The Issue Of Disrespect At The Workplace, By An Examination Of The Impacting Forces

Respect as a virtue is a simple virtue and should be followed at all times in daily life. In a short definition respect means treating others, human or otherwise, in a dignified manner; however, this does not mean that everyone on Earth as royalty. As Marshall puts it, “respect is a close relative of tolerance (Marshall 44).” Following this further the author is acknowledging that all humans will always have our

Rudeness is indeed a growing problem and it is only getting worst. As you mentioned, rudeness comes in a variety of ways, such as, annoying behavior, intolerable actions, sarcastic and degrading remarks, shouting and even the use of swearwords. "Rudeness breeds more rudeness and metastasizes into social ugliness" (Hama, 2011). Rudeness can become a domino effect where people feed off that negative energy and retaliate rather than be an employee or customer. I personally been on the receiving end of rudeness as an employee and as a customer and I sometimes been a victim of feeding into the negativity. My biggest pet peeves is respect me as long as I am respecting you. I do not care if you do not like be because of my race, gender, height, or nail color, but as long as I am treating you like a human being, I deserve to be treated in that same manner.

At the same time, workplace incivility happens between colleagues and between manager and subordinates, it is happening almost every day in healthcare settings such as in hospital and clinics where workers are directly uncivil to disrespect each other. For instance, when a nurse is deviant or does not follow the supervisor intensely because of differences in opinion or an act of retaliation when the manager is being rude, treating their staff with rough words, discourtesy, and lack respect to his staff, there are also times when the uncivil behavior is not intentional or

I define respect as the ability to recognize and regard a person's boundaries, limits, and autonomy in both their personal and professional spheres of life. Appropriate interactions are based on this definition of respect. A senior

What is respect? Is the way people should be treated, how you would want to be treated, and should it come naturally or should it be taught? Respect is what are world is built on, I feel that the phrases like “reap what you sow” explain what respect works like. For example to when I am rude to someone they tend to be rude back, the same works with respect. When being disrespectful to someone you most likely will disrespect you right back. Not everyone follows these thoughts of respect. Actions like these can lead to dangerous places, people begin to break boundaries that were once built on respect.

Respect in partnership is important in partnership working as it helps partners work together to achieve the common goals which the relationship is built on

These were my eighth (10/31) and ninth (11/06) night shifts following Meagan on the medical/surgical floor at Rady Children’s Hospital. On the first Friday, the floor started out with 29 patients, 14 nurses, and no health unit coordinator (H.U.C.) or patient care assistant (P.C.A.) to run the front desk. Since there was no one in charge of the front desk, the charge nurse, Meagan, and I worked together to answer all of the phone calls and meet all of the patients’ requests while simultaneously taking care of all their other responsibilities to their assigned patients. The atmosphere of the floor felt hectic everywhere, but since everyone was working together so well, all calls were answered and patients requests met safely and in a timely manner. On my second Friday shift, Meagan was the charge nurse. This was my second time following her while she was in charge. There were 30 patients and 11 nurses on the floor. The floor had to float 5 nurses to other units and something was different about their pay for the night which created quite a bit of drama and was a very “hot topic” throughout the night. Several of the nurses spent the majority of the night complaining about and debating the situation. In this journal, I will discuss the topic of humility.

Therapist diverted from plan to meet with individual, mom, and grandmother to discuss individual disrespectful behavior. Mom states individual did not get upset or angry at his teacher, but he did get upset with his therapist. Therapist, mom, and grandmother discuss section therapist and individual had about him disturbing class. Individual states he told a girl to shut up because she told him to shut up first. Therapist explained to mom and grandmother that the session was only about individual disturbing his class and we worked on strategies to improve his anger behavior towards adults and his peers. Grandmother states she understands and will work with individual on his anger behavior problems. Individual states he will do better in

If you want to get somewhere in life you have to be respectful. If you are the boss you are respectful same as if you are the worker. Being respectful is the first step to greatness. If you can’t show respect then you should be somewhere that doesn't care about respect which is nowhere. You should not have to ask how to be respectful, you should teach yourself. If a boss was trying to pick between two people to fire and one of them was very respectful

Staff Disrespect: One thing that is sometimes overlooked as an owner is that even though you are an owner, you have to show respect to your players, your staff, and your potential staff. If you disrespect them, insult them, yell at them, or just just plain rude to them, then they might leave you, and then tell others that, which would not be good for you.

So the burning question arises: Should respect be given to everyone no matter what, or is it something that needs to be earned? I believe that respect is a given. Like a natural right, it is born with it, and it is your choice whether you can gain more or lose it. People around the world have been fighting all around the world for equality. Isn't that the same as respect? We have been fighting for respect this whole time, so why should we suddenly discriminate every organism on this planet. Everyone has a side of insecurity and if we keep making people feel ashamed of that, there would be no respect. Respect is what separates me from you, him from her. But shouldn’t everyone get respect no matter the case? From CEOs to retail workers?

What does a person think of when they heard the word civility? For some, it might mean being respectful to you fellow man. The word can also mean to be friendly or not hostile to someone else. Being friendly to others is something that is taught to us at a young age. This then brings up the question, if we are taught to treat others with respect at a young age, what changes when we become adults? In the workplace it seems that people are often treated horribly or differently. Does the competitive nature of the workplace cause this hostility and uncivility? Could it also be that people just don’t care enough to treat others with respect? These questions plus others are difficult to answer and can sometimes start a whole new line of questions about the workplace. Bosses can sometimes treat their employees with disrespect because they feel the employees are beneath them and can say or do anything to them. Employees can treat each other horribly because of issues or maybe trying to get a certain promotion. The might treat another person because of their race, gender, or sexual orientation. The world is filled with horrible people and this type of uncivility can have a sever effect on not only people but the organization as well. The article by Pearson and Porath takes a look at uncivility in the workplace and how it can damage an organization. By examining the article we can see why unicity is uncalled for and why the issue must be dealt with sooner rather than later.

            The term “respect” has already shown up various times in this piece; that is because it is the key element of classroom management. A classroom founded on respect creates an open and safe environment where the students can have free-exchange of ideas with one another and the teacher. This aspect of management requires constant and consistent enforcement and modeling. Defining what is respectful from the beginning and giving a rationale for treating others with respect is a great way to start.

Respect – The process of influencing goes beyond the use of rank, hierarchy or authority as the primary source of motivation to achieve the outcomes. The leader has to exhibit the correct values, act in a way and adopt a style that is consistent with his values.
