Policy instruments should be clear, succinct, and respectful. This book will make you rethink the way you write policies, guidelines, regulations, and similar documents. You will see how the wording of your rules reveals the amount of respect you have for the people they are directed to-or betrays the lack of it.

An accessible guide to understanding what qualifies as sexual harassment and how to combat it, using the simple rules children learn on the playground. One of today’s most hotly discussed topics is sexual harassment in the workplace: what it looks like, how to prevent it, and what to do about it. So many people don’t realize that they have been victims of sexual harassment or that they have a right to speak up and demand different treatment. Many don’t realize that they are committing it, thanks certain behaviors being dismissed, forgiven, or ignored for many years when they should have been corrected long ago. In the heat of today’s #MeToo movement, Brigitte Gawenda Kimichik, JD, and J.R Tomlinson take things back to basics by applying the rules we all learned on the playground to the modern-day workplace, thus making clear to everyone what is and what isn’t OK. Play Nice: Playground Rules for Respect in the Workplace is an indispensable resource—both for empowering those who wish to reassert their boundaries and for teaching allies how to help in this fight. Praise for Play Nice “Chock full of smart, strategic advice to help anyone suffering from toxic behavior in the workplace. When you finish this book, you will realize that equal rights for women is not some far-off ideal but a reality that that soon can be achieved.” —Skip Hollandsworth, Executive Editor, Texas Monthly “For real change to occur, it is imperative that we all start holding ourselves responsible for ensuring everyone is treated respectfully. Play Nice is a giant step in the right direction. This book should be mandatory reading for all organizations and parents.” —Vanessa Fox Corp. VP, Chief Development Officer, Jack in the Box “This is a must-read for any human resources executive, any woman embarking on her professional career, and any bystander (male or female) who is not sure what to do when faced with bad behavior.” —Joel L. Ross, former General Counsel of Trammell Crow Company and retired partner of Vinson & Elkins LLP

Often organizations claim to hold "respect for others" as a core value, but when you look at their policy documents, the story is different. Whether they call them "policies," "standards," or simply "rules," too often they sound like a sergeant barking orders at the troops. That tone of voice might have been acceptable in the past but it is not effective in today's workplace. As you update your corporate, administrative, and operational policies to meet changing times, this book invites you to rethink how you draft rules. It shows you how to - organize and reduce the length of policy instruments - sound strict without sounding dictatorial or combative - eliminate negative messaging - choose words that encourage compliance, and - reduce the time required for drafting and approval. Employees and customers expect to be spoken to with respect. Poorly-written rules reflect badly on your organization, even when they exist only as the remnants of a culture your organization had in the past. Well-written rules invite engagement. They are positive and helpful, focusing on targets and collaboration rather than prohibitions and punishments. A few improvements can make your policies easier to follow, enforce, and audit.

"For those looking for a smart, no-bullshit, effective guide to finding love, look no further."—Esther Perel, author of Mating in Captivity "While I’m not sure what Carrie Bradshaw would have made of today’s new world of dating, I do know this: armed with Love Rules, she would have figured it all out in one season."—Sarah Jessica Parker Sheryl Sandberg empowered women to lean in. Arianna Huffington Encouraged them to thrive. Now, Joanna Coles guides them on their most important journey: finding love. Love Rules will enable you to identify what you want in a relationship, when you should pursue it, and how to find it. Just as there is junk food, there is junk love. And like junk food, junk love is fast, convenient, attractively packaged, widely available, superficially tasty—and leaves you hungering for more. And both junk food and junk love require enormous amounts of willpower to resist. Social media and online dating sites have become the supermarkets of our relationship lives. You have to wade through rows of cupcakes and potato chips to find the produce aisle, where those relationships grounded in intimacy and trust live—the ones worth your investment. A diet book for romantic relationships, Love Rules first asks women to re-assess the way they think about their relationships, and then helps them use that newfound awareness to navigate their love lives more successfully in this very modern, fast-paced—and often lonely—digital age. In these pages leading media exec and former Editor in Chief of Cosmopolitan and Marie Claire Joanna Coles provides a series of simple guidelines for finding worthwhile love: fifteen rules—love "hacks." She also explains how to use dating apps effectively to expand real world connections and how to avoid DADD—dating attention—deficit disorder, where the tantalizing promise of someone better appears to be only the next swipe away.
