In this episode of Nursing EDge Unscripted, host Dr. Steven Palazzo interviews Dr. LisaMarie Wands about her research on integrating cognitive rehearsal training into nursing education to counteract incivility. Dr. Wands explains how incivility, from dismissive behaviors to overt hostility, harms nursing students and new nurses and contributes to burnout and attrition. Her study, funded by the NLN, used simulation to teach students strategies like pausing and scripted responses when encountering uncivil behavior. Findings revealed that students often struggled to act on these strategies because of their low power in clinical settings, but some reported applying the training once in professional practice. The conversation emphasizes the need for nursing programs to introduce even small-scale training or role-play to prepare students for the realities of incivility in the workplace.Wands, L., McDermott, C., Bernard, N., Wolf, R., & Kimble, L.

Should politics be off-limits in church? Reverend Clay Stauffer doesn't think so. Two months after a member of his congregation was killed in The Covenant School shooting, Rev. Stauffer invited his community to gather in their sanctuary for a discussion about gun violence — a conversation most churches would rather avoid. Host Julie Rose talks with him about what compelled him to do it, why he believes churches should be “big tents” where people with different views can still talk and stay connected, and how avoiding politics in church might actually make divisions worse. They also explore why people of faith might be especially equipped to lead with empathy and peace. Clay Stauffer is the senior minister at Woodmont Christian Church in Nashville, professor of moral leadership at Vanderbilt University, and author of “What the World Needs Now: Virtue and Character in an Age of Chaos.” Learn more about Dr. Stauffer's work at https://claystauffer.com/.

Incivility in undergraduate nursing education is a complex, multifaceted issue. Student-to-faculty incivility can be characterized by behaviors that negatively impact the faculty's ability to perform and enjoy their job. This podcast with Rebecca Weaver (and article) discuss the need for targeted interventions and institutional strategies to address incivility in the academic setting.
We have been seeing organized and targeted attacks on people, schools, and places of law enforcement -- it is obvious there is a political agenda involved. Today, a shooter with a rifle opened fire from a nearby roof onto a U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement location in Dallas. The sniper killed two detainees and wounded another before taking his own life. The weaponization of language framed in polarized conflicts effectively runs a battery or energy source for a gain-of-function trial balloon for civil war. This burgeoning and manufactured conflict has given the White House carte blanche in unleashing a full-on surveillance panopticon in the United States. How much worse will it get before Americans wake up from their slumber? Listen to Ground Zero with Clyde Lewis M-F from 7-10 pm, pacific time on groundzeroplus.com.

Send us a textDr. Cynthia Clark opens up about the hidden epidemic affecting healthcare environments nationwide: workplace incivility. Drawing from decades of research and practical experience, she paints a compelling picture of how seemingly minor behaviors like eye-rolling or walking away mid-conversation can create serious patient safety risks when they occur in clinical settings.What makes this conversation particularly illuminating is Dr. Clark's nuanced understanding of workplace dynamics. She introduces listeners to her "continuum of workplace aggression" framework, which helps identify problematic behaviors ranging from subtle nonverbal cues to outright bullying and gaslighting. Her explanation of how victims often blame themselves rather than recognizing manipulative behaviors provides a wake-up call for anyone who's experienced that unsettling feeling of questioning their own reality after an interaction with a difficult colleague.The heart of this episode focuses on cognitive rehearsal—a simulation-based technique that transforms how healthcare professionals respond to incivility. Through a practical five-step process, Dr. Clark demonstrates how professionals can prepare for and address difficult conversations rather than avoiding them. Her PAIL framework (Preview, Advocacy, Inquiry, Listen) offers a structured approach that anyone can implement immediately. The example scenario featuring "Iris," a domineering colleague who derails meetings, provides a masterclass in how to approach uncomfortable but necessary conversations.Whether you're a nursing educator, a healthcare professional, or anyone who's experienced workplace tension, this episode delivers practical strategies for creating more respectful environments. Dr. Clark's insistence on calling communication competencies "power skills" rather than "soft skills" underscores their critical importance in healthcare settings where lives literally depend on effective collaboration.

