Building on Respect
If you are in a library, you don’t talk loudly out of respect.
Respect for others is the foundation of our
civilized culture.
If you own a dog, you keep it off your neighbors’ lawn out of respect.
3
Respect
The attention, regard, and
consideration given to people
and their rights, property, and
ideas
4
Respect means accepting
differences—tolerating and valuing
other people and their customs,
culture, attitudes, and beliefs.

Establishing and Demonstrating Mutual
Respect
You may have heard some people say that “respect is earned.” To be effective, a leader must earn respect from the members of his or her group.
8
Americans believe
that every human
being has basic,
inherent value and
rights.
9
The Declaration of Independence...
"...all men are created equal...with
certain unalienable Rights…"
9
10
This means that people don’t need to “earn”
these things; they are born with them and
cannot justly be deprived of them.
10
11
As a citizen, you are
obliged to respect the
rights of others;
likewise, they as citizens
are obliged to do the
same for you.
11
12
Respect must be returned; it must be mutual. It is the two-way relationship that develops after the lines of communication are open and trust develops between people or groups.
13
Mutual respect is what makes all relationships run smoothly—between friends, student and teacher, husband and wife, or any other group of people.

16
People develop respect for others when they
feel that others respect their personal
dignity.
17
The internal strength that helps
people feel connected,
worthwhile, and valued
Personal Dignity
18
Personal dignity is closely linked to a
person’s self-worth. A lack of respect
breaks down personal dignity.
19
A breakdown of respect leads to a number
of negative social behaviors, including:
• Crime
• Suicide• Politicaldiscontent
• Familydisruption
• Substanceabuse
• Childneglect
20
Respect is a powerful
force, and a society
cannot function if its
members do not
establish and practice
mutual respect.
21
Can you think of any
examples of societies
or groups in which a
lack of mutual respect
led to upheaval or
disaster?

24
Ways of Showing Respect
The easiest way to show respect is simply
to be courteous or use your manners.
25
Showing respect can be as simple as saying:
• “Please” when you ask for something
• “Thank you” when you receive something
• “Excuse me” if you accidentally bump into
someone
• “Yes (or no) sir” or “Yes (or no) ma’am” to
adults
• “Good morning” or “Good afternoon,”
especially to people older than you are.
26
Other examples of personal respect include:
• Holding the door for an elderly person or a
child
• Standing when an older person enters the
room
• Not interrupting people
• Not using a cell phone while you’re
conversing with someone face-to-face
27
• Not chewing gum or eating loudly while
conversing with someone
• Taking off your hat or cap when you’re
indoors
• Taking off a glove before you shake
someone’s hand
• Removing your sunglasses before
speaking to someone.
Other examples of personal respect include:
28
You show respect on a professional as well
as personal basis by:
• Dealing with people in a cooperative way
• Communicating clearly
• Listening actively
• Giving constructive feedback
• Being flexible
• Creating opportunities to teach and learn
29
• Sharing behaviors and feelings
• Viewing situations as win-win scenarios
• Using inclusive language (for example,
saying “we” instead of “you” or “they”).

The Values of Tolerance and Understanding
Tolerance means understanding and standing up for people’s differences and helping ensure that everyone receives equal treatment.
35
Respect for people’s differences
and values
Tolerance
36
You might say tolerance and mutual respectare like a two-way street. The traffic moves both ways: You show tolerance for others and they show tolerance for you.
37
You may encounter barriers which will hinder your ability to live and perform in a mutually respectful environment. Among these barriers are:
• Prejudice
• Discrimination
• Failure to valuediversity

40
Prejudice
It causes you to assume you have a person or a
situation figured out in advance—before you
even talk to the person or see the situation for
yourself.
The word PREJUDICE is exactly what it sounds
like; PRE-JUDGE.
41
An unfair opinion or judgment of
a person or a group of people
Prejudice
42
Prejudice is an
irrational way of
thinking—it doesn’t
permit reflection and
is usually based on
limited experience,
hunches, or hearsay,
rather than on facts.
43
Rumor; something heard from
others with no evidence that it is
true
Hearsay
44
Prejudices are so common that we sometimes take them for granted. That can be not only hurtful; it can be downright dangerous.
45
A. It is based on hearsay and a narrow
range of experience instead of facts.
B. It means making a decision about
someone in advance.
C. It results from rational thought and
allows for reflection.
D. It is very common and often taken
for granted.
Which of these statements is
inaccurate regarding prejudice?

