Summer Snapshot: Reimagining Work

August 1, 2016 by Christine Jeske 2 Comments

This summer I have been focusing on reimagining work instead of escaping work. I started the summer completing one of the heaviest projects of my life, my dissertation. PhD in hand, I spent a good few weeks reflecting on how to “come out of the tunnel” after an intense academic year.

Scholar’s Compass: Remembering Sabbath

November 2, 2014 by Mark Hansard No Comments

We live in an age in which production is cherished above nearly everything else in the workplace. How can we be counter-cultural in this day and age in which our work follows us with our smart-phones everywhere we go? One way is to keep a 24 hour Sabbath.
