Abstract:

We investigated the relationship between the national cultural value of power distance and collective silence as well as the role of voice-inducing mechanisms in breaking the organizational silence. Using data from 421 organizational units of a multinational company in 24 countries, we found that both formalized employee involvement and a participative climate encouraged employees to voice their opinions in countries with a small power distance culture. In large power distance cultures, formalized employee involvement is related to employee voices only under a strong perceived participative climate.

Abstract This paper addresses one aspect of my Practice as Research project exploring composing for large groups of improvising musicians. It looks at how my practice evolved as a result of contemplating the nature of solo improvisation, together with Garry L. Hagberg’s writings around “Collective Intention.” I discuss a new work for octet that started with small-group improvisations, initially totally freely and then later using thematic material inspired and informed by the initial sessions. By basing the finished compositions on improvisations this way, I aim to bring the creative voice of the individuals into final performance. Not just by employing the compositional techniques of the likes of Graham Collier, John Zorn, Anthony Braxton and many others who allow room for realtime improvised contributions in performance, but by weaving the unique voices of the musicians into the written material as well. In this way, I am challenging the stereotype of a lone composer working away from the ensemble, which the contemporary big band composer often fits.

Abstract:

Abstract Organizational culture is one of the predictors that can influence employees' voice behavior. However, research on organizational innovation culture with employee voice behavior still needs to be more extensive and needed. This study aims to determine the role of innovative organizational culture in mediating the relationship between inclusive leadership and employee voice behavior. The study conveniently sampled 174 employees from various innovative companies. The measuring instruments used are the Inclusive Leadership Scale (α = 0.85), Organizational Culture Assessment Instrument (α = 0.84), and the Voice Behavior Scale (α = 0.93) which have been adapted into Indonesian—data analysis with the PROCESS 4 model from Hayes. The result highlights that inclusive leadership was positively correlated with employee voice behavior, and innovative culture partially mediated the relationship between inclusive leadership and employee voice behavior. The implication for organizations is to set up leaders with inclusive characteristics through self-development and training, facilitating safe environments to express employee voices and opinions by implementing values that support flexibility and autonomy. Keywords: Innovative culture; Inclusive leadership; Voice behavior; Organizational culture Abstrak Budaya organisasi merupakan prediktor yang mampu memengaruhi perilaku bersuara bagi karyawan. Namun, penelitian terkait budaya inovatif organisasi bersama dengan outcome perilaku bersuara karyawan ini masih minim diteliti dan memerlukan eksplorasi lebih lanjut. Penelitian ini bertujuan mengetahui peranan budaya inovatif organisasi dalam memediasi hubungan antara kepemimpinan inklusif dan perilaku bersuara karyawan. Sampel penelitian adalah karyawan yang bekerja dari beberapa perusahaan yang diprediksi memiliki budaya organisasi yang inovatif dengan jumlah populasi yang tidak diketahui secara pasti dan dipilih menggunakan teknik convenience sampling. Alat ukur yang dipakai adalah Inclusive Leadership Scale (α = 0.85), Organizational Culture Assessment Instrument (α = 0.84), Voice Behavior Scale (α = 0.93) yang telah diadaptasi ke dalam Bahasa Indonesia. Analisis data dengan PROCESS model 4 Hayes. Hasil menunjukkan bahwa kepemimpinan inklusif secara positif berkorelasi dengan voice behavior, budaya inovatif memiliki efek mediasi parsial pada hubungan kepemimpinan inklusif dan voice behavior karyawan. Implikasi penelitian ini bagi organisasi supaya mampu memfasilitasi lingkungan yang aman bagi karyawan dalam menyampaikan suara dan pendapatnya dengan menyiapkan pemimpin-pemimpin yang memiliki karakteristik inklusif melalui pengembangan diri dan training serta menerapkan nilai-nilai yang mendukung fleksibilitas dan otonomi bagi karyawan. Kata kunci: Budaya inovatif; Kepemimpinan inklusif; Perilaku suara; Budaya organisasi