C. It results from rational thought and

D. It is very common and often taken

Which of these statements is
inaccurate regarding prejudice?
47
Prejudices can lead you to make blanket assumptions about an entire group of people rather than looking at them as individuals. For example, how would you respond if someone said to you, “Athletes are stupid?”
48
You could roll your eyes and nod, as if in
agreement, but if overcoming prejudice were
your goal, you’d respond very differently.
49
• Who made the statement?
• Is it someone who plays sports or not?
• Does the person know any athletes?
You’d have to think logically and ask
yourself a series of questions such as these:
50
• Who made the statement?
• Is it someone who plays sports or not?
• Does the person know any athletes?
• On what grounds did the person make
the claim about athletes’ intelligence?
• Does he or she have access to all
athletes’ school transcripts?
You’d have to think logically and ask
yourself a series of questions such as these:
51
• Do you know of evidence to disprove
the claim?
• Do you know any smart athletes?
• Or have you read about any great
athletes who were also top scholars?
• If you don’t personally know any
athletes, is it a good idea to
automatically accept another person’s
opinion as fact?
You’d have to think logically and ask
yourself a series of questions such as these:
52
A. Does this speaker have a great deal of
experience or knowledge about the subject?
B. Can I come up with any evidence of my own to
disprove the statement?
C. Should I automatically accept someone else’s
opinion as fact?
D. Have I heard anyone else say something
similar about this group of people?
If you were attempting to free yourself from
prejudice and heard someone make a statement
about a particular group of people, which of
these questions would be LEAST enlightening to
you?

54
People aren’t born
PREJUDICED.
Reasons For Prejudice
55
PREJUDICE is a learned trait.
Like the song from the musical South Pacific
says “You have to be taught to hate.” You
pick it up from the messages society sends.
56
People develop prejudices for several
reasons. One is fear. People are capable of
fearing other people, ideas, or cultures
different from their own.
57
True or False: Prejudice is learned, not
innate behavior.
58
True
True or False: Prejudice is learned, not
innate behavior.
59
Another reason for prejudice is a group’s
feelings of superiority toward members of
other groups—whether the feelings are
racial, ethnic, or religious.
60
Sometimes it’s a question of men
versus women.
61
Misunderstanding is another source of prejudice. An innocent gesture or word in
one culture can be an insult in another.
62
For example, in America, putting your feet up on a desk can show that you are feeling relaxed and friendly, whereas in the Middle East, showing someone the bottoms of your shoes is a grave affront to Muslims, who see the foot as unclean.
63
Still another reason is
perceptions of history.
People and groups
often remember the
wrongs done to them
far better than they
remember the wrongs
they’ve done to others.
64
Perhaps you had a bad experience with a member of another group. You then proceed to blame all members of that group for what one person did in the past.
65
At a broader level, many ethnic and religious groups around the world have a long history of disagreements with each other over land, resources, and political power. They’ve fought bitter wars with atrocities on both sides.
66
True or False: Certain gestures or
behaviors have different meanings in
different countries.
67

behaviors have different meanings in

68
Discrimination
One danger of PREJUDICE is that it can
lead to DISCRIMINATION.
68
69
Unfair treatment based on
prejudice against a certain group
Discrimination
70
Discrimination is often based on perceived
traits such as:
• Skin color
• Gender
• Age.
But the possibilities are endless.
71
What counts are the feelings of the person
being discriminated against—and your
efforts to treat that individual no differently
than you treat anyone else.
Overweight
Left-handed
72
If someone compliments you on your new winter coat and says you have “discriminating taste,” that’s a good thing.
It means that you tend to seek out the quality things in life.
73
If someone says you’re “discriminatory” in your attitudes, watch out.
You may be picking your friends on the basis of something other than their character, actions, or personalities. You may be judging them on the basis of stereotypes.
74
True or False: To have discriminating
taste is to have the ability to
distinguish quality in things.
75

