Of the remaining victims, more than a quarter choose to move to another department. These numbers are proof that our approach to disrespectful behavior in the workplace is in dire need of a change. Accountability is a core issue. Anderson notes that “there has been a long history of hospitals not holding doctors accountable.” Many organizations, like Anderson’s for example, are taking a step in the right direction. Adopting a zero tolerance policy toward bullying and disrespectful behavior is an essential move toward reenergizing your workplace culture. Anderson explains that a recent move has even been made within his organization to have all disrespectful behavior complaints forwarded to the CEO and board of directors. “This holds people within the organization—nurses, physicians, and administration alike—accountable for their actions. It sends a strong message to everyone that hostility, intimidation, and bullying will be met with real accountability and consequences. ” Be aware of your organizations position on disrespectful behavior and the policies in place to protect you. Next time you are faced with a situation, try stepping into your bully’s reality. Following the approach outlined here, craft a conversation that will save your organization and earn you instant respect. 384745_American.indd 1 6/9/08 1 “How to Save a Marriage Before It Starts,” Les and Leslie Parrot 2 “You Can’t Talk to Me That Way!—Stopping Toxic Language in the Workplace,” 4:24:12 PM Arthur H.
