The Cost of Workplace Incivility
Half of U.S. nurses bullied on the jobCOLUMBUS, Ohio, March 24, 2008 (UPI) – More than half of U.S. nurses have been bullied at work and where nurses are bullied, the quality of patient care declines, a study found.
A survey by the Joint Commission on Accreditation of Healthcare Organizations found more than 50 percent of nurses had been bullied at work and more than 90 percent said they had witnessed abusive behavior. Most verbal abuse to nurses is instigated by physicians, yet abuse from fellow nurses is the second most common type.

When the Bully Sits in the Next Cubicle
An eye roll, a glare, a dismissive snort — these are the tactics of the workplace bully. They don’t sound like much, but that’s why they are so insidious. How do you complain to human resources that your boss is picking on you? Who cares that a co-worker won’t return your phone calls?

Activity #2: Digital Collage: +
• This exercise is a creative beginning to our process of identifying what we consider to be respectful.
• Click here to access Writeboard (the password is “leadon”) or go back to Blackboard under the virtual seminar and access the linkABOUT THE TOOLS USED:Writeboard is used to collaboratively create and edit a text document. We will use this tool like Louise's post-it note exercise to collect examples of a characteristic or behavior that you think are important for a culture of respect.
YouTube is a searchable database of user-generated video content. You will use this site to find a video that represents one of your attributes of a respectful culture.

How do you identify others’ needs and wants at work?

The Golden RuleThe Golden Rule – “Do unto others as you would have them do unto you” -- is valid in many situations. For example, if you don't like to be interrupted, don't interrupt other people.
The Rule really concerns realizing that if you don't like something to happen to you, other people probably also would not like it happening to them either. It is being considerate of other peoples' feelings.

11
When the Rule breaks downCultural competency and a general sensitivity to others’ wants and needs calls for a reworking of the Golden Rule. Simply put: People may not like what you like, and assuming they do may do more harm than good.
For example:You may love chocolates and be happy if someone gave you some as a gift. But to give a box of chocolates to a person who is on a diet may not be as appreciated.
Also, think of the Boy Scout who firmly takes the arm of an old lady and helps her across the street, only to find that she didn't want to cross the street.

Platinum RuleApplying the Platinum Rule™ is much more valuable and useful to other people. "Do unto others as they would do unto themselves" means you have listened and observed what the other person wants or needs, and you then try to satisfy those needs.
People know what they want or need. If you can determine those desires and satisfy them, you do a much greater service than giving them what you care about. The "Platinum Rule" expression was coined by and is a trademark of Dr. Tony Alessandra (www.platinumrule.com)

From Golden to PlatinumApply the Golden Rule to avoid harming others, but also apply the Platinum Rule to provide them things that they value or that are important to them.

Activity #4: Helpful emotions in the workplace

•Second, address the concern, not the emotion.

If we disagree with someone, how can we interact in ways that stimulate positive emotions in both of us?

15
Core Concern: Appreciation• Appreciation – Feeling unappreciated puts
people down. We can appreciate others by understanding their point of view; finding merit in what they think, feel, or do; and communicating our understanding through words or action. We can appreciate ourselves too.
• Affiliation• Autonomy• Status• Role

16
Core Concern: Affiliation• Appreciation• Affiliation – Rather than having each person feel
alone and disconnected, we can try to build structural connections as colleagues and personal connections as confidantes.
• Autonomy• Status• Role

17
Core Concern: Autonomy• Appreciation• Affiliation• Autonomy – Recognize that everyone wants
freedom to affect or make a great many decisions. We can expand our autonomy and avoid impinging upon theirs.
• Status• Role

18
Core Concern: Status• Appreciation• Affiliation• Autonomy• Status – No one likes to feel demeaned. Rather
than compete with others over who has the higher social status, we can acknowledge everyone's areas of particular status, including our own.
• Role

19
Core Concern: Role• Appreciation• Affiliation• Autonomy• Status• Role – An unfulfilling role leaves us feeling
trivialized and unengaged. Yet we are free to choose the roles that help us and others work together. And we can expand the activities within any role to make them fulfilling.
