WorkLife Book Club. Volume 1: Shoreditch, by Carmel O’Reilly
Experiences we have in our WorkLife shape our understanding of the world. Stories help communicate truths about human behaviours and relationships, bringing an opportunity for change and development.
Books help anchor WorkLife conversations through characters, plots and settings, enabling a range of issues to be worked through.
The WorkLife Book Club takes you on a journey through the streets of Shoreditch, East London, as the members share culinary experiences, while discussing WorkLife struggles and successes through the wisdom found in the books they read. The book includes assignments with helpful techniques that can be applied to support you in self-managing your WorkLife learning.
“My stated mission is to guide WorkLife learning through reading. I also have a secret mission, which is to draw attention to stories of change and active decision making – people standing up and saying they want to do something different with their WorkLife. I want to highlight stories, books and discussions that focus on in-depth portrayals of subjects’ inner feelings, thoughts and motivations. While readers will not encounter the exact scenarios they read about, they will be able to use an increasingly finely tuned ability to understand and respond to multiple competing viewpoints.” (Carmel O’Reilly, School of WorkLife, www.schoolofworklife.com)