Are Fat People Really To Blame? | Southwest Airlines, Incivility & America's Compassion Crisis ✈️ Southwest Airlines is requiring plus-sized passengers to buy two seats so they “don't spill over.” But here's the real question: why not just design a few rows of larger seats? Instead, society blames fat people for being fat, ignoring the bigger issue — an industry and culture that lack compassion. This episode of the Karel Cast digs into more than just airline seating. From body shaming to public incivility, America is in a compassion crisis. Insults fly daily, strangers fight over parking spots, and violence erupts over the smallest things. Is Trump to blame for fueling division, or is there something deeper and darker behind our collective lack of civility?

With David away for a second consecutive week, Erica and Sandeep seek out the inimitable Josh Feit, news editor of the Stranger back in the olden (golden) days, to buffer their conversation with convoluted references to 50-year-old Joni Mitchell records. We start with the increasingly off-putting saga of King County Assessor John Arthur Wilson, who remains defiant in the face of a unanimous vote by the King County Council (minus the absent Reagan Dunn) urging him to resign over allegations he stalked his ex-partner during their breakup from hell. We ask: Why did the resignation calls take so long, and are we headed for a messy recall? (Hours after we taped this episode on the morning of Friday, June 13, a judge denied Wilson's legal motion seeking the dismissal of his ex-partner's protection order against him .) Next up, Josh keys off the announced resignation of Councilmember Cathy Moore to argue that what Moore and her supporters and backers decry as incivility in Council chambers is really just sour grapes about the rising voice of an emerging urbanist majority. But are the urbanists so ascendant, give the status quo nature of the comp plan currently under debate? Finally, we dig into the implications of Erica's reporting that the mayor is seeking to expand the city's powers to shutter “nuisance properties.” Is a crackdown on clubs warranted by recent incidents of gun violence that have occurred outside nightclubs and hookah lounges? Or is this just the latest iteration of a long, pinch-faced tradition in Seattle municipal politics of finger-wagging at—and passing laws to curtail—the city's nightlife?

In this episode, Bob and Joyce explore the critical importance of handling employee terminations the right way. When done poorly, these moments don't just affect the individuals involved—they send shockwaves through the entire organization, damaging culture and trust. The conversation is sparked by the troubling trend of mass layoffs via impersonal emails, as seen recently in the U.S. government. With such cold, transactional approaches becoming more common, are we at risk of normalizing workplace incivility? While layoffs and terminations are sometimes necessary due to business demands, how they're handled speaks volumes about an organization's values and leadership. This is where HR and OD professionals must step up to ensure fairness, dignity, and alignment with company culture. Grab a snack and join us as we dive into this crucial conversation.

Why is incivility still a major issue in the healthcare field, and how does it impact students, nurses, and CRNAs? In this episode of Grade 1 View, Kevin and Larry had the privilege of speaking with Dr. Louisa Martin, a distinguished nurse anesthetist and educator about the widespread issue of workplace incivility in nurse anesthesia training and beyond. Dr. Martin was selected to present at the AANA Annual Congress this year for the Jan Stewart Memorial Wellness Lecture about this topic, so we're excited to have the chance to gain some wisdom from her. The conversation will focus on her research on how hostile work environments, bullying, and toxic leadership can affect learning, patient safety, and overall job satisfaction. She also discusses practical strategies for handling incivility, advocating for yourself as a student, and creating a culture of support in clinical settings. Here's some of what we discuss in this episode:

Civility within the legal profession can be defined as the courteous and respectful behavior exhibited by legal professionals throughout their practice. Personal attacks, not agreeing to reasonable requests, writing inflammatory emails, briefs, or motions, are just a few examples of incivility within the profession. These actions have prompted calls for a return to civility. Where some states have adopted codes of civility, a fight for mandatory civility continues. In this episode, Craig is joined by David A. Grenardo, a professor of law and associate director of the Holloran Center for Ethical Leadership in the Professions at St. Thomas School of Law. Craig & David spotlight civility in the legal profession, and take a look at mandatory civility and teaching the importance of civility to our law students and to those within the legal profession.

