Leading Positive Workplace Behaviour - Regional Program 2024

Positive workplace behaviour is critical for an effective workplace culture. Workplace bullying, harassment and discrimination are issues that can erode a positive productive culture and create serious risks for all, yet too often we avoid dealing with these behaviours or allegations only to see them escalate. Workplaces that experience real or perceived workplace bullying, harassment or discrimination are at risk of lower productivity, poor morale, higher turnover, poor employer reputation and other potential great costs to the organisation. It is essential that managers, leaders and staff are equipped to effectively manage these issues. This program will equip participants with both the knowledge and skills to be able to proactively prevent these issues arising, effectively deal with issues which do arise and to role model and manage overall standards.

Following the program participants will be able to:

• Explore why appropriate workplace behaviour is important in a contemporary workplace
• Understand relevant legislation and potential personal liability
• Identify behaviours likely to constitute unlawful workplace discrimination, harassment and bullying
• Reflect on and evaluate their current workplace practices and attitudes (above and below the line behaviour)
• Be confident to communicate and role model expectations around these policies to employees
• Know what is and isn’t bullying, discrimination and harassment
• Have strategies to promote a positive and inclusive workplace culture
• Explore the impact of unconscious bias on a diverse and inclusive culture
• Develop strategies to manage their own bias
• Have a clear process for support and escalation
