Description
A hostile work environment may be illegal, but it also can be a symptom of a much larger problems related to a lack of respect in the workplace and an unhealthy corporate culture. When it comes to a respectful workplace, culture matters. In a survey of over 1300 North American executives, 85% of respondents stated that they believed that a poor culture raises the risk of unethical or illegal behavior (Graham, Grennan, Harvey and Rajgopal, 2019).
This half-day Respectful Workplace Training starts with a discussion of the minimum requirements of anti-harassment and EEOC law and incorporates your organization’s specific policies regarding harassment prevention at work and all the protected characteristics including sex, race, age, religion, national origin, disability, and sexual orientation.
It then address unconscious bias, microaggressions in the workplace, and bystander training. When applicable, content is related to your company’s unique corporate values as well as the individual values of the participants.
This proven harassment workshop is designed for a national audience and is compliant with all state harassment laws.
The instructors are seasoned attorneys, experienced trainers, and skilled facilitators who use stories and humor to make this potentially dry topic engaging, interesting, and relevant.
The proven program is highly experiential with small group interaction, case studies, video vignettes, skill-building exercises, and plenty of time to ask questions.
Participants receive a comprehensive workbook and reference guide they can use as a job aid.

Respectful workplace training helps employees build trust, improve communication, reduce workplace conflict, and strengthen collaboration across teams. Organizations with respectful cultures often see higher employee engagement, stronger retention, better customer experiences, and lower legal and reputational risk. Targeted training that is aligned with strategic priorities and cultural norms also equips managers and employees to recognize inappropriate behaviors early and respond constructively before issues escalate.
Respectful workplace training is valuable for employees at every level of the organization — from frontline staff to senior executives. Managers and leaders often benefit from additional guidance on setting expectations, modeling respectful behavior, handling difficult conversations, and creating psychologically safe environments where employees can perform at their best.
While each workshop is customized to meet unique client goals and objectives, most respectful workplace programs cover workplace communication, unconscious bias, inclusion, harassment prevention, accountability, conflict resolution, and professional conduct. Effective training also focuses on practical workplace scenarios, giving participants actionable strategies to foster collaboration, address concerns appropriately, and contribute to a healthier organizational culture.
A respectful workplace culture directly impacts business outcomes. When employees feel valued and respected, they are more likely to collaborate effectively, share ideas, stay engaged, and remain committed to the organization. Research consistently links respectful workplace environments to increased productivity, stronger innovation, reduced absenteeism, and improved team performance.
To impact on-the-job behavior and performance, respectful workplace training should not be treated as a one-time event. Leading organizations provide ongoing learning through new-hire onboarding, manager development, refresher sessions, and periodic reinforcement tied to evolving workplace expectations and organizational priorities. Continuous reinforcement helps sustain behavioral change and keeps respectful workplace principles embedded in the company culture.