Abstract:

Developing a culture of voice, in which employees routinely speak up and organizations capitalize on the ideas from rank-and-file workers, is central to success in modern business. Such a culture enables organizational leaders to identify and correct problems they might have otherwise overlooked, to innovate in ways they would not have considered without employee input, and to more readily gain employee buy-in for organizational changes. Yet employees routinely withhold their ideas. When ideas do bubble up, managers frequently fail to act on them. Leveraging the literature on employee voice, we offer insights into why employees do not speak up and why managers often resist acting on ideas from below, and we suggest how organizations can develop policies that promote employee voice and its many benefits.

Abstract:

The primary goal of popular culture as the dominant form of culture in the 21st century should be to unite people in a cultural synergy. Popular culture as such should insist on the richness of diversity, not on stereotypes, which is the case today. This paper will analyze the concepts of communication, culture, intercultural communication, cultural imperialism as well as the influence of popular culture on intercultural communication. Popular culture is a key component in creating a social identity in the 21st century. It provides a sense of belonging and togetherness to people around the globe. That is why they rely on popular culture to understand the world around them, and for most people, the view of the world exists only through the prism of popular culture. Although popular culture could be a hybrid space for bringing cultures closer, this is impossible today because the media deepens the gap between cultures with negative stereotypes by looking at other cultures through their own cultural prism. In order for cultures to come closer to one another, the media must be comprehensive in the way they present images in the broad category of meanings of the concepts of 'culture', 'race' and 'nation' so that people understand that culture exists on multiple levels of complexity, while popular culture presents a superficial (visible) part of culture based on which people mistakenly form a perception of a culture, which can be the cause of misunderstandings in intercultural communication.

Abstract:

Abstract For years, personal and social voices have been the issue of discussion on voice construction in written discourse (e.g., Elbow, 1999; Flowerdew, 2011; Hyland, 2002, 2010a, 2012b; Mauranen, 2013; Ramanathan & Atkinson, 1999; Tardy, 2005). However, there is a lack of an integrated examination of the dimensions which determine voice construction in writing from personal and social perspectives. This article re-examines the issue of voice construction through a critical review of previous literature on identity in written discourse. It is argued that there are five major dimensions for the construction of voice in written discourse. How writers appropriate their voice according to such five dimensions as genre, transition, culture, discipline and audience will be discussed. This paper lends further support to the view that voice in written discourse is both personal and social. As it is known, good writing expresses both personal and social voices. However, based on the dominant dimension(s), voice construction should be adjusted. Sometimes personal voice is boldly expressed; sometimes social voice is; and some other times the boundary between the two is unnoticeable. The study provides an integrated framework as well as pedagogical implications for the teaching of academic writing within L1 and L2 contexts.

Abstract:

Traditionally, music has been viewed as the quintessential non-visual art. In past centuries, a handful of blind individuals became renowned composers, singers, or organists. In fact, popular culture helped form a rather inaccurate relationship between blindness and music to the extent that visually impaired people are often expected to excel by default in the musical arts. In some cultures, parents tend to automatically choose music as their blind child’s ideal vocation. As a totally blind professional singer and voice pedagogue herself, the author has evaluated a significant number of young, visually impaired vocalists who seemed unable to use their voices as reliable instruments. Researchers have found that blindness affects the developmental stages of a person with regard to posture, gross motor skills, and muscle development and coordination.1 As a voice instructor, the author finds that visually impaired youths whose developmental stages have deviated from the norm must follow a specially designed curriculum in order to effectively learn the psycho-motor aspects of vocal technique. The goal of this article is to illuminate a path that voice teachers may follow to ensure that their blind students can maintain healthy voices and engage in rewarding singing.

