Book Description
The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between nurses' structural empowerment status and their job stress and job burnout (case study: Nurses in government hospitals in Tehran). Structural empowerment is an internal motivating factor that reflect the active role of employees in the organization. Working environment with support are the most important factor in creating job satisfaction in nurses. Nursing managers, with the knowledge of the results of this research, can provide an appropriate work environment for nurses with increasing organizational support. Considering that burnout deduces the quality of nursing care and decrease patient satisfaction, stress prevention has been effective in improving nursing care and increasing patient satisfaction and reducing the occupational stress of nurses and preventing burnout in the workplace.

Book Description
This is the first practical guide for nurses on how to incorporate the knowledge, skills, and tools of Strength-Based Nursing Care (SBC) into everyday practice. The text, based on a model developed by the McGill University Nursing Program, signifies a paradigm shift from a deficit-based model to one that focuses on individual, family, and community strengths as a cornerstone of effective nursing care. The book develops the theoretical foundations underlying SBC, promotes the acquisition of fundamental skills needed for SBC practice, and offers specific strategies, techniques, and tools for identifying strengths and harnessing them to facilitate healing and health. The testimony of 46 nurses demonstrates how SBC can be effectively used in multiple settings across the lifespan.

Book Description
Burnout has been theorized as occurring within the early years of a career. Role stress, which has three components; role ambiguity, role conflict and role overload, has been identified in new graduate nurses and has been positively correlated with burnout in the empirical literature. Empowerment has an inverse relationship with burnout. Support for these hypothesized relationships in newly graduated nurses has been demonstrated in research conducted in other countries. The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship among role stress, empowerment, and burnout in newly graduated nurses with two years of experience or less working in acute care hospitals. A descriptive correlational research design was utilized to examine the hypothesized relationships in a sample of 107 newly graduated nurses. Participants responded to questions online from various instruments which measured role stress, empowerment and burnout. All three role stress variables had significant positive correlations with burnout and empowerment had a significant inverse correlation with burnout. Regression analysis was used to test the hypotheses that empowerment would moderate the relationship between each of the role stress variables and burnout. In this study, 75% of new graduates reported burnout and the moderation model was not supported. Researchers have identified the presence of burnout in newly graduated nurses and the negative impact on the nurse, the patient, the organization and the profession. The findings from this study suggest that health care organizations need to examine and if necessary, improve their work environments. It may be less costly for hospitals to implement strategies to decrease burnout among new graduates such as establishment of an empowering work environment, elimination of role ambiguity, prevention of role conflict and reduction of role overload that are supported in the literature rather than absorb the costly financial impact of burnout.

Book Description
This dissertation examined the interrelationship of organizational culture; macro (structural) and micro (psychological) empowerment; and job satisfaction. Specifically, this dissertation: (1) built upon the insights and framework of prior research literature that suggest the relationship of macro (structural) and micro (psychological) empowerment and its effect on job satisfaction (2) expanded existing empowerment models by introducing organizational culture as an influential organizational phenomenon (3) assessed the level of degree how organizational subculture groups perceive organizational culture, macro (structural) and micro (psychological) empowerment; and job satisfaction contextual attributes. The dissertation utilized mixed method research combining both a quantitative and qualitative study with a triangulation of methods. The quantitative study employed a sample of 258 federal government employees and used hierarchical linear modeling techniques, multiple regression, hierarchical regression analysis, and independent T-test of sample means to test for main and mediator effects. The qualitative study employed a sample of 69 federal government employees and used open-ended content analysis to analyze data. Results from the quantitative study revealed that there are strong and positive relationships of organizational culture; macro empowerment, micro empowerment; and job satisfaction. Further, the quantitative study revealed that occupational subculture influences the level of perception of organizational culture; macro and micro empowerment; and job satisfaction. Results from the qualitative study provided rich and robust descriptive results complementing the quantitative study.

Hardiness is the pattern of attitudes and skills that provides the courage and strategies that helps people be resilient by turning potential disasters into growth opportunities and fulfillment, thereby enhancing their performance, sense of fulfillment, and health.

Book Description
The blockbuster best seller Primal Leadership introduced us to "resonant" leaders--individuals who manage their own and others' emotions in ways that drive success. Leaders everywhere recognized the validity of resonant leadership, but struggled with how to achieve and sustain resonance amid the relentless demands of work and life. Now, Richard Boyatzis and Annie McKee provide an indispensable guide to overcoming the vicious cycle of stress, sacrifice, and dissonance that afflicts many leaders. Drawing from extensive multidisciplinary research and real-life stories, Resonant Leadership offers a field-tested framework for creating the resonance that fuels great leadership. Rather than constantly sacrificing themselves to workplace demands, leaders can manage the cycle using specific techniques to combat stress, avoid burnout, and renew themselves physically, mentally, and emotionally. The book reveals that the path to resonance is through mindfulness, hope, and compassion and shows how intentionally employing these qualities creates effective and enduring leadership. Great leaders are resonant leaders. Resonant Leadership offers the inspiration--and tools--to spark and sustain resonance in ourselves and in those we lead.
