- Today, we see a wide range of behaviors that demonstrate a lack of respect and civility,
both inside and outside of the workplace. Studies and polls indicate that these behaviors
negatively impact employees and organizations. This training will focus on ways that
each of us can have a positive influence on respect in our day-to-day interactions.
It will provide information and practical tips that we can readily apply on topics
that include understanding triggers that lead to incivility, demonstrating respect
in our communications and actions, responding to and resolving conflicts, and adjusting
our focus. Please register by going to Learning Curve at http://learningcurve.memphis.edu.