Full text

Abstract:

Based on 20 years of research into vocal techniques, vocal styles, pedagogy, and history with reference to opera, popular music, and music synthesis software, I have developed a framework that seeks to explain racialized perceptions of the singing voice. On one hand, my model accounts for voice as an ever-developing instrument affected by age, hormones, environment, culture, and vocal training (whether through formal voice lessons or everyday encounters’ largely tacit feedback). On the other hand, it also accounts for perception as equally dynamic and culturally dependent. It recognizes that the voice and its perception together constitute a “thick event,” and that the complexity of the vocal signal and the ways in which listeners interact with voices are so numerous and so complex that a speaker’s race cannot be defined by the signal. In other words: Voice is not singular; it is collective. Voice is not innate; it is cultural. Voice’s source is not the singer; it is the listener. By applying this analytical model to musical case studies, this paper argues that voices are racialized when they are believed to sound a person’s essence or true identity.

Abstract:

Abstract I use the narrative method, The Listening Guide, to investigate Hijabi girlhood on YouTube through the girl-created trend #MyHijabStory that emerged in response to public misunderstanding of Hijab. The voice analysis examines how gendered subjectivities of Hijabi girlhood are constructed among narratives of piety, culture, fashion, community, and marginalization. I identified three voices: the convicted voice; the conflicted voice; and the critical voice. The first two involve looking inward and realizing multifaceted stories of coming to Hijab while the third involves looking outward to trouble the social world in which Hijabi girlhood is constituted through dominant discourses. I illustrate that #MyHijabStory vlogs are forms of narrative resistance by girls who seek to produce a public pedagogy of Hijab that is complex and embodied.

Abstract:

Developing a writer’s voicea challenging task for second-language writers who are new not only to the culture but also to the values associated with the target language. This study aims at exploring the writer’s voice of Arabic-speaking learners who study English as a Second Language. The study mainly discusses the following question: Do L2 learners who learn to write in both first and second language have an individual, collective, or depersonalized voice? Investigating the impact of culture and society on language and identity will facilitate the discovery of voice in second language writing. Methodologically, the study employs a qualitative research design in which data are collected via a discourse analysis of written texts. The analysis of the data adopted the holistic and dynamic perspective (Zhang & Zhan, 2020) by examining the various factors affecting Arabic-speaking learners of ESL including cultural factors, linguistic resources, and educational/academic pedagogy. Moreover, the study followed the analysis of the writer’s voice proposed by Lehman (2018) and used further Lehman and Anderson’s study of voice in academic writing (Lehman & Anderson, 2021). Lehman proposed three main topics to classify the writer’s voice: (a) individual, (b) collective, and (c) depersonalized. The findings of this research showed that approximately 55.96% of the voice of Arab learners of ESL fell in the individual category, 29.97% fell in the collective category, and 14.07% fell in the depersonalized category.

Abstract:

The article explores how The Voice re-actualizes the Soviet era songs and symbols. The nature of the show’s interaction with Soviet culture is traced through five parameters: the geography of the participants, the repertoire, the figure of one of the mentors, voice timbres, and specifics of interpretation. The Voice, like the all Union song festivals of the Soviet era, strives for geographical pervasiveness and maximum ethnic diversity within the project. This diversity, however, turns out to be very conditional. It does not imply musical immersion into different cultures, but is limited to a linguistic, and, at most, arranging reworking of the titular nation’s culture. Among the Soviet pop music themes, in the highest demand in the show are dramatic love ballads, songs about nature, and compositions about the artist’s fate. Alexander Gradsky, being one of the mentors, gave newly found relevance to the half-forgotten hits of the Soviet time, creating a new image of the Soviet music stage, far from sterile piety and emotional restraint. The analysis of participants’ timbres and the peculiarities of their vocal technique shows that The Voice brings back the fashion for trained, powerful and velvety voices of the Soviet estrada. Another trait noticed was the two vectors of the performing interpretation of Soviet pop songs. Most of the contestants tend to become completely identical, indistinguishable from the original (canonical) version of the song, while only few dare to radically rethink the Soviet-time songs, striving to show their originality and uniqueness by significantly changing the well-known music.

