Handle with care: How to lead through respect
In today’s workplace, respect is not optional — it’s a bottom-line requirement.
Yet, harassment remains one of the thorniest problems of the workplace, whether you’re the one lodging a complaint or you have to deal with that complaint.
The legal ramifications are daunting for everyone when sticky issues like this are raised, but morale in your workplace also comes into play. It all gets easier if you know the laws and develop the skills to make them work for you.
