Personal pronouns are the words that we use to refer to ourselves and others in place of names, such as he, she, they, etc. These pronouns are not just grammatical markers, but also expressions of identity and respect. Using the correct personal pronouns for someone shows that you acknowledge and value their gender identity, which may or may not align with their biological sex or appearance. Using the wrong personal pronouns for someone, intentionally or unintentionally, can cause them to feel invalidated, disrespected, or even discriminated against.

Trust is the foundation of any successful organization. Trust means that employees have confidence in each other's abilities, intentions, and actions. Trust also means that employees feel safe to express their opinions, share their ideas, and collaborate with their colleagues. Leaders play a crucial role in promoting trust in the workplace by setting an example through their behavior and fostering a culture of mutual respect and collaboration.

Belonging is that feeling of security and support - a sense of inclusion and acceptance within a group. It’s when an individual can bring their authentic self to work. By creating genuine feelings of belonging for all, an organization improves both engagement and performance. In today's increasingly diverse workplace, it's more important than ever for organizations to cultivate a culture of belonging. That’s a place in which all employees feel included, respected, and valued, regardless of their race, gender, age, religion, sexual orientation, or any other personal characteristic. When employees feel like they belong, they are more likely to be engaged, motivated, and committed to their work, which benefits our organization as a whole.

If yes…then dig deep! Find the strength and channel your energy into a plan to overcome and PREVAIL!

An armed intruder situation is something few of us have prepared for. And it’s that lack of preparation that raises anxiety… and fear. As an administrator, teacher or staff member… others look to you for help… especially in times of need. One of the times you may be asked to lead is when the unthinkable happens. It may help you to think of preparing for an armed intruder event in the same way that you prepare your staff or students for a fire, an earthquake or tornado. By taking a few minutes to train for one of these events, you know what to do in the very unlikely event that it actually happens. The exact same thing holds true when preparing for an armed intruder event.

Meet the Chicago Bystander Training Requirement! Research tells us that as many as 80% of women and 20% of men experience some form of harassment in the workplace. Organizations want productive and engaged employees who contribute to the bottom line… and one aggressive employee can ruin it all. There are real consequences associated with crossing the line at work and more than money is what’s at stake. The effects of harassment, discrimination and abusive conduct can damage our organization’s morale, brand, and leave targeted employees unproductive and fearful.

When workplace respect is prioritized and consistently practiced, it creates a positive, inclusive, and supportive environment, leading to increased job satisfaction, productivity, and overall well-being of the workforce.
