SHRM

Performance might win quarters, but purpose is the cornerstone of a lasting legacy. In today's workplace - where employee engagement has hit an 11-year low - CEO's can't afford to lead on numbers alone. The leaders of tomorrow understand that true success stems from leading with integrity, values, and a genuine commitment to people. They recognize that a purpose-driven organization, built on empowering individuals, is the foundation for sustainable growth and meaningful results.

As the world becomes more incivil, it’s showing up at work and the effects are multiplying. SHRM’s latest Civility Index shows that the average American worker experiences at least one act of incivility every single day. That’s 223 million daily moments of interruption, dismissal, side-eyes, and shutdowns. The ripple effect? A culture where workplace incivility is rising, costing organizations over $2 billion in lost productivity, absenteeism, and stress. In honor of National Civility Month, SHRM hosted a raw, no-fluff conversation about how we reset the tone, starting with ourselves. Featuring: Tina McCormack Beaty, Chief Marketing & Experience Officer at SHRM Jennifer Dulski, CEO of Rising Team Moderated by Ryan Starks, Head of Marketing at Rising Team Hear the full conversation and explore how small changes in how we treat one another can spark a real shift in workplace culture.

When someone reads your job post or scrolls your careers page, do they see themselves in your story? Too often, language and visuals unintentionally leave people out. And that invisibility has a cost. That’s why CEO and managing partner of international digital agency Digital Revamp Roy Abdo created SEEN, a framework to help HR professionals shape more inclusive storytelling—through every message, image, and touchpoint: 🔹 Scan: Let data show you who’s being overlooked or left out 🔹 Edit: Rework language so it resonates more broadly and meaningfully 🔹 Express: Choose platforms and mediums that meet people where they are 🔹 Notice: Recognize and engage employees in visible, everyday ways—from public appreciation to 1:1 connections Inclusion doesn’t just live in policies. It lives in the stories we tell, and who those stories center. Explore how shifting your lens can shape a workplace where more people feel truly seen: https://shrm.co/dmt2wd.

Mental health should be a key part of workplace conversations, but it isn’t just about policies or initiatives; it’s about creating inclusive environments where everyone feels supported and valued. The second case study in SHRM, the SHRM Foundation, Business Roundtable, and Stand Together's series highlights a powerful example of this approach in action. Kiewit's "Under the Hat" initiative stands out as a game-changer for employee well-being. By embedding mental health within their culture, Kiewit has made conversations about mental health and well-being part of business as usual, cultivating opportunities to unify its workforce around this important topic. Here’s what makes their program remarkable: 🔹 They’re making mental health a part of everyday operations to help break the stigma, promote psychological safety, and foster trust. 🔹 Leadership actively champions these efforts, encouraging engagement at every level. 🔹 Partnerships with competitors and industry leaders amplify their impact, showing that inclusivity and well-being are shared responsibilities. Kiewit's approach proves that prioritizing mental health isn’t just about individual well-being but also about cultivating a safer, more resilient workforce.

It's time for a civility pulse check. With so many policy shifts shaping our workplaces, leaders can't afford to lose sight of something foundational ... Respect. It's our responsibility to set the tone and let our team members know how they are expected to conduct themselves in the workplace. When someone crosses a line, take them aside and gently explain what a more values-aligned action or statement would have looked like. The message is clear: Civility in the workplace makes all the difference. #NationalCiviltyMonth #CivilityAtWork #FutureOfWork #WorkplaceCulture #HR #HumanResources #RespectMatters

What do you think civility looks like? That's the question you want to ask as you begin setting expectations for the sort of respectful workplace you wish to see. By asking it, you're involving your team and letting them help set the tone for civility in your workplace. And then the work is only beginning. Civility won't be part of a mission statement or a paragraph in your employee handbook. It will be a living, breathing element of your culture. It will evolve over time. It will grow and gather its own momentum. But ALWAYS, civility means that teams don't let emotions and outside influences drag their organization down. Implement civility right and you'll strengthen trust, improve communication, and create the conditions for people to do their best work. #CivilityAtWork #SHRM #HR #HumanResources
