    Night Shifts, Stress, and the Hidden Cost to Your Brain

    This systematic review of 64 studies shows that shift work—especially night shifts—occupational stress, and prolonged working hours reliably impair attention, memory, executive function, and processing speed via circadian disruption, sleep loss, and stress-related neurophysiology. Evidence for sedentary work is mixed. Practical recommendations include optimizing shift schedules, limiting consecutive nights and long hours, reducing job stress through redesign and resources, and embedding recovery practices to protect cognitive health during working years and beyond.

    When AI Becomes the Excuse: How Short-Termism Fuels Mass Layoffs

    This episode examines the surge of AI-justified layoffs and argues that managerial short-termism—not technology alone—is driving premature workforce cuts that erode demand and organizational capacity. Drawing on history and economic theory, it proposes a pragmatic policy path: graduated reductions in the standard workweek, income protections, and employer incentives to preserve employment and translate AI gains into broadly shared prosperity.

    Compassion at Work: How Empathy Drives Performance

    This episode explores how compassion—recognizing, empathizing with, and responding to suffering—shapes employee wellbeing and organizational performance. It reviews evidence on the costs of compassion deficits (stress, burnout, disengagement) and the benefits of supportive cultures. Practical, evidence-based responses are presented: leadership development, psychological safety, team practices, flexible policies, and systems to prevent compassion fatigue. The episode concludes that integrating compassion into strategy and governance creates sustainable workplaces where people and performance thrive.

    When I‑O Psychology Ignored Labor: A Century‑Long Blindspot

    This episode exposes how industrial‑organizational psychology has long sidelined organized labor, narrowing the field's theories and limiting its impact on worker wellbeing. It traces historical roots, documents practical harms—from incomplete voice mechanisms to inequitable outcomes—and outlines concrete pathways for repair: collaborative research, bargaining support, curriculum reform, and ethical standards that center workers as legitimate stakeholders.

  6. Reclaiming Human Leadership in the Age of AI: Evidence-Based Strategies for Navigating Disruption and Rediscovering Purpose, by Jonathan H. Westover PhD

    Reclaiming Human Leadership in the Age of AI: Evidence-Based Strategies for Navigating Disruption and Rediscovering Purpose, by Jonathan H. Westover PhD

    Abstract: Artificial intelligence is fundamentally disrupting traditional leadership paradigms, forcing organizations to reconsider what leadership means when machines can process information faster, generate competent outputs, and automate decisions at scale. This disruption manifests across four interconnected domains: meaning-making, identity, organizational systems, and leader development. Rather than rendering human leadership obsolete, AI clarifies what leadership has always been for—stewarding purpose, creating connection, and exercising judgment in contexts machines cannot comprehend. Drawing on organizational behavior research, developmental psychology, and case studies across technology, healthcare, and financial services sectors, this article examines how leading organizations are responding to AI-driven leadership disruption. Evidence suggests successful navigation requires shifting from expertise-based authority to inquiry-driven facilitation, from control-oriented management to adaptive systems stewardship, and from horizontal skill acquisition to vertical developmental growth. Organizations that intentionally cultivate human-centered leadership capabilities—meaning stewardship, reflective practice, distributed intelligence, and developmental capacity—position themselves to thrive amid technological transformation while preserving the irreducibly human elements that create organizational vitality and stakeholder wellbeing.

  8. The Myth of the Workless Future: Why AI Will Reshape—Not Replace—Human Labor, by Jonathan H. Westover PhD

    The Myth of the Workless Future: Why AI Will Reshape—Not Replace—Human Labor, by Jonathan H. Westover PhD

    Predictions of a fully automated, workless society within two decades have captured public imagination and policy attention. This article examines the empirical evidence and theoretical frameworks surrounding large-scale technological displacement, arguing that rather than eliminating work entirely, AI and automation are more likely to hollow out middle-skill occupations while preserving demand for high-touch human services and augmented knowledge work. Drawing on labor economics, organizational psychology, and technology adoption research, we identify three emerging workforce segments: AI-augmented super-workers, human-essential service providers, and a potentially marginalized middle tier facing structural displacement. The article evaluates organizational responses including skills development programs, hybrid human-AI work design, and social safety net innovations. We conclude that preventing a bifurcated "stipend society" requires proactive intervention in education systems, labor market institutions, and the psychological contract between workers, employers, and the state. The central challenge is not whether society can afford economic security for displaced workers, but whether existing political and cultural frameworks can accommodate such a transformation while preserving human agency and meaning.