True or False: To have discriminating
taste is to have the ability to

77
A. discriminating
B. discriminatory
C. discretionary
D. discrete
To be called _______ is to be
perceived as having prejudiced views.
78
A stereotype
can be negative
or positive. It’s a
picture you
carry around in
your head about
a thing or
person, without
ever questioning
its validity.
79
An idea or a concept that is based
on oversimplified assumptions or
opinions, rather than on facts
Stereotype
80
Are all pit bulls vicious?
Are all kittens cuddly?
Or are these labels basis on limited
experience or stories in the media?
How true are the stereotypes?
Assumptions based on stereotypes.
A pit bull is a vicious dog.
A kitten is a cuddly creature.
81
True or False: A stereotype is always a
negative idea or concept.
82
False
True or False: A stereotype is always a
negative idea or concept.
83
Diversity
83
When someone says that American society
values diversity, that means Americans
encourage variety and live in a society that
respects differences among people.
84
Variation or difference
Diversity
85
Since these movements, America has
made progress in granting equal rights to
all its citizens.
Women’s Suffrage

1960s
86
Americans practice this freedom regardless of
their gender, age, race, ethnicity, national
origin, religion, family status, sexual
preference, or physical ability.
86
87
The struggle for mutual respect, however,
is still waged in the United States and all
modern countries to become more
tolerant and open societies.

Religious Respect
Religious intolerance has ignited conflict
after conflict throughout human history.

91
It’s not condoning or
condemning but just
respecting others’ rights.
Religious respect
is so important
because it
involves making
a conscious
effort to respect
the beliefs—or
nonbeliefs—of
others.
92
Honor for the right of other people
to hold their own personal
religious beliefs

93
Gender Stereotypes
Have you ever heard someone say that boys
aren’t supposed to cry?
Or that girls are no good in science?
If you’re a boy, do people assume you love
sports?
If you’re a girl, does everyone assume you
like to cook?
If so, you’re experiencing gender
stereotyping.
94
The practice of thinking about
people in limited ways on the
basis of whether they are male
or female
Gender Stereotyping
95
Gender stereotypes
cover cultural, social,
psychological, and
behavioral traits of
males and females.
96
Gender equality is a complex issue that’s
still evolving. The United States is working
at how to be a just society—a society that
practices justice—and as a free people, it
is the duty of all Americans to seek
“justice for all.” 96

102
1. You build your ways of dealing with people
on the basis of false assumptions or
misleading mental images.
Gender stereotypes have at least two big
problems.
103
2. Gender stereotypes make clear
communication difficult, if not impossible.
Without communication, there’s no
understanding. With no understanding,
there’s no respect.
104
How can you avoid stereotyping people by
their gender?
• Be sensitive to language that might contain
gender stereotypes (“you guys,” “you
gals,” etc.).
• Don’t go with your gut reaction—it’s likely
to be based on preconceptions.
• Take time to think.
• Avoid using hurtful words or expressions.
• Don’t fall victim to peer pressure.
• View everyone as an equal.
105
In the spirit of mutual
respect, you need to
be open-minded.
Respect the ideas of
adults in your life as
well as those of your
friends, then form your
own opinions.
Think for yourself on gender issues.
106
A. feeling
B. discussion

Gender stereotyping makes it hard to
communicate, and without
communication, there can be no
_______, and therefore no respect.

108
Demonstrating Tolerance
Overcoming prejudice and discrimination
begins with each individual, and the goal
is to see people as people.108
109
How do you know if you are showing
tolerance and understanding towards other
people? Ask yourself: Am I treating them
the way I would want them to treat me?109
110
How would you feel if others made fun of:
• your skin color
• ethnic background
• hair color
• religion
• the region of the U.S. you are from?
111
How would you feel if you were denied:
• a place on the team
• an education
• a job
• an opportunity
simply because someone decided you
belonged to the “wrong” group?
112
How would you feel if others refused:
• To be friends with you
• To eat in the school cafeteria with you
• To live in the same neighborhood with
you because of their prejudice?
113
If you wouldn’t like other people doing that
to you, don’t do it to them. That’s the
foundation of tolerance and mutual respect.

What question will help you decide if
you are showing tolerance to others?

117
Improving Group Effectiveness
Establishing mutual respect, being tolerant,
and valuing diversity are important for
individuals, but they’re equally important at
the group or organizational level.117
118
Working Toward Common Goals
Did you ever push two bar magnets around
on a tabletop?
What happened as you brought them closer
together?
119
Either the magnets flipped away from each
other the closer you placed them, or they
snapped together, forming a bond.
120
All magnets are polarized—they have a
south pole and a north pole. One pole is
positive, and the other is negative.
121
If you bring
two positive
or two
negative
poles
together,
the magnets
repel each
other.
If you put a negative and a positive pole
close to each other, the magnets attract
each other.
122
You can compare members of a team or
group with magnets. If group members can’t
communicate clearly and see a common
goal, they tend to lack trust and respect for
each other. Nothing productive will happen.
123
Members of a group or team bond and are
ready to produce results when they have a
clearly defined common goal and are able to
communicate their plan of action to achieve
that goal.
124
A. Tolerance
B. Success
C. Empathy
D. Bonding
What is the result on a group if there
is a clear goal and good
communication about the plan of
action?

