Personal losses of employees can diminish their work\nperformance and productivity, putting at risk the success of organizations. The purpose of\nthis qualitative study was to explore in-depth the living experience of grief as perceived\nby Hispanic male employees who had lost a loved one. Two research questions\nguided the study: (a) What is the living experience of grief as perceived by Hispanic male\nemployees? (b) What influence does grief have on work performance as perceived by\nHispanic male employees?\nMethod: The inductive, qualitative research method of phenomenology was used\nin this study. This study included the voluntary participation of six Hispanic men who\nwere purposefully chosen based on pre-determined criteria to participate. The following\ncriteria were used to select the participants: First, the participants must have been\nHispanic males. Second, participants must have been employed when they experienced\nthe death of a loved one. Third, participants must have been able to articulate their\nexperiences in English. The primary data collection method was face-to-face individual\ninterviews. Data was also collected from other sources such as field notes, observations,\nand a reflexive journal. One in-depth interview was conducted with each participant. An\nadaptation of Colaizzi\u2019s (1978) Procedural Steps was used to analyze the data and the\nparticipants\u2019 descriptions of their grief experience was presented in a narrative format.\niv\nMajor Findings: The following six themes were identified through data analysis:\n(1) experiencing grief, (2) grief expression of men, (3) relying on faith, (4) experiencing\nchange, (5) receiving support at the workplace, and (6) work performance after the loss.\nThe participants described their grief experience as one that affected their daily activities,\nincluding their concentration at work. They all experienced unexpected changes and new\nchallenges. Findings also suggest that there are several factors that play important roles in\nthe personal experience and expression of grief. Culture, gender, religion, and perceived\nsupport were some of the factors mentioned by the six participants of the study.\nThe findings of this study have important implications for the field of Human\nResource Development. It emphasized the importance of creating a work environment\nwhere the grieving employee feels supported, respected, and understood. It is evident that\nlearning about grief and its impact on work performance is a critical element for the\nsuccess of organizations." ] } }, { "label": { "en": [ "Classification" ] }, "value": { "none": [ "BF575.G7 M66 2007" ] } }, { "label": { "en": [ "Publication Date" ] }, "value": { "none": [ "2007" ] } }, { "label": { "en": [ "Genre" ] }, "value": { "none": [ "Academic theses" ] } }, { "label": { "en": [ "Holding Location" ] }, "value": { "none": [ "Barry University Archives and Special Collections" ] } }, { "label": { "en": [ "Resource Identifier" ] }, "value": { "none": [ "BF575.G7 M66 2007_MonserrateRosibel" ] } }, { "label": { "en": [ "Language" ] }, "value": { "none": [ "English" ] } }, { "label": { "en": [ "Permanent Link" ] }, "value": { "none": [ "http://sobekcmsrv.barrynet.barry.edu/AA00001037/00001" ] } }, { "label": { "en": [ "Creator" ] }, "value": { "none": [ "Monserrate, Rosibel" ] } }, { "label": { "en": [ "Note" ] }, "value": { "none": [ "Thesis (Ph.D.)--Barry University, 2007.", "Includes bibliographical references (leaves 99-112)" ] } }, { "label": { "en": [ "Physical Description" ] }, "value": { "none": [ "x, 122 leaves ; 28 cm." ] } }, { "label": { "en": [ "Publisher" ] }, "value": { "none": [ "Barry University" ] } }, { "label": { "en": [ "Place of Publication" ] }, "value": { "none": [ "Miami, Fla." ] } }, { "label": { "en": [ "Type" ] }, "value": { "none": [ "Book" ] } }, { "label": { "en": [ "Rights Management" ] }, "value": { "none": [ "Copyright Rosibel Monserrate.
