Beyond the Call of Duty: Exploring the Prevalence and Consequences of Self-Sacrifice by Academic Library Leaders
No full textIn the face of limited resources and increasing demand, academic library supervisors often sacrifice their own time and energy to support employees’ well-being. Self-sacrificial behavior includes taking on additional responsibilities, being especially “visible” during crises, and supporting the emotional, physical, or financial needs of employees. Most research on self-sacrificial leadership highlights its positive impact on organizational culture. But how does it impact library leaders’ mental health, job satisfaction, and/or attrition? This presentation explores self-sacrificial behavior and concludes with a discussion of strategies to reset the balance when leaders find themselves going above and beyond at their own expense
Discussing Race and Racism with Young Children: A Qualitative Longitudinal Investigation
No full textRacial socialization, a process in which parents communicate beliefs and values about children’s race and cultural backgrounds to help children prepare for their current and future social interactions, has lasting effects on child development. Understanding the extent to which children understand race in the context of racialized violence, and the extent to which parents are willing to engage their children in such conversations, is critical for professionals who work with and support families through these challenging contexts. Existing evidence suggests parents in racially minoritized groups often put more conscious efforts into racial socialization than their White parent peers. Although recent years have witnessed increasing attention to exploring White parents’ racial socialization beliefs and strategies, much of this work has occurred with older children and their parents. Understanding of racial socialization with young children remains limited. We followed 20 predominantly White families of young children (ages 3–6) over time across two years (2019 fall and 2020 summer) and elicited parents’ experiences and perspectives in discussing race. Inductive analysis using a grounded theory approach with peer debriefing helped us generate three major themes and a theoretical model. We found that (1) there were various levels of efforts to engage in color conscious socialization among parents of young children. Importantly, these efforts were often shaped by (2) the variable levels of parents’ (un)certainty, focus, and interpretation of current events in consideration of their child’s own characteristics in addition to (3) parents’ social locations including but not limited to their childhood, current family and social relationships, and their educational background and occupation. Practical and policy implications are discussed to provide resources at various ecological levels to support parents’ efforts
