Should we refuse to deal with less-than-desirable people?

It is an in-built human instinct within all of us to move away from painful experiences and seek pleasant ones, as it is necessary for our self-protection and growth.

The wisdom passed down through generations is that we should not associate or socialise with undesirable people in society, as they have the potential of pulling us down. We should be ruthless in saying no to spending time with such people, and as the saying goes – it is better to have an intelligent enemy than a foolish friend.

Ninda (Slander): Cultivating a Respectful Workplace

The Guru Granth Sahib, the sacred text of Sikhism, emphasizes the importance of Ninda (Slander). It goes beyond simply avoiding gossip; it's a call to cultivate a respectful and positive work environment. In today's interconnected world, where negativity can spread quickly, Ninda offers valuable guidance for fostering trust, collaboration, and a more fulfilling work experience.

The Harms of Ninda:

Ninda, or slander, involves spreading negativity about someone, often through gossip, rumours, or unfounded criticism. It can damage reputations, erode trust, and create a toxic work environment. Here's how Ninda can be detrimental:

Reduced Morale: When negativity spreads, it can demotivate employees and create a climate of fear and anxiety.

Damaged Relationships: Gossip can damage trust between colleagues and make collaboration difficult.

Loss of Productivity: Engaging in or being around negativity can distract from work and reduce productivity.

Legal Issues: In some cases, slander can lead to legal repercussions.

The Power of Positivity:

Ninda encourages a shift towards positive communication. By focusing on the good in others and fostering a respectful atmosphere, we create a workplace where everyone feels valued and supported. Here are the benefits of a positive work environment:

Increased Morale: A positive environment boosts employee morale and satisfaction, leading to higher productivity and engagement.

Stronger Relationships: Respectful communication fosters trust and collaboration, leading to stronger relationships between colleagues.

Improved Problem-Solving: A positive environment encourages open communication and allows for better problem-solving as a team.

Reduced Stress: A workplace free from negativity fosters a sense of well-being and reduces stress levels for employees.

Practicing Ninda in the Workplace:

Here are some ways to embody the spirit of Ninda and cultivate a respectful workplace:

Think Before You Speak: Consider the impact of your words before speaking. Is what you're about to say helpful or constructive?

Assume Positive Intent: Often, perceived negativity stems from misunderstandings. Try to understand the situation and the person's intent before jumping to conclusions.

Address Concerns Directly: If you have an issue with a colleague, address it directly with them in a respectful and private manner.

Focus on the Positive: Make a conscious effort to compliment colleagues, celebrate successes, and offer encouragement.

Be a Role Model: Set a positive example by practicing respectful communication and avoiding negativity yourself.

Ninda Toolkit for a Respectful Workplace:

The Three Sieve Test: Before sharing information about someone, consider the "Three Sieve Test" attributed to Socrates. Ask yourself: Is it true? Is it kind? Is it necessary? If the answer isn't yes to all three, don't share it.

Positive Gossip: Instead of gossiping about others, make a conscious effort to spread positive stories about colleagues and their accomplishments.

Assume Positive Intent: Don't jump to conclusions about someone's motives. Give colleagues the benefit of the doubt and try to understand their perspective.

Focus on Solutions: If you witness negativity or conflict, don't just complain. Look for ways to contribute to a solution.

Be a Role Model: By consistently demonstrating respectful communication, you can inspire others to do the same.

Remember, change starts with you. By embodying the principles of Ninda, you can create a ripple effect, inspiring others to do the same. A more respectful and positive workplace benefits everyone, leading to increased collaboration, improved productivity, and a more enjoyable work experience.

The Guru Granth Sahib offers this powerful teaching:

"Speak sweetly, even in anger. Sweet speech is always pleasing."

Let these words guide your interactions and contribute to building a workplace where respect and positivity flourish.

Ninda is a continuous practice. There will be times when negativity arises. The key is to be mindful of your words and actions, and actively contribute to a more positive and respectful work environment. By following these steps and embodying the spirit of Ninda, you can create a workplace where everyone feels valued, respected, and empowered to do their best work.

A respectful workplace pays off in many ways, including greater productivity, engagement and creativity. INTRODUCTION “The rising problem of workplace incivility warrants immediate attention because uncivil workplace behaviour can affect the entire organisation negatively by poisoning workers’ psychological and physical wellbeing, learning motivation, and productivity. The unfortunate organisational climate this situation creates can contribute ultimately to an organisation’s inability to remain competitive.“ DEFINING INCIVILITY One of the most widely cited definitions of incivility, which will also be used for this review, was forwarded I define incivility as: “The exchange of seemingly inconsequential inconsiderate words and deeds that violate conventional norms of workplace conduct.” #workplacebehaviour #civility #incivility #organisation #respectfulworkplaces #educate #management #womeninbusiness #ceo #civilitymatters #doyenne #placeofbusiness #melbourne #thinkbeforeyouact #kindness #thankyou (at Melbourne, Victoria, Australia)
