Mason Nation: Civility In Action

Faculty-Staff Enrichment Day

October 26, 2011

We are excited to be addressing the important topic of civility at this year's annual Faculty-Staff Enrichment Day. Civility is a key ingredient in making sure we are able to lead a more productive and fulfilling life both in and out of the workplace. However, The Civility in America 2011 poll of 1,000 adults found 43% of Americans say they've experienced incivility at work, and 38% believe the workplace is increasingly disrespectful. What does this mean for each of us? That we have an opportunity to be a part of the solution and work to create and sustain a culture of civility at Mason, helping to decrease conflict and ensure it is not a drain on our productivity, creativity, or well being. This year's Faculty-Staff Enrichment Day will focus on providing you with insights and practical tools to empower you to be an emissary of civility at Mason.
