Civility in the Workplace

Civility in the workplace is something we often notice only when it isn’t there. This workshop asks participants to define civility in their own terms and context and challenges them to explore how small actions can build and sustain a thriving workplace culture. With incivility increasingly cited as a workplace problem, time considering just what civility looks like and how we can encourage it is time well invested.
