Leadership First reposted this
When there is a high level of trust and respect in any environment, loyalty is extremely high, and employees become very confident because people are treated with courtesy and kindness. According to Maureen Wild, when employees respect each other and get along in the workplace, it's amazing how productivity increases, morale increases, and employees are more courteous to customers. A professional and respectful work culture encourages productivity and growth; breeds a healthy, high-trust environment while allowing everyone to become the very best version of themselves. Unfortunately, the opposite is also true; if a leader shows no respect for their team, the organization will become toxic, trust will be eroded, the best people will leave, and the organization will eventually become irrelevant. This is why influential leaders extend a Circle of Safety to include every single person on their team. All forms of discrimination, bullying and gossiping are rejected, and as a result, the organization becomes very influential and very profitable. - Grab your copy now of our Amazon Bestseller, "Unlock The Hidden Leader, Become The Leader You Were Destined To Be."

Culture always shows up in the bottom line. High-trust teams always outperform!

Love this, That's the only way you love your team
Fostering a culture of trust, respect, and psychological safety unlocks teams' full potential, fueling loyalty, productivity, and organizational growth.
A toxic environment's impact is so real. Seeing firsthand how respect (or lack thereof) directly affects retention and the bottom line. Thanks for highlighting this!
Absolutely agree
Respect brings positive energy and enthusiasm
Completly true! 🔥 This is spot on. Trust and respect aren’t just “nice-to-haves” in a workplace; they’re performance tools. As a life coach working with teams and leaders, I’ve seen firsthand how emotional intelligence fuels loyalty, morale, & retention. When employees feel psychologically safe & seen, they don’t just perform; they care & thrive. - When leaders model courtesy, communication, & care, it sets a tone that trickles into every interaction with patients, clients, & coworkers. That’s the kind of culture that doesn’t just retain talent, it elevates it. Having led teams as a healthcare supervisor, I’ve experienced this dynamic up close. The cost of toxicity? You’ll never measure it on a spreadsheet, but you’ll feel it in every hallway conversation & exit interview. - Investing in mindset, emotional intelligence, & human-first leadership isn’t soft; it’s SMART HONEY. Because that’s how you build teams that last. Appreciate this powerful share! 💜
Yes dear give respect, take respect is old saying but to glue a whole organization you need to give good paychecks can't rely solely on showing kindness.😇

1hEin respektvoller Umgang entfaltet seine Wirkung nicht nur in harmonischen Momenten, sondern gerade dann, wenn Kritik nötig wird. Führung wirkt dann authentisch, wenn sie auch in Spannungen ihre Haltung bewahrt. Wer aus innerer Klarheit und aufrichtiger Wertschätzung handelt, schafft Vertrauen, das auch in schwierigen Situationen trägt. Echte Integrität zeigt sich nicht im Konsens, sondern in der Konsequenz.
