Respecting Differences In the Workplace

Please refer to the Wake the Dream program website for more informal 
opportunities to learn about different cultures, peoples and ideas. 

The following tips may help you to respect differences in your co-workers 
and improve work relationships:

1.  Acknowledge prejudices and stereotypes.

2.  Be sensitive to the impact we have on others. 

3.  Use language that does not demean, exclude or offend anyone.

4.  Act towards others from a basis of sincere respect for their dignity and feelings.

5.  Make it a personal responsibility to see that each and every employee is a welcomed, respected and integrated member of the group.

6.  Communicate openly and honestly.

7.  Embrace diversity.

8.  Build relationships with those different from ourselves.
