What does respect at work actually look like ?

The word "respect" gets thrown around a lot these days. But what does respect at work actually look like? How does it sound? Will people know it when they see it? This course explores the topic through four quintessential skill points. Wrong-way scenes depict the negative impact of disrespect while right-way scenes inspire positive, respectful, inclusive behavior.

The key to building a respectful workplace lies in ensuring that each and every individual understands the part they play in the process. This program combines dramatic vignettes and helpful onscreen hosts to illustrate four things individuals must do to ensure that their workplace is respectful and inclusive:

• Avoid Clearly Discriminatory or Intolerant Behavior
• Respect the Unique Perspective and Knowledge Each Person Has to Offer
• Act in Ways That Build People Up, Not Tear Them Down
• Let Go of the Belief That Your Way is Always Right

Employees are taught that while they don't need to be best friends with everyone on the team, they must respect each other, appreciate their differences and look for the value that each person brings to the overall group effort.
