In this edition, I'm sharing something you can do, read and listen to. Each one will help you build a more harmonious, safe and productive workplace. I hope you find them interesting and valuable.
TOPIC OF THE MONTH
At the very heart of all conflict resolution are two things: emotional intelligence and communication. Good self-awareness and the ability to effectively recognise our emotions and those of others result in more collaborative and positive relationships at work. To help organisations equip their workforce with these skills, I've developed a new workshop, 'How to Manage Difficult Conversations and Communicate Better'. I think you'll love it.?
IN THE NEWS
Are you aware of the recent legislation changes?introducing a positive duty on employers to take reasonable and proportionate measures to eliminate sex discrimination, sexual and sex-based harassment, hostile work environments and victimisation? If not, it's time to read up and take preventative action. I believe these changes reinforce how important it is for workplaces to build a culture of respect. Employers must take a stand and make it clear they will not tolerate this kind of behaviour from anyone in the organisation.??

So I think people are not just motivated to leave by a bad boss, they also have dreams and a career to pursue. If they can't do that here they will be motivated to find somewhere else where they can. If the bad bosses are not dealt with pretty soon your Company will become known a a place where dreams go to die.
