How to Best Engage and Excite All Employees about HR System and Process Changes?
[Excerpt] Change is a phenomenon that is vital for growth and is constant in all settings. In the context of business, organizations continually change their strategies, culture, structure and processes in response to markets, technological advancements, and legislation.

Union Leadership Development as Driver of Equity and Inclusion
Analysis generated for the research project on Young Workers and the Labor Movement highlighted the need for innovative leadership development if young workers are to be integrated into an increasingly diverse workers’ movement, and unleashed to provide leadership in established institutions that face a radically changing economy and workforce. We examine one successful leadership development program: the New York State AFL-CIO/Cornell Union Leadership Institute. We look at the theoretical underpinnings, development, and outcomes of this multi-union, multi-sector program over the past 17 years, note its impact on the New York regional labor movement, and analyze the key factors accounting for the program’s successful development of innovative-minded young labor leaders. Those factors venturing beyond the traditional “skill-building “ approach of most labor leadership training toward a more transformational model of leadership development; an emphasis on experiential learning, using a variety of learning modes; providing a safe space and what Kurt Lewin describes as “a community of practice” where difficult challenges can be tackled collectively; and using leadership development as a tool to build inclusion and solidarity across many dimensions of difference, including age, race, gender, ethnicity, sector, able-ness, education level, industry, and more
Levels of Abstraction in Legal Thinking
[Excerpt] This article applies the concept of levels of abstraction to legal thinking. Perhaps the most important use of the concept is to constrain judicial lawmaking in a principled way.
Level of abstraction refers to: the numbers of persons and transactions that generate an issue, the numbers of persons and transactions of which a piece of evidence is true, the numbers of persons and transactions to which an argument applies, and the numbers of persons and transactions that are affected by the resolution of an issue.
In general, the more persons and transactions to which an issue and its resolution apply, the higher the level of abstraction of the issue and resolution; and the more persons and transactions of which a piece of evidence is true, or to which an argument applies, the higher the level of abstraction of the evidence
