How to Cultivate Respect in Your Organization. A little respect goes a long way.
In fact, when it comes to addressing conflict or tension, our research team recently found that treating people with respect on a daily basis is one of the most helpful things a leader can do. “At work and in our communities, we are often faced with uncertainty or tension around our differences,” says CCL’s Kelly Hannum, co-author of our research on Leading Across Differences. That’s why a key challenge for leaders is to help establish and nurture respectful relationships among many different groups. 3 Indicators of Respect As part of this research, a survey of 3,041 individuals across 10 countries revealed that being respectful is not just helpful when addressing conflicts between groups; it’s also viewed as a critical leadership responsibility. “Treating people with respect seems obvious, but it may not be as intuitive as you think,” Hannum explains.