Years of acrimony and conflict in our national politics has unfortunately trickled down to cities, where disdain for civil servants — and each other — has had a chilling effect on the work needed to get things done. So what can we do about it? Former Atlanta Mayor Kasim Reed and former Philly Mayor Michael Nutter sat down with Diane Kalen-Sukra, a former city manager, current evangelist for political civility and author of Save Your City: How Toxic Culture Kills Community & What To Do About It — the perfect guest to explain how we can bring down the temperature of our political conversations … and what happens if we don't. “Incivility exists on a spectrum,” Kalen-Sukra said, “but it leads to mobbing, harassment, then threats, then violence, and ultimately civil war.” “Has there been an inflection point over the last 10, 15 years, where you saw an uptick in incivility?” Nutter asked. “And when we have a conversation about what happened,” Reed interjected, “The President of the United States has traditionally been the exemplar of behavior and decorum. Donald Trump opened up a tear in the fabric of our society.” “There's no question that our social fabric is unraveling right now,” Kalen-Sukra responded. “And unless we address incivility intentionally, it is only going to escalate. It spreads like a contagion.” Also on this episode's Accelerator for America policy segment, the mayors discuss the role of bipartisanship in these times and the importance of “keeping the American team together.” Remember to subscribe to the podcast to keep up on all the latest episodes.