Abstract:

This article explores the voice of black minority ethnic (BME) women in devolved Scotland. Particular attention is given to examining multicultural policies and devolved political processes and how these impact on the position of BME women in the political life of Scotland. The study is based on secondary analysis of existing survey and focus group data, and primary data drawn from qualitative interviews conducted with a sample of respondents from political and non-governmental organisations. Drawing on feminist theories of multiculturalism, culture is perceived as dynamic and contested and the research depicts BME women as agents engaged in shaping Scotland and their own cultures. The findings show that devolution has created a political opportunity structure more favourable to the voices of BME women. However, this voice remains quiet and is limited by barriers within and outside of BME communities. The research also highlights the role of third sector organisations in enabling the voice of BME women. The author concludes by arguing that successive devolved governments’ promotion of multiculturalism in Scotland has benefited BME women but with important limitations.

Abstract:

This article examines the mechanisms through which acoustic-political power was claimed in the era of National Socialism. It shows that the “loud speaker” as a technical medium, framed as an extensively communicative apparatus, was constitutive for National Socialism’s political culture. Different operative scenarios of the loudspeaker are analyzed with regard to new forms of spatial-acoustic development. As a result, the article brings to light the temporal re-structuring by which the technically and medially performed voices of National Socialist speakers, and Hitler in particular, were established.

Voice in healthcare is crucial because of its ability to improve organizational performance and prevent medical errors. This paper contends that a comparative analysis of voice promotion in the American and German healthcare industries can strengthen a culture of safety in both countries. It provides a brief introduction to the concept of voice in healthcare, including its impact on safety culture, barriers to voice, and the dual influences of confidentiality and transparency on voice promotion policies. It then examines the theoretical basis, practical workings, and legal aspects of voluntary error reporting and error disclosure as avenues for exercising voice in the U.S. and Germany. Finally, it identifies transferable practices that can remedy shortcomings in each country's voice promotion policy.

Abstract:

The emergence of the new media period has transformed social media into a public forum for the dissemination of public information, and the enhancement of user voice and demand has given feminism a new context and given women a free platform to express themselves. However, the ability of women to talk freely still faces significant restrictions as a result of the long-lasting effects of history and culture as well as the bias of the news media system. This essay attempts to explain the current situation of the absence of womens voices on the platform by using Weibo, the dominant force of Chinese social platforms, as the research object. The research method of case analysis is used to broaden the analysis based on the facts and material already available. The research results emphasize the plight of womens lack of voice in society, and put forward some relevant countermeasures from three different perspectives: media, women themselves, and social culture, to encourage the growth of womens voice on social platforms and ultimately achieve gender equality.

Abstract:

AbstractAlthough an increasing number of sociolinguistic researchers consider functions of voice qualities as stylistic features, few studies consider cases where voice qualities serve as the primary signs of speech registers. This article addresses this gap through the presentation of a case study of Lachixío Zapotec speech registers indexed though falsetto, breathy, creaky, modal, and whispered voice qualities. I describe the system of contrastive speech registers in Lachixío Zapotec and then track a speaker on a single evening where she switches between three of these registers. Analyzing line-by-line conversational structure I show both obligatory and creative shifts between registers that co-occur with shifts in the participant structures of the situated social interactions. I then examine similar uses of voice qualities in other Zapotec languages and in the two unrelated language families Nahuatl and Mayan to suggest the possibility that such voice registers are a feature of the Mesoamerican culture area.

Full text

Abstract:

This article examines the way in which the use of effects of orality in fiction by Caribbean novelists makes possible a re-examination of the assumptions underlying the use of voice in fiction. By looking at definitions of voice proposed by twentieth-century critics and exploring the ambiguity that underlies the metonymic extension of the term to designate the voice that is ‘heard’ in a written text, we attempt to show that there are two facets of voice, one of which is related to sound and to the body, the other to the notion of space and to the position of the speaking subject. A reflection on the conventions of oral storytelling reveals the distance between these two poles of voice, a distance which has been masked by the conventions of written narrative and has led to a certain confusion in the use of the term. The novel Divina Trace by Robert Antoni is used as an example of the way in which a writer’s desire to imitate orality allows us to understand the functioning of voices in fiction. Antoni’s novel creates a complex relation between the sound of voices and their positioning in the narrative structure. Antoni explores the process through which oral communication gives birth to stories in the Caribbean, thus offering an interesting perspective not only on the culture of the Caribbean, but also on the very nature of voice and its relation to storytelling.

