Globalisation and demographic trends underline the twin challenge of the Nordics with productivity stagnation and a decreasing work force. Increasing productivity and the work force will be an answer to both. A good work environment can do both: If less people have to take sick leave as result of bad work environments, this will contribute to increasing the work force. Also, for some time, a relationship between work environment and productivity has been hypothesised. Happy, healthy workers, in short, are more productive than not-so-happy and not-so-healthy workers are. This report is based on the most comprehensive empirical study of the cohension between working envi-ronment and productivity. It confirms the hope of many, i.e. that improvements in working environment and improved productivity are highly correlated. The results are robust across time and the investigated countries.

The poems in Mother is a Verb reveal a very forthright study of who our mothers really are. After reflecting on the mother-relationship, I decided that we all have intensely strong thoughts about our mothers, grandmothers, or anyone else who became our mother figure. These can either be positive or negative. At some point in our lives, by pinpointing who our mother figure really is/was internally, we then can begin to understand our own flaws, our own talents, and our inner voice. Mother is not just a word, but it is movement, it is action. Mother is our future and our past. Mother....does. Mother...is. Poems by: David Ebenbach, Jennifer Givhan, Brian Bodeur, Kiley Bodeur, Alyssa Yankwitt, Bree A Rolfe, Steve Brightman, Heather Minette, M.J Iuppa, and more.

Mother Is a Verb

This book is a collection of reflections on the reality of Love’s presence. They are encounters with truth in the disguise of image and story—a game of horseshoes played across the threshold of non-existence. I throw iron shoes through the opening, and Hafiz throws back bowling balls, flower bouquets and circling doves. When difficulty arises, Jesus crawls out from the safe-keeping of my own heart to walk with me for a bit. And when all else fails, there’s a leopard ambush.
