Create a safer space/environment and always treat people in a respectful the way we would want to be treated. Recognize that, like you, coworkers, reports, and superiors have rights, opinions, wishes, experiences, competence, and they make mistakes, which are simply lessons to be learned. They have similar concerns and insecurities and share the common goal of wanting to perform their jobs successfully. Respect in the workplace breeds a healthy work environment. A professional, respectful work culture encourages productivity and growth. Staff work optimally knowing they are valued and respected for their ideas as well as their role within the GLNS. Respect in the Workplace, Programs, Projects, Activities, and Events foster productivity, growth, and success for our Society.
