Building on last week’s post about Courtesy, it’s important to note that Respect and Courtesy are not isolated concepts. They are interconnected, and our society’s departure from one often signals a departure from the other. We must remember that treating each other with dignity is not just a matter of respect but also a reflection of our own self-worth.
Our society loses a small piece of itself daily when we dismiss courtesy. This simple element of how we treat and interact with each other is a powerful testimony to a moral code that states to treat others as you would like to be treated.
So, A significant shoe company recently started a commercial campaign using the framework of “Am I a bad person?” and “Winning isn’t for Everyone.” They may be edgy and, depending on your point of view, controversial, but have we, as a society, lowered our standard of acceptance without questioning? Our world is challenged with vast mental health challenges, yet we allow advertising to continue to erode the very core of who we should be as humankind.
In a society that tends to live moment to moment and vicariously on social media platforms, it is time to reclaim a culture that is rooted in deep personal connection that builds long-lasting relationships rather than superficial contact.

As the world athletes come together in peace to compete in various athletic events, it is an opportunity for businesspeople to recognize that in our daily efforts, we too can compete in the marketplace within the realm of peace with our competitors.
The adage that nothing happens until the sale occurs is as accurate today as it has ever been. If the success of a business or a professional career is so directly dependent on the transfer of goods and services for revenue, then it only makes sense that a business culture must have a foundation in sales culture. Sales is not a bad word and needs to be part of all team members’ understanding.

When an organization embraces culture as the foundation of its business practices, it sets the stage for hiring individuals who best align with the culture offered. This allows for transparency of purpose and core values, enabling talent to flourish rather than exist and put in time in an organization.
The marketplace is filled with any number of product and service providers, all touting their brands to win consumers’ dollars. Does the brand represent its culture in the marketplace, or does it simply promote what it wants the marketplace to think about it? The next time you want to buy a product or service, look at not just the image branding but what the organization really stands for in the marketplace.
