Communicating with RESPECT

An action learning approach for health professionals

By: Andrew Rixon PhD,Sascha Rixon PhD,Dr Hansel Addae

It’s not just health professionals in Emergency Departments that need to communicate effectively under difficult conditions involving time pressure, high stress, and conflict. Executives, senior managers and leaders have this need too. Through simple, practical and effective tools validated by Emergency Department clinicians, this book provides health professionals with a team-based approach for being more effective communicators and influencers along the patient care journey. If this approach can work in the ED, we believe it can be successful in other sectors and settings too. Based on COIN for ED Professionals™, a peer-reviewed and published communication and influencing skills training program developed for Emergency Department health professionals, this book: •presents the RESPECT model, a 7 principled framework enabling health professionals to influence effectively and respectfully in difficult and high stress situations •introduces the approach of action learning, the secret to continuous improvement •provides a rich collection of real stories from clinicians, case-studies, exercises, activities and self-assessment tools targeting professionals seeking to significantly improve not only their own communication and influencing skills, but also those of their colleagues.

Film Criticism and Digital Cultures

Journalism, Social Media and the Democratization of Opinion

By: Andrew McWhirter

The critic is dead.' 'Everyone's a critic.' These statements reflect some of the perceptions of film criticism in a time when an opinion can be published in seconds, yet reach an audience of millions. This book examines the reality of contemporary film criticism, by talking to leading practitioners in the UK and North America - such as Nick James, Mark Cousins, Jonathan Rosenbaum and Richard Porton - and by covering a broad spectrum of influential publications - including Sight & Sound, The Guardian, Cineaste, indieWIRE and Variety. Forming a major new contribution to an emerging field of study, these enquiries survey the impact of larger cultural, economic and technological processes facing society, media and journalism. Historical perspectives on criticism from ancient times and current debates in journalism and digital media are used to unravel questions, such as: what is the relationship between crisis and criticism? In what way does the web change the functions and habits of practitioners? What influences do film industries have on the critical act? And how engaged are practitioners with converged and creative film criticism such as the video essay?In the face of transformative digital idealism, empirical findings here redress the balance and argue the case for evolution rather than revolution taking place within film criticism.
