Summary

In this moment, former U.S. Secret Service Special Agent Evy Pompouras discusses how to earn and maintain respect in the workplace. According to Evy, it is important to reflect on your own actions when faced with disrespect. This includes assessing the tone and pitch of your voice to see if any changes could lead to gaining more respect. The same principle applies to self-assessments of your contributions in the workplace, as Evy emphasises that people who speak too much often lose respect in the workplace while those who provide meaningful insight gain in. Evy also recommends addressing signs of disrespect straight away rather than avoiding the situation. Although difficult conversations may be uncomfortable, they can ultimately strengthen relationships and improve future interactions.
