He is a poet, an applied anthropologist, a psychoanalytic anthropologist, medicalanthropologist, an organizational anthropologist, a psychohistorian, and a psychodynamic organizational consultant.

Howard also greatly enjoys "facilitating" organizational groups as part of his consulting activities.

In late 2015 he co-authored with Seth Allcorn (senior author) a book of stories from organizational life. The book is titled The Dysfunctional Workplace, published by the University of Missouri Press. In 2017 Howard published the Second Edition of his 1994 book, Listening Deeply, with the University of Missouri Press.

In 2020, he co-authored a book with his long-time friend and co-author Seth Allcorn, The Psychodynamics of Toxic Organizations: Applied Poems, Stories, and Analysis, published by Routledge. In 2021, they co-authored Psychoanalytic Insights into Social, Political, and Organizational Dynamics: Understanding the Age of Trump, published by Routledge.

He has co-authored many articles, chapters, books, and poems with Seth Allcorn. Their book of collaborative poems is called Whiteboardings, published in 2023 by Finishing Line Press, Georgetown, KY. Although officially "retired," he continues to write essays, chapters, books, and poetry, and participates "virtually" by Internet in several professional conferences. Trained originally in historical musicology, Howard spends a lot of time listening to classical music.
