Building on last week\u2019s thoughts about motivators in the workplace we want to add one more:\u00a0respect<\/i>.<\/span>

Respect, like trust, is not a given and it\u2019s something that needs to become a constant in our lives. As leaders, this in part means that we treat all colleagues, partners, and clients with respect regardless of their title, position, or the relationship we have with them. We listen, and we acknowledge what they have to share.<\/span>

A recent\u00a0Gallup poll<\/a>\u00a0<\/span>reported that roughly 40% of U.S. employees feel respected at work; that means that 60% do not!\u00a0Have you noticed signs in a wide variety of venues (ranging from doctor\u2019s offices, to restaurants, to small and large businesses) requesting their staff and employees be treated respectfully? Do we really need to be reminded? Apparently, we do!<\/span>

A respectful workplace is a safe environment that does not allow toxic behaviors which may include harassment, gossiping, unhealthy communications, and exclusion.<\/span>

We have the ability, and must, address any behaviors that are detrimental to our work culture. We must\u00a0live and lead with integrity and link ALL our actions and behaviors to our vision and the tasks required to meet our goals.<\/span>

This also includes valuing and leveraging the magic dust\u2122 (the qualities, skills, and strengths) of our team members, and show them appreciation for the value they provide.<\/span>

Not having a culture of respect is detrimental and impacts attrition, morale, and productivity. This quote sums up our role as leaders nicely:<\/span>
True leaders always practice\u00a0the\u00a0three R\u2019s<\/span><\/div>
Respect\u00a0for\u00a0self,\u00a0Respect\u00a0for\u00a0others,\u00a0Responsibility\u00a0for\u00a0all their actions<\/span><\/div>
–Anonymous<\/span><\/div>
\u00a0<\/div>Do you lead with respect?<\/span>

<\/div>Sincerely,<\/span><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

Organizations that nourish respect among their employees are typically more profitable, and people who work there are much happier.<\/span>
