Incivility Heating Up This Summer: Make Your Workplace a Refuge

In an era marked by increasing social discord, business leaders have a unique opportunity—and responsibility—to create workplaces that serve as bastions of civility.

In this episode of the People + Strategy podcast, Rhodes joins host Mo Fathelbab to discuss how to enhance workplace culture—from the importance of giving employees a voice to how community involvement can create a sense of belonging.

 

Amid the renewed energy of the U.S. labor movement and a re-evaluation of what work means, organizations are being forced to evolve their labor playbooks. This issue provides fresh insights on rethinking that employer-employee relationship. Plus, you'll find advice on cybersecurity, managing incivility and more.

The July 2024 EN:Insights Forum examined changes in employee benefits brought on as a result of the Great Resignation and the post-pandemic labor landscape, leading to new regulations and changed employee priorities.

Trends & Thought Leadership

In an era marked by increasing social discord, business leaders have a unique opportunity—and responsibility—to create workplaces that serve as bastions of civility. As we approach the 2024 presidential election, a time when societal tensions often reach their peak, this imperative becomes even more critical.

​Last month’s SHRM Annual Conference & Expo 2024 (SHRM24) in Chicago attracted the world’s largest gathering of HR professionals under one roof. SHRM24 also included a separate “conference within a conference”—the SHRM Executive Network Experience (ENX).

The recent breakthroughs in AI are also ushering in an era of deepfakes—incredibly realistic (but phony) images, video, and audio that are wreaking havoc online. And as the cost and access barriers to deepfake technology fall, HR leaders will increasingly be at the forefront of dealing with this issue in workplace settings.

The responsibility for creating an inclusive workplace culture is typically pushed down to managers. Here are some often-overlooked steps that CHROs and other executives can take to drive this organizational change.
