Giving Rudeness a Pass: A Behavioral Analysis, by Jonathan H. Westover PhD
Abstract: This article explores the persistence of workplace incivility despite increased focus on professionalism and well-being in modern organizations. It examines the psychological factors enabling rude behavior to evade accountability, including its often subtle and ambiguous nature, power dynamics that shield higher-status offenders, and cognitive biases that distort observers' interpretations. The article presents research-based strategies for organizations to address these issues, including establishing clear civility standards, implementing anonymous reporting systems, and conducting bystander intervention training. Through case studies of companies like Eli Lilly and Verizon, the article demonstrates how organizations can transform workplace culture by taking holistic, learning-based approaches to confronting incivility rather than implementing superficial solutions, ultimately enhancing employee well-being, performance, and retention.
