2.3 Working Inclusively and Biulding Positive Relationships at Work
Working Inclusively:
In my approach to working inclusively, I prioritize valuing each person as an individual and recognizing the importance of diversity in our team. I actively seek out and listen to diverse views and opinions, ensuring that everyone feels heard and respected. One of the methods I use is creating an open environment where team members feel comfortable sharing their ideas and perspectives. I have received feedback from a colleague who highlighted my ability to make everyone feel included during meetings. They mentioned that I consistently ensure that quieter voices are encouraged to contribute, which helps in creating a balanced discussion. Reflecting on this, I recognize that my efforts to foster inclusivity have positively impacted our team’s dynamics, making collaboration more effective. However, I also realize that I could improve by being more proactive in reaching out to individuals outside of formal meetings to gather their insights.
Building Positive Working Relationships:
Building positive working relationships is another area where I focus on creating trust and providing support when needed. I believe that mutual respect and understanding are the foundations of strong relationships. I make it a point to show appreciation for my colleagues’ contributions and offer help whenever someone faces challenges. Feedback from a team member mentioned my approachability and willingness to assist, which they felt contributed to a more supportive and collaborative environment. Reflecting on this feedback, I recognize that my approach to building positive relationships has been effective in fostering a strong sense of teamwork. However, I also acknowledge that I can further enhance these relationships by being more consistent in providing feedback and recognition, not just when things are going well, but also when there’s room for improvement.
