Wł. Dawida 1, 50-527 Wrocław, Poland e-mail address: [email protected] Abstract Resentment has a particular place in the University of the Third Age. Here, the acti- vities of the organization come up against the developing personalities of the elderly and crises of personality, which intensify the phenomenon. Temporary resentment can in unfavourable circumstances temporary resentment can escalate into permanent resent- ment, which is more diffi cult to alleviate. The task of the manager is to uncover this phe- nomenon at a relatively early stage, and to take appropriate preventative measures in the form of long-lasting negotiation of tasks and suitable system of sharing rewards. Key words: resentment, U3A, negative ageing, management of emotions, NGO, psychological contract The University of the Third Age is a distinctive organization, the management of which poses an enormous challenge for the director. Here, apart from the usual problems which arise in any organization, additional problems need to be dealt with related to the specifi cs of ageing. Among the issues connected to ageing which make the task of management diffi cult, the greatest challenge is posed by emotional dys- regulation, related to specifi c emotional reactions. Among these are typical mood swings - ‘the yo-yo effect’- and the experiencing of resentment. Very often the one is connected with the other, and both are characteristic of adverse ageing and are rela- ted to the psychological costs which people must bear as they get older. The second important aspect of the management of the University of the Third Age is the fact that generally we are dealing with non-governmental organizations. These operate on a non-profi t basis, supported by vouluntary work by the elderly, who are also characteristic. Here we are very often dealing with involvement in voluntary work based on emotional benefi ts. Obviously, the involvement of many elderly people arises primarily from acquired virtues, among which social work is ranked fairly highly, although this is not always the case. Thanks to such activities, a large percentage of the volunteers rediscover their place in society through a network of social and emotional relationships. Many of them are quite simply looking for 6 Preface appreciation. However, insofar as younger people do something out of a sense of help and suppot, for elderly people emotional benefi ts are just as important as altru- isic motives among the young. This emotional dimension often becomes much more important, especially when emotional needs are unsatisfi ed for reason of loneliness, loss, or trauma following the death of a loved one. The literature of psychology and pedagogy shows that while on the one hand such an increase in emotional needs can
