Hear from a colleague on what Respect means to them.
¡°
¡°It¡¯s been quite fulfilling to see the range of people around the University lighting up from all different areas, from the Directorates, from Operations, from different Schools and Faculties. It¡¯s been really good to see that there are a lot of people who have the same outlook on life and want to treat people in their society in the same way.¡°

I demonstrate Respect when I...
- treat everyone equally, fairly and with dignity regardless of their opinions, background or grade
- listen to the views of others so that the best way forward can be found
- say thank you and give credit where it is due?
- trust colleagues to do their job?
- recognise that each individual’s circumstances are different and display empathy and support work life balance
- am authentic in how I behave towards others
I do not demonstrate Respect when I¡
- fail to value equality and diversity
- respond negatively to and or fail to act on constructive feedback
- only involve colleagues who support my own views in order to achieve my goals?