Abstract:

The effects of organizational culture, psychological safety, and perceived leadership integrity on employee voice in organizations are evaluated in this paper. Ten (10) companies in South Africa and Nigeria's financial, service, and manufacturing sectors served as the sample for this research. Intentionally, surveys were disseminated to 200 employees from five workplaces in Nigeria and 200 employees from five workplaces in South Africa. To test the investigation's hypotheses and collect data on participants' opinions on corporate culture, psychological safety, leadership integrity, and employee voice, 400 people were recruited. One hundred eighty-one (180) surveys were discovered in Nigeria, while one hundred eighty-three (183) surveys were found in South Africa. The data was collected and analyzed using SPSS version 29 (Statistical Packages for Social Sciences). According to this study, perceived leadership integrity positively and significantly impacts employee voice in South African and Nigerian organizations. It also showed how employee voice in South African and Nigerian organizations is favorably influenced considerably by perceived leadership integrity. Further, it demonstrated how perceived corporate culture favorably influences employee voice in South African and Nigerian organizations. Additionally, this study showed how employee voice in South Africa and Nigeria is positively impacted by perceived leadership integrity, psychological safety, and organizational culture.

The problem of professional training of the future music teacher in the lessons of voice production is considered and vocal and technical techniques are proposed, which are used by the author of the Sttudy in practical work with Students. Adhering to the vocal-pedagogical principles of Professor OStap Darchuk from the Lviv Vocal School, where the author received training, and utilizing his advice, the article emphasizes the significance of musical-vocal reading based on linguiStic support, on the “character of sound” in the resonance point, and in a specific rhythm and tempo. Such reading helps develop a clear, articulate diction in the singer – the future music teacher – promoting uniformity in voice production, good projection, and the agility of sound. In doing so, the aim is to Strive for the moSt complete conveyance of the meaning of each word and the overall content of the piece. Musicalvocal declamation is also employed – a technical approach to the vocal-creative pronunciation of words with all their grammatical and logical accents, expressing the emotions contained in them. The article emphasizes the importance of underStanding the role of breathing in voice production, maStering basic types of breathing exercises (speaking, reciting poems, delivering speeches, etc.). A series of exercises for “breathing gymnaStics” is proposed in the work. Therefore, summarizing the material presented above, it is worth noting that the main goal of this article is to highlight certain vocal-technical techniques that collectively form the methodology for developing the voice of future music teachers. Since the process of shaping the elements of pedagogical maStery in a music teacher occurs gradually and takes into account the individual approach to each Student, the techniques should be selected based on what can be moSt beneficial at each Stage of the Student’s education and upbringing. Therefore, the research focuses on revealing techniques that can be recommended for work at the initial Stage of building the vocal apparatus of the Student. The proposed techniques, as described by the article’s author, are widely applied in her pedagogical work in educating future music teachers.

Abstract:

BackgroundWe still know little about whether and how the auditory hallucinations associated with serious psychotic disorder shift across cultural boundaries.AimsTo compare auditory hallucinations across three different cultures, by means of an interview-based study.MethodAn anthropologist and several psychiatrists interviewed participants from the USA, India and Ghana, each sample comprising 20 persons who heard voices and met the inclusion criteria of schizophrenia, about their experience of voices.ResultsParticipants in the USA were more likely to use diagnostic labels and to report violent commands than those in India and Ghana, who were more likely than the Americans to report rich relationships with their voices and less likely to describe the voices as the sign of a violated mind.ConclusionsThese observations suggest that the voice-hearing experiences of people with serious psychotic disorder are shaped by local culture. These differences may have clinical implications.

