2. Dignify Differences in People
Tip

3. 3
Respect All Co-workers
• It’s easy to respect co-
workers who share your
background, ethnicity and
attitudes.
• The challenge comes
when you work with
people who are not like
you—at least on the
surface.
• You may allow your
biases to interfere and
draw certain conclusions
as a result.

4. 4
Tolerance
• Tolerance is the
cornerstone of a
respectful workplace.
• Colleagues accept
differences in each
other rather than fear
them.
• They look past skin
color, religion and
other factors in an
effort to know the
actual person.

5. 5
First Impressions
• Some people fail to
overcome their negative
first impressions of
others.
• These initial judgments,
often based on one’s
prejudices or
preconceived notions,
can cloud our
ability to treat everyone
with dignity, fairness
and open-mindedness.

6. 6
Building Bonds
• Listen for understanding,
not agreement.
• Look past differences –
focus on understanding
views and perspectives.
• Appreciate how others
see the world.
• Avoid tuning out if
someone makes a
comment that you deem
incorrect – probe to learn
why the speaker thinks
that way.

7. 7
Avoid Labels
• Monitor your speech
patterns and thinking
style to check whether
you label people.
• Beware of adopting the
“Jess is an X and all Xs
are like that” mentality.
• Seemingly harmless
labeling can degenerate
into dismissive and
derogatory remarks.

8. 8
Tip
• If you disagree with
someone’s views, react
with curiosity rather than
defensiveness.
• Ask at least one earnest,
non-threatening question
to dig for more
information.
• Be willing to change your
mind if the facts warrant
it.

9. 9
It’s True
• We tend to perceive
people through
constructs (tall-short,
slim-pudgy, etc.).
• Constructs can
subconsciously
trigger unfair
impressions such as
“lazy” and “sloppy.”
• Withhold judgment
and you’ll expand
your frame of
reference.

10. 10
True or False?
• If you hear a joke that could
be hurtful to others, you
should speak up.
• TRUE
– It’s your responsibility to
reject offensive jokes.
– If you don’t voice your
objection right away, your
silence implies consent.
– Permitting cruel jokes—even
once—breeds a less
tolerant, more divisive
workplace.
