Army Respect

Respect is to “Treat people as they should be treated.” Every soldier is responsible for treating other people with dignity and respect. As Soldiers we pledge to treat others with respect and dignity while not expecting anything in return. Respect allows us to appreciate what our Army leaders and Friends do for us. Respect is to have trust that people will fulfill their duties and accomplish what is expected of them. Respecting ones self is an important factor of the Army value of respect. We, the United States Army are one team and we each have something to contribute. What is respect? Respect has numerous forms. It can be self-awareness, character, understanding, trust, honesty, and a positive attitude. Respect must be earned. If someone does not respect himself or herself then they are not able to respect others. To gain respect you must treat others the way you would want to be treated, as you have heard many times before. If a unit lacks respect it cannot have teamwork and sympathy for the well being of others. It creates devotion to the success of the team. Respect goes both ways up and down the chain of command. A leader must respect his or her soldiers as their soldiers must appreciate the sacrifices and skills their superiors and vice versa. by respecting the people around you with effort, and in time soldiers come to respect each other.

Respect is the integrity that one takes upon oneself in order to carry out the orders of the officers appointed over the service member. You must respect superior because they are your senior. Their actions determine the capabilities of a unit and their overall accomplishment of an operation. A senior commander is not just any person given a rank and job. They go through vigorous training to become the person they are. Through classes, training, and experiences they gain.

Disrespect is not tolerated threw out the ranks of the army and therefore should not be dished out unless you want it to come back and spit in your face. The history of disrespect in the army is if it happened in the older days of the army you would either get the shit smoked out of you or you would get the living shit beat out of you or anyone who was to disrespect a Non-Commissioned Officer would get the same exact treatment and there is none of this favoritisms like it is now days. Disrespect in my opinion is when a person of lower rank flat out tells the Non-Commissioned Officer that they are not going to do what they have been told. Not the same as saying well Sgt I have not started that half of the task yet I have only just started the first portion but I will get it done like you have asked me to. Or when the one lower rank just simply does not understand what was given out and says something about it to learn the standard. Now I will go into describing how the NCO started.

Respect, especially in the Army is a very important value to live by. It is much more than just talking kindly and listening to someone. It is the process of taking into consideration someone’s emotions, feelings and needs. You must also focus on their ideas, thoughts, and preferences. It is showing someone that you value their time; that you care what they have to say. Showing someone respect allows that person to know and acknowledge that you are tracking them and that you comprehend and believe in what they are saying, It is important to allow someone to feel your respect for them. It will ease the conversation and create trust. Behavior and attitude will allow the person demanding respect to feel that respect. When we

Older than any individual group, organization, religion, civilization, culture or military, respect is almost as old, if not as old, as the human race itself. Respect started with prehistoric bands of people, looking for experience and leadership, and remains today as we know it within societies and militaries around the world. Indeed, nothing with an organizational hierarchy, including civilization itself, could exist as we know it today without the ongoing application of respect, in its many forms. This fact is most obvious, and can not be illustrated any further, than by looking at the worlds militaries, and by observing customs, courtesies, and policies of different military organizations, past and present. If one

Everyone wants to be respected. It’s in our nature, but in order to obtain respect, first of all one has to respect oneself. Second, one has to show respect to others in order to gain respect from them. If one doesn’t show respect to someone, that person may often feel blown off and lose respect for you. Respect in my eyes is like a math equation loyalty plus duty equals respect. respect is gained in conducting ones self in a way that others can stand

When talking about the word respect, numerous individuals have no clue what it implies. This word changes its meaning depending on who is inquired. Several people, even ones who comprehend what respect implies, still have no respect for anyone else. A two-way streak that everyone appears to overlook is respect. The word respect has a one-sided meaning to it, as an consequence of all the disrespect around the world. Respect has different opinions, gone through history, and help shape famous quotes.