Do you know what cyber incivility is? Cyber incivility can be a contributing factor to this epidemic of incivility we are experiencing. Cyber incivility is uncivil behavior over email, texts, and social media. It is so easy to send something that feels abrupt or unkind because you don't have tone or volume to help communicate your message. Communicating electronically is inherently impersonal, and that's why we have to go the extra mile to make sure our messages are presented in respectful and courteous ways. A good idea is to re-read everything you send electronically before you hit send; put yourself in the reader's shoes and make sure you've included words of courtesy, words of appreciation, and words that show you care about the person. I know I can be so focused on getting the message out that I forget there is a person on the other end who needs to be recognized as a person, and a few courteous words can make a world of difference. Then there are the acts of incivility which can seem “victimless,” but are still rude behavior that contributes to the overall incivility of the workplace. For example, not refilling the office coffee machine or printer or tossing trash next to the trash can without picking it up are examples of victimless incivility. It does not have an immediate impact on another person, but it violates norms for courtesy, nonetheless. What do you say? Can we as Christ-followers in a world of incivility make a difference by just showing the love of Jesus and his compassion to the people in our world? We absolutely can, and these simple suggestions I've given you this week are so easy to do, don't cost a thing, and can truly go a long way toward stemming the tide of incivility where you work. Here's a verse that will help you in this challenge. I encourage you to pray it into your life: Let us therefore make every effort to do what leads to peace and to mutual edification (Romans 14:19).
Incivility leads to many harmful effects on employees and organizations. Coworker incivility has been linked to higher levels of employee burnout and lots of strain and stress. For the organization or the company, incivility has been related to decreased satisfaction and eventually decreased performance. And here's the thing about incivility: it is contagious! An employee who is subjected to lack of civility, lack of good manners, lack of anyone seeming to care about them, often retaliates with uncivil acts of their own. It can spiral out of control within an organization rather quickly. But the good news is courtesy and good manners can be contagious, too. Remember Jesus has called us as his followers to be lights in a dark world. This means we not only are not caught up in workplace incivility, but we also actively and intentionally try to change the culture. But how? As I've often said, everything starts at the top, so if you are in a management job or in a place of influence, you should model what civil and courteous behavior looks like. Your level of courtesy and consideration toward others will trickle down to those who work for you and with you. As a manager, you are always “on,” which means you don't have the luxury of letting down your guard, because your behavior has more impact than others. By setting the tone for the organization, managers and those in places of influence can help create a culture of simple courtesy, good manners, and caring about others. As Christ followers, here is our standard: Do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit. Rather, in humility value others above yourselves, not looking to your own interests but each of you to the interests of the others (Philippians 2:3-4). That is very civil behavior, and with the power of God's Spirit, you can be a person who values others above yourself.
I've given two specific things you can do if you are intentional about bringing back simple common courtesy and civil behavior where you work. First, use the words please and thank you all day every day—as often as it is appropriate. You can't overdo it! Second, ask at least one person a day how they are and then sincerely listen to their answer and respond appropriately. That just means caring about others. As Christ-followers, courtesy and caring should be the norm for us. The third suggestion is: Watch out for sarcasm because it can become a weapon that hurts others, whether intentionally or not. At my church, one of the pastors said he realized he was too sarcastic, just too often responding with sarcasm. It wasn't intended to harm anyone—indeed it was done as a joke or a clever retort. But he felt it had become a bit much among the staff. So, he put a jar out and suggested that every time someone used sarcasm, they put a dollar in the jar, and then they would give that money to our fellowship fund, for people facing financial hardship. I don't know how much he raised for the fellowship fund, but I know it caused everyone to be aware that sometimes those clever sarcastic words can be hurtful and sound anything but civil and polite. I'm not saying that you must walk on eggshells for fear of saying the wrong thing. But I have noticed my own tendency to let go of a quick response, intended as a joke, and I need to be careful it doesn't come across as ridicule and hurtful. For those of us who are prone to use sarcasm, we should keep in mind what we may have meant as a clever response was instead hurtful to someone else. As Christians, we can do much to change a culture of incivility to one of caring and good manners. If there's too much sarcasm in your world it just might contribute to this problem of incivility. Be on guard for this.
As followers of Jesus Christ, we should lead the way in our worlds to try to stamp out these bad habits of rudeness and replace them with simple courtesies. Good manners do not have to remain a quaint memory from the past. Examples of workplace incivility include insulting comments, disparaging someone's work, spreading false rumors, and social isolation. I propose you take this as your personal challenge—to do everything you can to stop incivility in your world. Here's my second suggestion: Be sure to ask at least one person every day how they are doing and then listen to their answer. Don't let them get by with the typical response of “I'm fine” but probe a bit. Maybe you know they haven't felt good lately, so ask how they're feeling. Perhaps they are under a great deal of stress in their job, and you can ask about that. The most important part of this suggestion is you sincerely ask, and you sincerely listen. Sometimes this can open a door for you to assure them that you will pray for them. There are very few people in this world who will object to you praying for them, even if they don't pray themselves. When people feel cared for, when they believe at least one person appreciates what they do or what they're going through, it will affect the way they treat others. And this could cause a chain reaction of people caring for others. Imagine how that would improve the morale in your workplace! Putting these two suggestions together, make it your intention to say please and thank you every time it's appropriate and show care and concern to at least one person every day. It will make a difference—you will make a difference—and Jesus will be honored by your actions. Therefore, as God's chosen people, holy and dearly loved, clothe yourselves with compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness and patience (Colossians 3:12). Put on these beautiful attributes each day and I promise you will make a huge dent in turning around incivility in your world.
Incivility is out of control! A study reports 70% of U.S. adults say incivility is at a crisis level. Is that true where you work—or where you live? You see signs of it every time you watch the news or spend any time on social media. It seems we've allowed this lack of civility to creep into our culture until it has somehow become the new normal—as acceptable behavior. Doesn't this give us Christ-followers a wonderful opportunity to demonstrate the difference Jesus makes in our lives? This opens the door for us to be lights in a dark world, and that is what Jesus has called us to. First, let's define incivility. The textbook definition is “rude or unsociable speech or behavior.” Incivility in the workplace can be perhaps more subtle, of lower intensity, maybe not even recognizable at first. But it shows up as lack of courtesy, abandoning simple polite behaviors and practices, or using sarcastic remarks, rude and abrupt responses. And often, the people engaging in uncivil behavior don't intend harm, it's just become a bad habit. I think it's time we fight back, don't you? I have some simple suggestions you can do to stem the tide of incivility in your world—your work world, your home world, wherever. Here's my first suggestion: Make sure you say please and thank you at every possible opportunity. Something as simple as that can make a difference, and if those words of courtesy have been lost in your world, reintroduce them! Say them to your family members; often we neglect courtesy in our homes. Find opportunities to thank people and don't be afraid of over-doing it. I challenge you to keep a count of the number of times you say please or thank you in a given day and determine to increase that number each day. Don't discount the power of polite words spoken at the right time and in the right way. Those words become little rays of light in the darkness.
