students will feel is a
necessity.

Relationship management is when you help others manage their emotions. Since
many individuals have difficulty managing their own, this may not be a very
well-supported aspect of the emotional intelligence question.

 CHAPTER I.

(1724-’25-’26-’27.)
singular illustration of the still partially
LOYAL AND
troubled times which followed is DISLOYAL
furnished by a proceeding of Samuel PRINTERS.
Negus, printer. In 1724 he published a
list of all the printers then exercising their craft in
London, and he most humbly laid it before Lord Viscount
Townshend; no doubt, for his guidance. The list is divided into four
parts. The first consists of those ‘known to be well affected to King
George.’ There are thirty-four of these ultra-loyal fellows, with Negus,
of course, among them. The second list is headed ‘Nonjurors;’ in
this, three names are entered, one of which is ‘Bowyer.’ In the third
list, headed, ‘said to be High Flyers,’ there are two and thirty names;
among them are found Alderman Barber (the friend of Swift, of
Bolingbroke and Pope), Richardson (the novelist), and Mist (the
Jacobite and something more!). The fourth list consists of three
names, ‘Roman Catholics.’ Negus was probably a malicious though
loyal busy-body. His list harmed neither Nonjuror nor High Flyer.
When, in 1729, Mr. Speaker Onslow was instrumental in procuring
for Bowyer the printing of the votes of the House of Commons, an
alarmed and loyal Whig asked Mr. Speaker if he was aware that he
was employing a Nonjuror. ‘I am quite sure of this,’ said Onslow, ‘I
am employing a truly honest man.’ There was no lack of them
among Nonjurors, and it is pleasant to find that even the High Flyers
came soon to be looked upon by reasonable Whigs as honourable
men. In 1732 Alderman Barber was elected by his fellow citizens
Lord Mayor of London; and he was the first printer who enjoyed that
dignity. This is the more remarkable, as poor Mrs. Manley, mistress
of the alderman’s house and of the alderman, had bitterly satirised
the Whig Ministry in her ‘New Atalantis.’ But the lady was now dead,
and the High-Flying Barber lost nothing by his old Jacobite opinions.
 In the year 1724, the Nonjurors lost one who had
SACHEVEREL.
been their foremost man till he took the oath of
allegiance; namely Sacheverel. That act of homage to Brunswick
was never forgotten or forgiven by the Jacobites. When Sacheverel
died in the spring of 1724, Hearne could only acknowledge his
boldness and good presence. ‘He delivered a thing better than a
much more modest man, however preferable in learning, could do.’
Hearne sarcastically calls Sacheverel a ‘but,’ and says the best thing
this but ever printed was the speech at his trial, ‘which was none of
his own, but was penned by Dr. Francis Atterbury.’ Hearne’s hardest
hit at this recreant parson is to be found in the following words: ‘He
was but an indifferent scholar, but pretended to a great deal of
honesty, which I could never see in him, since he was the forwardest
to take the oaths, notwithstanding he would formerly be so forward in
speaking for, and drinking the health of, King James III.’
The once famous and audacious Nonjuror, the
HIS DEATH.
friend of Addison when both were young together, lost
caste with the Jacobites without gaining the esteem of the Whigs.
Mist’s High-Flying ‘Weekly Journal,’ of which Sacheverel was once
the Magnus Apollo, recorded his death and burial with no more
ceremony than if he had been an ordinary alderman of no particular
political colour. Perhaps this great reserve showed that sureties
binding Mist to keep the peace were not mere formalities. Not so
with Read and his Whig ‘Weekly.’ On Saturday, June 20, Sacheverel
received therein this charitable notice: ‘Yesterday night was buried,
at St. Andrew’s, Holborn, Dr. Henry Sacheverel, whose virtues are
too notorious to be enlarged upon. One of his most conspicuous
excellences for many years last past was that he got his living in the
high road to—which though through great Mercy he escaped here,
yet some people are so very censorious as to judge,—but this we
look upon to be barbarous and unchristian, and we say we hope the
best, and yet we heartily wish our Hopes were a little better
grounded. However, as there is a good old saying, De mortuis nil nisi
bonum, i.e. “If you speak of the dead, speak in their praise,” and not
being able, upon the strictest enquiry, to find the least commendable
circumstance relating to the Deceased, from his cradle to his coffin,
we choose rather to be silent than uncivil.’
 The doctor seemed to recall his oath of allegiance, when he made
a bequest in his will of 500l. to Atterbury. It was an approval, as far
as the sum went, of the efforts of the ex-prelate to dethrone George
I., and to bring in a Popish sovereign, who was not at all reluctant to
promise especial favours to the Church of England! That Atterbury
was watching events in London is now known, from his
correspondence. In one of his letters from Paris to the Chevalier or
‘King,’ he refers with vexation to the conciliatory course the
Government in London was adopting towards the Jacobites: ‘They
are beginning,’ he says, ‘with Alderman Barber on this head, and
have actually offered him his pardon here for 3,000l., which it shall
not be my fault, if he accepts.’ The ex-Jacobite alderman ‘went over,’
in spite of the Jacobite ex-bishop.
The 30th of January sermons (1725) before the Lords, in the
Abbey, and the Commons, in St. Margaret’s, had now almost ceased
to be political. The former was preached by Waugh, Bishop of
Carlisle, from the Book of Chronicles; the latter, by the Rev. Dr.
Lupton, from 1 Samuel xii. 25, a text which had been much preached
on by expounders on both sides: ‘If ye shall still do wickedly, ye shall
be consumed, both ye and your king.’
Against the king in possession, the Jacobites now A NEW TOAST.
and then flung pointless darts. Mist’s Journal uttered
sarcasms against the Westminster mounted Train Bands,
complimenting the most of them for not tumbling out of their saddles.
The same semi-rebel paper recorded with satisfaction, as a sign of
the Duke of Wharton’s principles, that if the little stranger ‘expected
by the Duchess, proved to be a boy, his name should be James; if a
girl, Clementina;’ or, in other words, the child was to be called after
the King or Queen of England, de jure. Not long after, the bold and
roystering London Jacobites were rapturously drinking a health,
which was given by one guest in the form of ‘Henry,’ to which
another added, ‘Benedict,’ a third named ‘Maria,’ and a fourth raised
his glass to ‘Clement.’ In this form, they greeted the birth of the
second son of the Chevalier de St. George. Some ventured to
(prematurely) speak of him as Duke of York. The Whigs looked upon