Abstract:

Discursive authentications of singing voices in pop music reception are often rooted in gendered expectations. Moving away from essentialist understandings of the ‘authentic voice,’ this article proffers that voices are formatively entangled in processes of subjectification. Lana Del Rey is a singer whose (vocal) career has been considered inauthentic in the discourse of journalists, particularly when she first rose to stardom in 2011 via YouTube. Del Rey is a prime example of the contemporary values of artistic personae in pop culture, as her career has been so bound to notions of authenticity and sounding authentic. Through an analysis of the vocal aesthetics of Del Rey and the discourse that surrounds her, the notion of ‘vocal ontogenesis’ is developed. This concept moves from subjectification as an ontologically complete instance to subjectification as a never-ending process. The notion of vocal ontogenesis becomes useful for comprehending the complex aggregations of which the voice is a component, and more broadly implies the need for further study of vocal materialism, setting an agenda for decentered examinations of voice, gender, and authenticity.

Abstract:

Purpose Scholars argue that supervisor’s job insecurity may affect subordinates’ work engagement. Moreover, this relationship may be mediated by subordinates’ pro-social voice and the relationship between the supervisor’s job insecurity and subordinates’ pro-social voice may be moderated by organizational culture. Therefore, the purpose of this paper is twofold. First, to examine the mediating role of the subordinate’s pro-social voice between supervisor’s job insecurity and subordinates’ work engagement. Second, to test the moderating role of organizational culture between supervisor’s job insecurity and the subordinates’ pro-social voice. Design/methodology/approach Data were gathered from employees of a large hospital in India using face-to-face data cross-sectional survey method. To test the proposed hypotheses, ordinary least squares regression analysis was performed on the data obtained. Findings The results indicated support for the proposed model in two ways. First, the subordinate’s pro-social voice mediated the relationship between supervisor’s job insecurity and the subordinate’s work engagement. Second, organizational culture acted as a moderator between supervisor’s job insecurity and the subordinate’s pro-social voice. Research limitations/implications The results augment social exchange theory by identifying the crucial role that voicing concerns plays in reducing the negative impact of supervisor’s job insecurity on the subordinates’ work engagement. Practical implications The study findings encourage managers to create an organizational culture that allows the subordinates to challenge their supervisor’s decisions. Originality/value To the best of the researchers’ knowledge, this is the first study to test job insecurity of the supervisors instead of the same respondents as a predictor of pro-social voice.

Abstract:

Singing voice teachers are working hard to be inclusive and progressive in the 21st century. We are aware of our power to create inclusive learning spaces that embrace our students’ identity traits, including race, gender, sexual orientation, ability, neurodivergence, and more. However, body size is almost always left out of the discussion of inclusive actions in the voice studio. Fatness is a social justice issue and singing voice teachers can either affirm or further marginalize fat students in the 1:1 training setting of the voice studio. In part one, the authors offer background information on the prevalence of fatness, the history of anti-fat bias, and the experiences of fat persons in healthcare, employment, and educational settings. This context encourages voice teachers to examine implicit anti-fat bias, one of the few remaining yet still widely tolerated cultural biases. Many believe that anti-fat bias can be justified by medical facts, but this belief requires an examination of the influence of money and the media. The authors utilize a fat liberationist framework, rejecting the long-held idea that fat bodies are problematic in the performing arts, and affirming that the performing arts industry must provide opportunities for talented and well-trained performers of every body size to work and tell stories that reflect our diverse world. In part two, the authors explore tangible pedagogical modifications to foster a sense of belonging for all voice students, including fat students. Micro-activism in the voice studio is a huge step toward systemic change, and it can have a profoundly positive impact on our students.

