Episode 40 - Emotion at Work in overlooked parts of conversation (AKA Non-lexical Vocalisations)

My guest for this podcast is Dr. Emily Hofstetter and we get into geeky (as is often the case with me) detail about linguistics, conservation analysis and what Emily calls 'non lexical vocialisations'.  A more everyday term would be the non-word noises that feature in interaction.  We talk about how her (and others) research can be really helpful for us to look at talk and conversation in the workplace.     Your references (as always)   around 6 minutes - https://www.streetwisdom.org/   around 12 minutes - Harvey Sacks was mentioned and this is a 1978 paper on turn-taking with Emanuel Schegloff and Gail Jefferson  https://pure.mpg.de/rest/items/item_2376846_3/component/file_2376845/content   around 13 minutes - Non Lexical Vocialisation  https://nonlexicalvocalizations.com/   around 16 minutes - we talk about turn-taking and here is a nice summary of this phenomenon from Stephen Levinson https://pure.mpg.de/rest/items/item_2193297/component/file_2240007/content   around 21 minutes - I ask Emily for a working definition of Conversation Analysis (CA) here is one from online  https://www.communicationtheory.org/conversation-analysis/   around 36 minutes - this is the paper with Jessica Robles that I mentioned where I first found Emily's work https://www.academia.edu/download/57694512/SYMB_396_REV_EV.PDF   around 41 minutes - Emily mentions Sally Wiggins and her research into noises at mealtimes, here is a link to one of those papers on disgust http://www.diva-portal.org/smash/get/diva2:1143930/FULLTEXT02 or here for moments of pleasure  https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6626903/   around 48 minutes - we talk about dis-preferred responses and here is a link to a chapter about conversation analysis including dispreferred responses  https://s3.amazonaws.com/academia.edu.documents/43839945/The_Handbook_of_Applied_Linguistics_Team_Nanban_tmrg.pdf?response-content-disposition=inline%3B%20filename%3DThe_Handbook_of_Applied_Linguistics_Team.pdf&X-Amz-Algorithm=AWS4-HMAC-SHA256&X-Amz-Credential=AKIAIWOWYYGZ2Y53UL3A%2F20200205%2Fus-east-1%2Fs3%2Faws4_request&X-Amz-Date=20200205T145009Z&X-Amz-Expires=3600&X-Amz-SignedHeaders=host&X-Amz-Signature=81db1bc04945a4e9f8a59ba2e9ef364239c172c0059ce54b2a270c59e1be69f7#page=281   around 50 minutes- we talk about creaky voice, here is a link to a paper on that phenomenon  https://www.researchgate.net/profile/Jody_Kreiman/publication/281119746_Acoustic_properties_of_different_kinds_of_creaky_voice/links/55d75bad08aeb38e8a85a866.pdf   around 56 minutes - we recommend some books, here are the links   https://www.amazon.co.uk/Talk-Science-Conversation-Elizabeth-Stokoe/dp/1472140842/ref=sr_1_1?adgrpid=64739266474&gclid=Cj0KCQiA7OnxBRCNARIsAIW53B_VZGiQjJYFXdkMlTMl1dvgNeRPCWYkIYmkRXg0_YN6NsLMTRHv8CYaAoKaEALw_wcB&hvadid=310587725214&hvdev=c&hvlocphy=1006522&hvnetw=g&hvpos=1t1&hvqmt=e&hvrand=3831623842289732855&hvtargid=kwd-574014848791&hydadcr=24428_1748934&keywords=talk+elizabeth+stokoe&qid=1580914457&sr=8-1 https://www.amazon.co.uk/Affectivity-Interaction-objects-English-Pragmatics/dp/9027256209/ref=sr_1_1?keywords=Affectivity+in+Interaction%3A+Sound+Objects+in+English&qid=1580914692&sr=8-1     More from Emily: Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UClsFYWz5vIm8pFYFfpcrQaA Twitter: https://twitter.com/EMdoesCA  Bio: https://emilyhofstetter.ca/   Follow us on Instagram for exclusive Podcast updates! https://www.instagram.com/emotionatworkpodcast/   Learn more about Emotion at Work: https://www.emotionatwork.co.uk   Connect with Phil: https://www.linkedin.com/in/phil-willcox-02013425/

This episode looks at neuroscience and organizational change.

Episode 38 - Emotion at Work in Equality, Diversity and Inclusion

This episode looks at Equality, Diversity and Inclusion. The topic in this episode is one that I’m very conscious of and aware of because as a middle-aged white man I’m conscious of the advantages this brings me in life.  If I think back over my career this consciousness hasn’t always been with me.  Whether that’s because of the wider conversation that’s happening around equality, diversity and inclusion or whether that’s with age I’ve become more aware of it. Our guest today, Mayokun 'Mac' Alonge, is working hard to change the awareness and consciousness around equality, diversity and inclusion.   Happy listening!   More from Mac: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/mayokunalonge/ Website: https://theequalgroup.com Twitter: https://twitter.com/theequalgroup   Follow us on Instagram for exclusive Podcast updates! https://www.instagram.com/emotionatworkpodcast/   Learn more about Emotion at Work: https://www.emotionatwork.co.uk   Connect with Phil: https://www.linkedin.com/in/phil-willcox-02013425/

Episode 37 - *special edition* A focus on Emotion

This episode is a new format for the podcast.  I have gone back over some of our previous episodes and pulled together a 'best of sort of episode with a focus on 'Emotion'.  Episodes; 2 (with SJ Lennie), 25 (with Cliff Lansley), 26 (with Jo Wainwright) and 27 (with James Gross) all took a slightly different perspective on emotion and yet there were also some similarities and differences.  I wanted to pull out these similarities and differences and add to them with some reflection, comments and narration of my own.  I am not 100% sure if it works as a format and please let me know what you think.   Your references can be found on the original episode's show notes.  Happy Listening   Follow us on Instagram for exclusive Podcast updates! https://www.instagram.com/emotionatworkpodcast/   Learn more about Emotion at Work: https://www.emotionatwork.co.uk   Connect with Phil: https://www.linkedin.com/in/phil-willcox-02013425/
