Understanding Bad Behavior

Bad behavior in teams can manifest in various forms, ranging from subtle gestures like eye-rolling to more overt actions like verbal insults. Surprisingly, research indicates that minor offenses, such as dismissive remarks or body language, can have serious implications for patient safety, equating eye-rolling to the dangers posed by sexual harassment. This highlights the importance of self-awareness, as many individuals may not realize the impact their behavior has on others. Recognizing and categorizing these behaviors is crucial for fostering a healthier workplace environment.