Abstract:

The article investigates the roles of and relations between violence and desire in Jennifer Egan's flash fiction "Black Box" (2012), with special attention to aspects of voice/sound, as theorized in Lacanian psychoanalysis. Read as an allegory of the processes within our psychological development, "Black Box" thematizes the problem of attaining subjectivity in its social context. The protagonist transitions from the pre-verbal narcissistic domain of the Imaginary, in which the subject-to-be emerges as both unified and alienated, to the predefined realm of the Symbolic, – a realm of culture, law and language. A strong analogy between the Lacanian theory of voice and the treatment of voice and sound in the story is exemplified in different narrative elements – characterization of the protagonists, narrative voices, and theme. Finally, the analysis shows that violence is inherent in both Self and the Other, as an essential attribute of identity formation.

Abstract:

Nostalgia for an idyllic antebellum South permeated both cultivated and vernacular arts in post-Reconstruction America. Bock's popular mode, along with his fictional persona and artificial dialect, contrasts with Bagby's high-minded autobiographical voice, but both the Northern purveyor of popular ballads and the Southern man of letters look back longingly to the same idealized past. While it is not surprising that writings of the fallen Southern aristocracy should resonate with nostalgia, the nostalgic voices of Northerners pretending to be former slaves are less comprehensible. Yet both men's memories of the Old South proved marketable.

Abstract:

Sound detection is a challenge in machine learning due to the noisy nature of signals, and the small amount of (labeled) data that is usually available. The need for sound detection in Indonesia is quite important because there are many community organizations that form groups according to the land of their origin. Especially in big cities, where people from various tribes gather and exchange cultures. However, it has a disadvantage that affects these tribes, namely the loss of the original culture of certain areas. The Sundanese are the object of this research, including Bandung, Bogor and Cirebon. Voice data is divided into 2 types, namely male and female, each region consists of 50 respondents with 25 male and female voices with a maximum voting time of 1 minute. The method used is CNN architecture based on supervised learning, preprocessing using MFCC (Mel Frequency Cepstral Coefficients) to obtain feature extraction from voice data. CNN architecture is carried out 3 times convolution with max pooling and dropout on each convolution.

Abstract:

AbstractIn her two recent operas, Heart Chamber (2017–19) and Infinite Now (2015–16), Chaya Czernowin uses vocal ensembles to embody a single character. In a 2016 article, she explained that she wanted to liberate the individual voice from its fixed emotional, social and individual conventions (especially its ingrained pathos), and to work with the voice as a free imaginative sonic material, using the ensemble technique to achieve this. This article argues that the voice ensemble technique amplifies and intensifies the pathos of the voice rather than eliminating it. Recognising that the voice has strong somatic qualities since it is produced in the body, I suggest a material-musical analysis, based on the theories of Hans Ulrich Gumbrecht and Brian Massumi, that focuses on the body, the sensual experience and the physical space, and rejects the hermeneutic tradition that refers to meaning and interpretation only. What emerges is that the voices, instrumentation and electronics of the ensemble are designed to embody the inner body and the outer space at the same time. The voice ensemble may split and produce multi-layered mental–physical states, and express how traditional dichotomies, such as culture/nature, body/mind and subject/object, can meld into multi-perspective processual movements. It is in this intersection of sound and drama, manifesting the corporeal, that the unique power of opera is evinced.

Abstract:

Purpose The ethical issues arising at work demand the role of both leader and employees, but how both the levels are linked in determining the ethical responses is an area that has not gained due attention in the past. Against this backdrop, this study aims to address the influence of a leader’s authenticity and ethical voice on ethical culture and the role ethicality of followers. Design/methodology/approach Survey design has been used, and a questionnaire is used to elicit the responses. In total, 381 filled questionnaires were used for data analysis. Findings The findings of this study highlight the role of authentic leadership in predicting the role ethicality of followers both directly and through the mediation of ethical culture. Furthermore, a leader’s ethical voice strengthens the authentic leadership and outcome relationships (with ethical culture and followers’ role ethicality). The moderated-mediation mechanism has proved as the leaders’ voice foster the indirect mechanism. Originality/value There is a dearth of literature that has focused on leadership traits (authenticity) and behavior (ethical voice) in predicting the followers’ outcomes (perceptions – ethical culture and behaviors – role ethicality). The moderated-mediation mechanism has been unattended in the past.

