Despite a proliferation of literature on the body and emotion in sociology and organisation studies, it is our view that much of it remains deeply disembodied, treating the body pretty much like any other sociological phenomenon, i.e., as a mere object of study. In seeking to dissolve the gender divide, we incorporate a number of vignettes in an attempt to write our own bodies into the text. While reflecting about our own masculine (David and Torkild) and transgender (Torkild) embodiment, we critically discuss how transgender, in particular, may constitute a vehicle for challenging and disrupting the gender divide. Gendered incorporations: critically embodied reflections on the gender divide in organisation studies

The paper draws on transdisciplinary collaborative research with nursing homes on gender, ethical decisions and needs management.

Emotion management is defined as managing feeling and acting these out based on the propriety of emotional display (Hochschild, 1983). Legitimation performances are acted out to gain others' validation (Goffman, 1963). Researchers are continually negotiating their legitimation requiring them to manage their emotions. An emotion map, that is, a set of feeling rules, is conceptualised with positive engagement and deference, with these the feeling rules shaping researchers' interpretation and expression of emotion.

In this paper, we will examine the impact of ethical leadership on work environment. Problematic leadership behaviours are analysed in relation to the health of the individuals and the workplaces. Different leadership styles are reviewed in relation to the outcomes of healthy and productive workplaces.

Three critical questions are posed regarding the need for research/respondent transparency. Recommendations are made regarding the adoption of an Informed Consent Form (Leedy and Ormrod, 2001) as a formal part of the research methodology.
