General Notes/Comments
You might think your organization runs smoothly, or you might think it has a lot of problems. You may do or see things that make you stop and think. But just like you wouldn’t try to figure out a patient’s health based on what you see, you shouldn’t try to figure out how healthy your workplace is based on what you see and what you think. There are often things you see as problems that other people don’t, and problems may go much deeper than leadership realizes.
You may think your current organization operates seamlessly, or you may feel it has many issues. You may experience or even observe things that give you pause. Yet, much as you wouldn’t try to determine the health of a patient through mere observation, you should not attempt to gauge the health of your work environment based on observation and opinion. Often, there are issues you perceive as problems that others do not; similarly, issues may run much deeper than leadership recognizes.
There are many factors and measures that may impact organizational health. Among these is civility. While an organization can institute policies designed to promote such things as civility, how can it be sure these are managed effectively? In this Discussion, you will examine the use of tools in measuring workplace civility.
To Prepare:
• Review the Resources and examine the Clark Healthy Workplace Inventory, found on page 20 of Clark (2015).
• Review and complete the Work Environment Assessment Template in the Resources.
