Ensuring Civility Online: Professional Etiquette in the Virtual Workplace provides a practical approach with clear guidelines for managing behaviour in a virtual environment.

In a world of increasing self-expression and self-promotion, the practice of etiquette seems absent in many everyday encounters, Additionally, the constant connectivity offered by technology has led to a decline in interpersonal communication skills including empathy, civility, and common courtesy.

Despite the fact that technology has allowed for, and even promoted, the widespread growth of incivility, the main culprit behind rudeness remains human behaviour. While numerous books about incivility are available, the focus of those publications is most often on the topic of incivility and not on the means to reduce or alleviate its presence.

Ensuring Civility Online: Professional Etiquette in the Virtual Workplace provides a practical approach with clear guidelines for managing behaviour in a virtual environment. The concise content will be helpful to trainers, educators, managers, employees, students, conference planners, conference attendees, and any others attempting to navigate the virtual environment in a professional manner. This book will provide you with the knowledge and tools needed to conduct yourself professionally in any virtual setting.
