Commit to policies that reflect your employees’ values, especially in areas like worker safety, environmental impact, workplace safety, and diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI). The model presented in this paper is underpinned by the idea that humans have a tendency towards sense making and ‘processing’ of experience into full awareness that is advantageous to their evolutionary survival. Warner ( 2005) applies Tooby and Cosmides ( 1992) evolutionary perspective to understand our drive towards experiential processing and our tendency to experience psychological distress when this is inhibited. Developing a complex and nuanced understanding of our physical and social environment through a process of sense-making is an adaptation of some evolutionary advantage, to escape predators and remain within the beneficial environment of our social grouping. I extend this to an experiential-processing understanding of post-traumatic stress, noting that trauma presents us with experience so overwhelming that it can severely inhibit our capacity for processing (see also Hamilton, 2013). If capacity for processing is impaired, this in itself may become a source of psychological distress (Warner, 2005). Traumatic events can shatter our assumptions about self and world, presenting a need for personal sense-making and meaning making, culturally, psychologically, emotionally and existentially. Processing traumatic experience into awareness, while initially distressing, tends to reduce psychological distress and lessen trauma-related symptoms. This process is evident in trauma-informed therapy, where clients attach a coherent narrative to their trauma experience, processing it emotionally and psychologically, while learning to understand and manage associated intrusive psychological, emotional and physical affective states within a supportive therapeutic relationship. Should your attempts at reconciliation come to nothing, then you may need to take matters further. If possible, discuss matters with your manager. If that doesn't produce results, or if your boss is a part of the problem, then consider referring the matter elsewhere, perhaps to another senior member in the organisation with responsibilities in managing people.God specifically forbids this to Noah after the flood and this creates a link between the consuming of blood and the committing of sins. In the story of Cain and Abel when Cain murders his brother he buries him in the ground, which “consumes his blood”. Jorstad (2016) goes into more detail on this subject but the parallel with Grendel’s consumption reveals his monstrous nature and reinforces his status as an “enemy of mankind” and Grendel’s role in the breakdown of a society.

Basic Books, New York, pp 19–136 When a manager resolves a difference of opinion between two or more members of their team about a professional matter, accept their decision. Even if you think your boss has made a wrong call, it is their judgement and they will have to stand by it. One of the hardest things to accept about a workplace conflict is that the person or people you have a problem with are in the right and, consequently, you are in the wrong. It takes guts and no small amount of humility to admit you have caused workplace conflict which otherwise could have been avoided.Kozlowska and Hanney ( 2001, p. 51) and Crittenden ( 1997), note that prior to developing language, memories may be ‘imaged’ as infant’s experience ‘perceptual sensory images of the contexts associated with safety or danger, such as sounds, darkness, smells, visual images and bodily states’. Clients may experience difficulty verbalising affective states in trauma therapy, and art therapy may better capture these early memories, stored and remembered as images. The ‘non-verbal medium’ of art can enable us to access and visually express imaged memories, symbolic of experience, allowing ‘exposure to conscious reflection and cortical processing’ and emergent images can be used therapeutically to symbolise and process trauma towards ‘adaptive integration’ of experience (Kozlowska and Hanney, 2001, p. 52). Clements ( 1996) noted monsters (or grotesque figures) frequently present in art therapy with children as metaphors to describe trauma or abusive adults (Kozlowska and Hanney, 2001, p. 52). Art can provide a ‘transitional space’ to ‘externalise’ a concrete representation of trauma experience and discussion of artwork can enable meaning and sequence to be attached through constructing a narrative. Indirect exposure to experience through symbolisation permits ‘anxiety to be tolerated and the unspeakable and unthinkable to be contemplated’ (Kozlowska and Hanney, 2001, p. 53). Symbolic imagery of trauma experience can in this way provide a more tolerable way to represent, process and integrate experience.