Loyalty is something that “is part of human beings’ higher nature” (Wooden 26). Loyalty is something that is need to be achieved personally before achieved through others. Michael has many was in which he remained loyal to his team along with his team staying loyal to him. When Michael was not allowed to play baseball, he did not just sit at home in watch TV, he, even though it made him feel worse, “told Mr. M he could coach first base once the game started… [and] when he was on the bench, he was full of chatter, encouraging whoever was at plate, trying to be the best baseball cheerleader in the Bronx on this night”

But one thing they all have in common is they show the respect and honor the soldiers and superiors have for one another. Military courtesies are often very similar to the civilities found in the civilian world as well as daily life. The only difference is that it is mandatory for the courtesies seen in the military to be adhered to and followed by its soldiers. If these courtesies are not followed, the offending soldier can, and almost always will, be punished. This punishment can come in the form of corrective training, known commonly as essays, extra duty and can go as far as court martial, jail time and/or being discharged from the military. In the military, manners and levels of respect help to identify the difference between junior to senior ranking members. Courtesies and customs of the Army have been practiced for hundreds of years. They involve a code of conduct that is mandatory for every member of the army to follow. Some are obviously against the rules of professionalism such as public display of affection in uniform, as is being intoxicated in uniform and exhibiting violent behavior are conducts that are punishable in the military code of conduct. Others are unique codes of behavior that must to be followed in order to present a one of a kind organizational structure to the military as these customs and practices instill and show discipline and

H A R M Y SUPPORT THE ARMY AND YOUR TEAMMATES Loyalty is about supporting your teammates, looking after and helping them, putting their needs before your own, not letting them down, even when the going gets tough. In return, they will do the same for you. However, loyalty does not mean you should cover up for illegal or unlawful acts committed by your teammates as that would show a lack of integrity and moral courage.

We must see that potential. We all need respect, regardless of how immature and gay we behave. We all need others to see our potential and honor it to better encourage us to grow into it. Some respect sound judgement, some strength or power. Some respect altruism, some purposefulness. Parents and teachers may provide initial guidance but what you respect in a person is ultimately your privilege. A Privilege. However skewed my opinion might be the fact is that in most cases respect is earned by the actions towards an individual. All that being said the military works a little different. Respect in the military is demanded of you by your Superior Officers, NCOs and others of same rank that have three months more salt on there collar. This is where not so much the definition but the reason it is given can get shifty. It is when one must absolutely show respect without the normal necessity of actually respecting that person specifically. You are respecting the title held by a male or female that is above you, normally by a pay grade or 4 and in the Commissioned Officers case, on a whole different level than you are as an enlisted man. Not to say that one cannot find an Commissioned Officer or Non Commissioned Officer that actually deserves it for his or her character traits. Because I haven’t met too many Non Commissioned or Commissioned officers that don’t deserve respect for all reasons. Most of the time good leaders are placed in

When veterans are respected they know that everyone are about them. I also think of them being able to have more respect than we do because they risked their lives just for us. Plus, veterans should have equal rights. But most importantly they should be able to go somewhere and have no one look down on them. In my mind veterans should be respected no matter what.

The Army has kind of got it right, in a way. They view respect as a way that we should act towards each other and treat each other. But Respect is still so much more then that. You can not respect just a person, or a rank, or a position, but also someones experience that has led them to where they are. Its more about feelings

Many of the interviewees stressed the importance of this mutual respect, especially Ms. Walbert. In order to accomplish the necessary balance as a leader, you must develop a relationship with the followers, and that relationship must be based on respect. From personal experience, if I don’t feel respected by, for example my tennis teammates or the coaches, I am not motivated to get involved in team activities. It is important for me personally to feel the mutual respect because that is when I perform the best. This shows that all of these concepts, like balance and respect, are

Mutual respect is important for effective leadership as it is a key element in ‘affecting the quality of…work life’ (Faulkner and Laschinger, 2008, p.215). ‘June sees the development of human relationships and treating people as equally significant and part of a team as fundamental to leadership and living’ (p. 293). By treating an individual as equal, a follower is more likely to reciprocate with positive ideas and support, thereby benefiting the