126
Benefits of Accepting Differences
People often find it difficult to accept other
people’s differences, and it seems to put
them at odds with each other.
127
The benefits of accepting other people’s
differences outweigh the drag that
prejudicial thinking puts on team
performance.
128
No team can be whole while any of its members holds wrong assumptions, false impressions, and stereotypes about fellow team members.
The best team is unified!
129
Communication is key to breaking down
the barriers and accepting others’
differences. 129
130
Tapping the talents, ideas, experiences, and ingenuity of a diverse group of people is very productive.

A diverse group of people must trust and listen to each other. They must not only accept but also value their differences.
Diversity is a strength!

Evaluating and Measuring Group
Effectiveness
How do you tell if your
group or team is
working effectively?
1. Establish clear goals.
2. Decide whether the group is meeting
those goals.
136
Are team members devoting their efforts to
the team’s task, or wasting them arguing
among themselves over issues that have
little or nothing to do with the task?
137
Team building is constantly seeking a measure of results—or movement toward results.
138
But you as a leader must measure, evaluate, and adjust as needed. Hitting the bull’s-eye might take a while, but you will finally make a direct hit.
139
For Greater Group Effectiveness:
• Forgive mistakes quickly—People often
learn more from failure than from
success.
• Hold members accountable—Every
team member should have a role and
should be responsible for carrying it
out.
• Foster trust and commitment—Both are
essential to teamwork.
• Don’t make excuses—Whining and
placing blame are counterproductive.
140
For Greater Group Effectiveness:
• Make the hard decisions—Winning
doesn’t come easy.
• Seek concrete answers and
solutions—You can use them to
measure effectiveness.
• Respect differences—See them as a
source of strength.
• Constantly strive toward mutual
respect— Respect is the glue that
holds the group or team together.
141
A. comfortable
B. imaginative
C. accountable
D. predictable
To increase the effectiveness of the
group, make sure that each member is
_______.

Conflict in Groups
Although groups
can have any
number of
conflicts, they all
boil down to three
basic types of
conflicts:
• Perspective
• Purpose
• Practice
144
Conflict in Perspective
Conflicts in perspective involve what people
do and why they do it. It has to do with team
members’ differing beliefs and values.
145
Conflict in Perspective
The student who wants
the highest-possible
grade point average
(GPA) believes that a
college degree is
critical for success. GPA
4.0
146
Conflict in Perspective
A student who wants
only a high school
diploma, on the other
hand, doesn’t think
college is important.

147
Conflict in Perspective
These two students’ values are different, and those values will determine how they act and react in a group.
GPA4.0
High School
Diploma
148
If people try to solve perspective-level
conflicts by ignoring or working around them,
the conflicts will continue. The participants
have not addressed the underlying issues.
149
Sometimes perspective-level conflicts are impossible to resolve. You then must agree to disagree and work out the best compromise possible.
150
A. Conflicts in perspective
B. Conflicts in practice
C. Conflicts in performance
D. Conflicts in purpose

C. practice

Conflicts in _______ revolve around
the reasons that people do what they
do, generally because of their different
values.
154
Conflicts in Purpose
Conflicts in purpose involve what people want to achieve. These conflicts arise when members can’t accept the team’s goals and objectives.
155
For example, one team member might say, “I don’t care what grade we receive on this assignment. I just want to get it done.” Another member might say, “I want us to put together an A+ presentation so that I will keep the highest GPA possible.”
156
To deal with conflicts of purpose, the leader should set clear goals before the project begins—with input from team members.
Goals are easier
to establish and
change than team
perspective.
157
Conflicts in Practice
• when the team will meet
• where it will meet
• who will lead the meetings
they have conflicts at the practice level.
Conflicts in practice
have to do with the
team’s processes
and procedures. If
members can’t agree
on:
158
A leader’s best bet in dealing with conflicts
of practice is to set up operating procedures
before the team begins its work. At the least,
the leader can insist that practices and
procedures support the team’s objectives.
159
A. The leader should consistently remind group
members that his/her decisions are fair and
final.
B. Before the project begins, the leader should
articulate goals clearly, with team members
having input.
C. Brief conflict resolution meetings should be
scheduled at the first hint of a problem
regarding purpose.
D. Before the project begins, team members
should make a purpose plan, which the leader
keeps on track.

purpose?