Abstract:

This article explores the sounds of trauma in anthropology. I ask: when, where, and under what circumstances do unmoored sounds and voices gain salience in anthropology? In particular, can methodological insights prepare anthropologists for the intense military scrutiny that societies endure in violent borderlands? Recalling the long tradition of orality in anthropology, I suggest that the slippery registers of sound and voice in trauma is generative not only of location and culture, but also of a perennial sense of dislocation. Writing anthropology demands the iterative re-dwelling and reliving of sound and voice that continually haunt, emerge, flow, and resurface across different stages of ethnographic labour. Disembodied sounds and voices generate indescribable languages. Based on my long term ethnographic fieldwork in the Northeast India-Bangladesh borderlands, I show how sensory modalities not only nourish divergent possibilities of meaning and emplacement but also register impasses of interpretation and displacement.

Abstract:

While innovation and entrepreneurship have been the main drivers of economic growth in today's world, technology business incubators (TBIs) are expected to promote the innovation-based economy. However, both academy and practice show that TBIs still have a long way to go. Unlike previous studies focusing on TBIs, this study is conducted from the perspective of startups to explore what they want from TBIs. Besides, this study also compares the differences between Korea and China. Results indicate that TBIs need to improve their service quality by taking a startup's life cycle into consideration; startups cannot always realize what they want, and differences exist due to distinct entrepreneurship-related policies and culture. Accordingly, the authors give suggestions to help the government and TBIs play a better role in encouraging startups' development so as to match the TBI with startups.

Abstract:

Safety culture is what we call as people’s safe behaviours. Safety culture is a fast growing wave in industry today. Addressing gaps in building longterm supportive safety culture for companies underlines a set of unresolved questions on behavioural risks management in industry and possible solutions. Everyone raises voice for safety, safety culture comes and risk disappears, is it so simple? Most companies delayed their HSE decisions till they suffered. Why so? Without inculcating safety as a core corporate value, industry can not be considered safe. Behavioural safety culture is a live surveillance on the risks and their spot-correction to ensure that the safety culture building process is kept on. Behaviouralisation of safety culture is necessary to overcome incidents and accidents at sites. Behavioural Safety education to one and all is the safety culture being addressed by the most. Ideologies on safety cultures vary across the industries in terms of practices. The present article dwelt on identifying the unresolved critical questions on behavioural safety supportive culture implementation in industry and raised possible solutions. The data were collected from 603 industry professionals as being study participants. The sampling method was a non-random convenience sampling. A set of ten themes of research findings reflected upon the critical issues such as basic questions on longterm safety cultures; Reactive safety culture; collective voice and leadership for at-risk behaviours; Religion, spirituality, festivities for safety at sites; Implementation of safety with feeling for others; Features of companies not empowering their workforce for performing safety implementation; Competencies gap amongst the safety professionals, the major roadblocks in HSE decisions-making, the spot-implementation of behavior based safety (BBS) approach by top leaders, and myriad factors to advance the success of longterm supportive safety culture. Fast-tracking supportive safety culture at sites would mean the next levels of hard work. The news of any safety incident travels to the share holders and impact the company’s share price. The professionals reminded to strengthen safety culture in business cultures with full behavioral safety implementation alongwith daily reviews. This paper has added an in-depth sense of qualitative data on the topic.

This article examines lost voices in Louise Erdrich’s novel The Beet Queen. Impacted by the white-male-elite values, white woman Sita Kozka and Native American man Russell Kashpaw, in their endeavor to forge ultimate femininity and masculinity, experience downward trajectory phases marked by loud voices, objectification, oppression, voice loss, and death. By comparing Sita’s death and Russell’s rebirth, it unfolds that the pursuit of femininity and masculinity, within the patriarchal and racial conceptual framework, results in voicelessness and disempowerment. It also contends that only by forging independent identity and preserving indigenous culture can women and Native American men make their voices heard.
