Set boundaries and communicate your expectations upfront. Advocate for yourself in advance by clearly establishing your boundaries and what you need to feel respected.   Model the respectful behavior you want to see from others. Lead by example and treating others the way you want to be treated can help foster a more respectful workplace culture.   &amp;nbsp; \u201cAdvocating for yourself is important, and sometimes you have to do that in the beginning so that people already know your boundaries, and then once you set your boundaries and respect your boundaries, you don't let other people disrespect them.\u201d - Stephanie Booker &amp;nbsp; Connect with Dr. Gaye Lang: Don\u2019t forget to subscribe to the show, so that you don\u2019t miss a single episode; and please leave a rating and review.
