With contributions from Aydin Ilhan, Zeinab El Kabbout, Natasha Kewene-Hite, Andrés Neira, Alvin Lloyd Peter, Japjit Sobti, Suraimy (Sue) Stephens, Lara A. Tcholakian, Erik van de Loo, and Dianne Yun.
Despite the wounds that collective traumas can leave on survivors and descendants, there can also be adverse instrumental and constructive results from healing and inner work. This important work opens the conversation about the global effects of current and past collective traumas on organisational leaders and executives, as well as the impact that these traumas can have on behaviours, patterns, and values. More specifically, the contributions reflect the inner work that organisational leaders and executives have conducted and the meaning-making opportunities they share concerning their history, culture, language, and overall relationship with their inherited traumas.
Each chapter is authored by an executive leader who shares their story, each from a different part of the world, culture, or ethnicity. They describe in their own words how they have discovered the birthplace of their conditioning and how they can (re)connect with significant parts of their recent or ancestral collective traumas (i.e. war, conflicts, genocide, large-scale calamities such as blasts or natural disasters). The authors describe their reflections on their connection with their traumas, how they conduct repair work, and the journey of transformation, healing, and self-awareness. Through historical consciousness, these executive leaders show how they transform their inherited collective traumas for the greater good, integrate their awareness or knowledge, and attempt to lead more meaningful professional and personal lives.
The editors aim to present an overview of collective trauma and provoke reflection in the reader. It is relevant for all who want to engage with this topic and deepen their knowledge, including the general reader, researchers, policymakers, politicians, healthcare professionals, journalists, and other professionals looking for deeper insight into the role of leadership.

However, as shopping started to evolve to online shops and marketplaces, we bid our stores goodbye to become “PBShop.” This transition has only allowed us to blossom as we now ship thousands of titles to book lovers across the globe. We pride ourselves in being a community of local book lovers which allows our passion and devotion to shine in everything we do. In 2020 we not only celebrated our 20th birthday but our 1st birthday as being completely employee owned after becoming an E.O.T in September 2019. We are proud to be different and embrace standing apart on a book mountain by working from a virtual inventory which allows us to provide thousands of books that may be difficult to get for your bookshelf or your studies. Working with a number of different suppliers allows us to explore other avenues such as puzzles, sheet music and even stationery so we really do have something for everyone. Life is about being versatile in all realms of existence. If this is your first purchase with us, or you are a returning customer, we would like to welcome you to the PBShop family, for there is no friend as loyal as a book.
