2020 - Creating Civility in the Workforce – Whatever Happened to Respect? How to Turbo Charge a Safe and Embracing Return to Work

OVERVIEW
What is the cost when we don’t? Indifference, an appearance of a lack of respect for others and self-respect for the person. Uncivil behavior, (rude, uncaring) left unaddressed, begins a downward spiral you and your employees can’t afford. Incivility, leads to workplace gossip, harassment, rumors, and then to bullying, and ultimately, what we see too much in the news every day now, disrespectful behavior, sexual harassment and negative work environment. This workplace civility training program covers how you can communicate the best attributes of respect and civil, conscious, caring behavior to and by everyone. The payback is better relationships and client appreciation.
WHY SHOULD YOU ATTEND
The world has changed this year. Respect is now how we interact, or don’t, with everyone, how we care about how we can impact others in a very negative way. Respect and civil behaviors now is: social distancing, self-isolation, containment, testing, PPE, curb side pickup, quarantining, zooming, senior’s hours, bonus (patriot) pay for front line essential workers. It is caring about how you could impact others by personal contact, by not passing on COVID-19. We still need personal respect driven by responsible civility in the workplace. It is stopping the covidiots as we struggle to get off the corona coaster of fear. We must care about how we interact with people. Respect comes from being trusted - in you, your company and product and service.
AREAS COVERED
Loss of trust. Objectionable behavior leads to workplace imbalances and negative work environment.

LEARNING OBJECTIVES
Don’t let anyone get comfortable by disrespecting you, your work skills, your ethnic background, your soft skills in leadership and communication, your department, or your work team. Uncivil and disrespectful behavior, when left unchecked, becomes the culture of being rude, indifferent and uncaring. This generates the rumors and gossip in the workplace. Gossip is someone trying to level the playing field by taking away what someone else has, fairly or unfairly, or to get what they don't have, and think they should have. They become rude. Rudeness is the weak person’s imitation of strength and a sledgehammer by others who know how to use it. Left unchecked, this can lead to bullying, harassment and then sexual harassment, creating a toxic workplace culture, and when publicized, a bad reputation that requires expensive damage control. Over-worked, dis-engaged and undisciplined staff do more harm to your reputation and employee productivity than you can afford. A workplace culture of tolerating a bad attitude by one or more employees is not acceptable. The cause of the employee attitude is generated from how they are treated at work, a seeming lack of respect of them. Is it you or is it the other person that is the real problem? Respect comes from dealing with the situation when it becomes evident. This workplace civility training program is how to change the viewing of this person and their behavior to where you move them to be solution orientated. Respect reduces stress, and it drives up trust, engagement, creativity and productivity.
WHO WILL BENEFIT
This is appropriate for anyone who is in leadership and/or involved in creating, improving and support a respectful workplace culture. This includes HR and training officers. The cost to companies in employee absences due to bulling and harassment, is billions in lost wages and productivity.