161
Methods of Handling Conflict
People react to conflict in a group or team
setting in one of two ways: fight or flight.
162
At their best, they
express their own
perspectives, yet
continue to work
with team
members to arrive
at a solution.
At their
worst, they
lash out,
explode,
argue, and
become
competitive.
Some people fight when they perceive a
conflict. They become aggressive.
163
At their best, they
thoughtfully
reflect on the
issues at hand
and offer their
ideas to try to
resolve them.
At their worst,
they pout,
withdraw,
passively resist,
and avoid
working through
conflicts at all
costs.
When faced with conflict, other people will
resort to flight. These people are passive.
164
True or False: When confronted with
conflict in a team or group, people

166
Most people have developed strategies for
handling everyday conflicts.
They may retreat. They may detour around
the problem—a method that works
sometimes, but may become habit-forming.
167
You can’t retreat. You can’t get around it.
You must adjust.
Sometimes you can’t pretend that the
problem doesn’t exist.
168
Does it mean
forcing others to
give in to your
wishes, never
compromising,
and relying on the
other person to
adjust?
What is adjustment?
Does it mean giving in to avoid trouble or
making a scene?
169
• Retreating
• Detouring
Four main ways people handle conflict:
• Standing still
• Encountering
170
Retreating
Retreating is blocking or moving away from
a problem or conflict. People who retreat
don’t want to confront conflict head on.
171
In some cases, they may even withdraw from
society to try to escape reality.
They may give
up without even
trying.
They may try to
place the blame
on others.
172
Loss of a loved one, for example, might cause someone to retreat in fear of future loss, rejection, or loneliness.
Sometimes retreat is understandable.

A. Encountering
B. Detouring
C. Retreating
D. Standing Still
What term is used to refer to the
method of handling conflict by
blocking or moving away from it?
175
Standing Still
Standing still is avoiding a problem or
conflict by using defense mechanisms.
Stay in one
place rather
than to risk
defeat or
rejection.
176
The student with
great potential who
takes the easiest
course, so that he
or she doesn’t have
to work very hard.
For example…
177
The adult who prefers
to stand still says, “It
was good enough for
my parents, and it’s
good enough for me.
Why change now?”
For example…
178
Other forms of standing still include such
defense mechanisms as rationalization and
projection or just daydreaming, forgetting,
and regression.
179
Concealing the true motivation
for one’s thoughts, actions, or
feelings by offering reassuring,
but incorrect, explanations
Rationalization
180
The act of falsely attributing to
others one’s own unacceptable
feelings, impulses, or thoughts
Projection
181
A. rationalizing
B. projecting
C. detouring
D. compensating

185
Detouring
Detouring is moving around, or avoiding, a
problem or conflict.
186
People who constantly avoid important
issues may think they’ve dealt with a
problem, but the solution is temporary.
187
If your friend Mark says, “Suzanne gets good
grades because she’s the teacher’s pet,”
he’s detouring rather than facing the fact that
he doesn’t study enough.
The problem is bound to arise again.
188
Compensation is one
way of detouring. A
rejected or insecure
person may
compensate by
showing off, being
sarcastic, or
misbehaving—just to
get attention.
189
A mechanism by which an
individual attempts to make up for
some real or imagined deficiency
of personality or behavior by
developing or stressing another
aspect of the personality or by
substituting a different form of
behavior
Compensation
190
For example, a guy who doesn’t make the
varsity basketball team could compensate
by becoming a whiz in computer science.
In some cases, compensation has favorable
results.
191
Encountering
Encountering is the
best way to handle
problems.
Encountering is
facing a conflict
head-on and reaching
a solution.President
Abraham Lincoln
192
The person who faces
problems stands a
much better chance of
solving them than the
person who avoids or
ignores them does.

195
You probably find it
easy to advise others
about how to face
their problems, but
when it’s your own
problem, it’s a
different story.
196
Like everyone else, you face problems and
conflicts every day. You must compromise—
adjust to those around you.
197
To function in society, you must learn to
meet, encounter, and resolve those
problems and conflicts.197
