Short Course Description
A respectful work environment is essential to the overall success of your team, as well as a contribution to a stronger work reputation. Evidently, when we learn to accept the differences between the values and perspectives of those around us, we can continue to grow as a team with this shared knowledge. The concept of respect is often taught at a young age, however, it is just as important to remind adults to model respective behaviors. Remember, it is the responsibility of all team members to be respectful to one another, and address conflict in a positive manner in order to accomplish a healthy, safe work environment.
Our Respect in the Workplace workshop will give you the tools and conversation to help empower your team to recognize behaviors that influence the performance done within the workplace. A respectful workplace is one in which integrity and professionalism are displayed, and the skills to communicate and recognize one another are practiced.
