Conversations with Leaders - How Does Low Social Intelligence Contribute to Incivility?

In our second session, “How Does Low Social Intelligence Contribute to Incivility?” Mary Ellen Sanajko will lead an interactive exploration of social intelligence (SI) and its crucial role in fostering a positive workplace culture. We’ll discuss how a deficit in social intelligence can lead to misunderstandings, conflicts, and ultimately, incivility, impacting team dynamics and safety.

  2. What, if anything, does incivility have to do with Social Intelligence? With safety in your workplace?
  3. What is the civility level like in your workplace? Is incivility a common behaviour?
  4. How can SafeCare BC help?
