2021 august minding the workplace search minding the workplace the new workplace institute blog hosted by david yamada menu skip to content home about this blog and nwi events free articles need help popular and notable posts monthly archives august 2021 netflix s the chair a telling farce about the academic workplace august 29 2021 by david yamada in academic workplaces diversity and discrimination tags academic workplaces diversity and discrimination 10 comments a lot of the buzz surrounding the chair netflix s new short dramedy series about academic life centers on whether it s a realistic depiction of working in higher education my answer not really but sort of overall it s a telling and entertaining farce that yields truths about modern academe especially the world of elite colleges the gifted sandra oh plays the first woman of color to serve as chair of the english department at a fictitious ivy league type university soon after assuming her new post she is embroiled in politically charged allegations of misconduct by a professorial colleague and close friend of course the situation is precipitated by a student social media posting that goes viral the unfolding mess i e when cluster is only half a word becomes the dominant storyline of the series although oh is the glue that holds the chair together she is joined by an excellent ensemble cast two scene stealers are holland taylor as an eccentric sharp tongued senior professor whom the university is trying to push out and everly carganilla as oh s precocious and attitudinal young daughter although the show mimics the white male hierarchies of many universities the women are by far its strongest and most interesting characters the exaggerated behaviors of faculty and administration highlight the show s farcical qualities the chair illustrates with exclamation marks topics such as academic freedom and tenure diversity and identity especially race gender and age career arcs and ambitions substance use student faculty relations institutional governance and academic administration neither professors nor senior administrators play heroic roles they operate in and contribute to a self absorbed bubble they also curse a lot tossing f bombs with regularity as for the undergraduates on the surface they re multi talented ambitious politically correct and very earnest at times one might be tempted to tag them as the adults in the room at least compared to their over the top faculty mentors however only by stepping back and asking but what are they soooo earnest about does one understand how a blend of superstar ability privileged sense of self importance and lack of life experience can produce absurdly blown up responses to matters calling for common sense and genuine dialogue the chair throws lots of barbs at academic culture and academic people during its six 30 minute episodes those who are not familiar with the pathologies of university life may miss some of the finer points nevertheless the series also works as a take on venerable workplaces grounded in pomp and dysfunction as an academic i alternately enjoyed and winced at the chair there s talk of a season two if it comes to pass i m now curious enough about this neurotic bunch of on screen colleagues to watch what happens next share this print opens in new window print share on facebook opens in

270 people have become part of this important and exciting initiative recent related posts on peer support groups for those who have experienced workplace bullying and mobbing 2019 rev 2021 link here with all this in mind i decided to gather together some resources and suggestions that may be useful to those who are participating in peer support groups for targets especially those who are organizing and facilitating them how can i make a living doing workplace anti bullying work 2019 link here over the past few months i ve had several conversations and exchanges with folks about options for making a living doing workplace anti bullying work my upshot one should look to incorporate workplace bullying and mobbing projects and initiatives into an existing work portfolio in a compatible vocation otherwise it is more realistic to be doing anti bullying work as a meaningful part time avocation a short list of recommended books for targets of workplace bullying and mobbing 2019 link here when someone is experiencing workplace bullying or mobbing understanding what s happening and assessing options are vitally important towards finding a way to a better place however the volume of resources may seem overwhelming so i thought i d offer a very selective list of four affordable books that i repeatedly recommend to others share this print opens in new window print share
