    The book/journal editors of Emerald Publishing are asked to select the Outstanding Author Contribution in each volume, which is a difficult choice. Before the COVID-19 pandemic, the Emerald Literati Awards were handed out in a ceremony at the Academy of Management Meeting. Because that practice ended, we decided to showcase the work of our award winners, beginning with volume 8, who have made very important contributions to the field of global leadership. We were also very curious about the impact of their article and what they would write differently today. Thus, we invited the author/author team to write a short reflective piece broadly related to the questions below

    Teaching Transgender Singers

    Thesis (D.M.A.)--University of Washington, 2017-06The goal of this paper is to provide an accessible resource for voice teachers teaching transgender singers. In order to best serve the students, teachers must be aware of obstacles facing transgender singers, including gender dysphoria and discrimination, legal and social obstacles, and the physical changes associated with hormone replacement therapy. For example, when teaching transgender male singers, it is important to consider the physical changes that occur with the initiation of testosterone, including the lowering of the vocal pitch. Other necessary considerations include navigating the voice during the transition process as well as establishing appropriate registration and resonance strategies after the vocal transition is complete. In contrast, when teaching transgender women singers, it is important to realize that the voice will not experience any permanent changes due to hormone replacement therapy. In order to achieve a more feminine sound in speech, transgender women will likely utilize forward resonance, which can result in vocal fatigue and tension in the vocal mechanism if not guided to do so with vocal health in mind. Necessary considerations include encouraging release in the vocal mechanism and establishing registration and resonance strategies, especially in the higher register. Choice of repertoire for both transgender men and transgender women should prioritize the singer’s comfort level and current vocal ability

    Getting acquainted with social networks and apps: Tumblin’ through the visual web

    No full text
    This article discusses the social media site Tumblr and the visual web and the applications in libraries. Platforms that are part of the visual Web use images, rather than text, as the primary content of a post. Text may appear, but it is secondary to the image, essentially the opposite of a long blog post where the primary content is text with optional pictures placed for emphasis or enhancement. Three social networks in particular – Tumblr, Pinterest and Instagram – each gained more than 10 million visitors over the course of the year in part by catering to a desire for more visually appealing content.This article is (c) Emerald Group Publishing and permission has been granted for this version to appear here (http://dx.doi.org/doi:10.7282/T3HT2R71).
