The world is faced with ever increasing terrorist attacks; newspapers, TV channels and journals report every day on horrific scenes such as suicide bombing, hijackings and extremism that is happening in the many parts of the world. Relatively, there is also increasing conflicts between nations and the issues of nuclear proliferation which may spark wars between nations. Under these circumstances nations have to equip their military force with knowledge and skills that will outpace that of their enemies. In respect to this, America has been continually empowering its Non-commissioned officers.
Topic: respect

Amazingly, the education programme brought about success and in the subsequent years American soldiers performed exemplary; this was witnessed during the Grenada liberation in 1982, panama in 1989 and Kuwait in 1992 (p. 24). Presently, American non-commissioned officers are tirelessly serving in many battle grounds and peace keeping missions in many nations all over the world. Remarkably, their selfless determination to provide security to all people irrespective of their origin is witnessed in Iraq, Afghanistan, and Southern Sudan.
Topic: respect

Empowerment of American Non-commissioned officers is ever increasing and this can be attributed to some fundamental factors. So to speak, American soldier is faced with very dynamic and changing society which requires new knowledge and skills. In relation to this, Non-commissioned officers are trusted to adequately provide this technical and leadership skills to other soldiers and therefore they need to be empowered to perform this duty. Rush (2006) points out that, today the American’s sergeant officer has experiences, leadership, and technical skills more than ever before (p.24). Outstandingly, Non-commission Education system is believed to have contributed to the improvement, performance, and professionalism of these officers. Reimer (1996) asserts that leaders must possess creative leadership skills and positive attitude and provide an atmosphere where all soldiers can exploit their potential to the fullest. He continues to say that Army is not a group of people but it is the people and all of them offer volunteer services.
Topic: respect

Furthermore, good commanders understand their soldiers well and know them by names. Governments must, therefore, mentor non-commissioned and young officers and talk to them about their performance in order to prepare them for the future. Non-commissioned officers must be educated and well set for victory; they should be in a position to fight and defeat all their enemies in the world. Therefore, Reimer (1996) suggests that leaders must develop training programmes and establish National Training Centers for army officers to exploit full potential from them. The Iraq and the Afghanistan war was the most challenging war for the American soldiers. It was noted that, American soldiers were not adequately prepared for that war; they were not much enlightened and equipped with the necessary skills to counter insurgency. Petraeus (2006) one of the Lieutenants of U.S Army asserts that American soldiers must ‘persist to learn from the experience in those countries’ (p.1). Besides this, American soldiers should practice the habit of recording what they observe and learn in the battle field and disseminate this knowledge to other officers.
Topic: respect

The American government has done a good job in fostering this custom; they have established a center for Army Lessons Learned which is mandated with a duty of collecting, evaluating and disseminating information. With all this information Non-commissioned officers are able to do their roles as trainers and leaders effectively. Non-commissioned officers are considered as the ‘back-borne of the army’ (Rush, 2006, p. 76); this is because of their role in maintaining discipline and order within the army. Many years ago training of soldiers was the duty of officers; however, recently senior non-commissioned officers have been entrusted with this responsibility by the new regulation. Outstandingly, American Non-commissioned officers have performed commendably in their discharge of their duties worldwide. Every soldier is entitled with NCO who ensures that all soldiers get good and professional training from experienced and qualified experts. NCO is also mandated to identify leaders from soldiers who can effectively perform in small-units. Hence it is very essential for the NCO to be empowered with knowledge and technique on how to carry out these duties effectively as Reimer (1996) asserts that excellent leaders understand their soldiers’ strength and weaknesses (p.2).
Topic: respect

Basically, it is the role of NCO to employ knowledge and skills they have acquired through many years of service in planning and decision making stages in the Army (Department of the Army, Information Management Support Center, 1997, p.20). In line with this, the US government is taking initiatives to empower the non-commissioned officers with the competency skills that they can practice to help the ravaged nations built their military system again. As a result, American non-commissioned officers today are helping in improving and establishing of military force in ravished nations such as Iraq and Afghanistan. The experience that American non-commissioned officer has, has contributed as well in the successful reestablishment of the Iraq military colleges and schools. They employ their leadership determination skills to identify the best Iraq leaders who can head these colleges. The chain of authority is very fundamental in the military system.
Topic: respect

How well a military institution works rely on how the information is passed from the high rank to the lower rank. Rush (2006) defines the chain as ‘the succession of commanders from a superior to a subordinate through which command is exercised’ (p.32). American system of military embraces only one chain of command which is parallel with NCO; however, NCO complements this chain through its support channels. Basically, this chain of command is essential for communication between senior and junior staff in the Army and for it to be effective then the NCO support channels must be operational (p. 32). The non-commissioned officer support for the channel mentioned above starts with the command sergeant major and ends with junior cadre of NCO. This support channels functions by direct oral communication through the command sergeant major or first sergeant (Rush, 2006, p.33). Besides, this channel is very vital and is applied in giving out orders and ensuring that all jobs are done.
Topic: respect

Essentially, this method gives the commander freedom of planning, making decisions and designing future education programs for the force (p.33). Additionally, the NCO support channel helps the chain of command in designing and carrying out every day unit activities. Moreover, they train army soldiers in conducting unit operations as well as individual task. It is the responsibility of NCO support channel to ensure the wellbeing of soldiers and their family members during their working time and when they are out of work. Non-commissioned officer and the other Officers work together and complement each other as a unit. However, research conducted by Army Research Institute revealed that there has been problem between officers and Non-commission officers (Reimer, 2003, p.2). NCO and Officers have conflicts over the sharing of their duties, it is said that some Officers perform all the duties leaving NCO with nothing to do.
Topic: respect

Reimer (1996) asserts that, these officers want to perform training as well as micromanage; they also want the lower rank soldiers and civilians to report directly to them (p.2). This kind of actions leaves NCOs with titles and responsibilities while rendering them powerless. Surprisingly, the research also pointed out that ethical conduct of some battalion commanders is not up to the standard. Some commanders, compromise their ethics while discharging their duties and this influences the moral behavior of the other junior officers. Inspite of the fact that the American soldiers were not well prepared for the Iraq war they are still the best soldiers in the world. Reimer (2003) affirm that there is no military all over the world that matches the quality of Non-commissioned officers of the United States of America (p.2). With the establishment of Centre for Army Lessons Learned, the American soldiers are able to learn from their past experience in the battle field and improve their tactics for the future.
Topic: respect

Petraeus (2006) claims that the American’s great military superiority renders their enemies powerless and unable to mount any attack in future (p.2). In conclusion, the empowerment of NCOs in the Americas military was indeed the most fundamental thing that ever happened in the American army. Today, the American soldiers are able to perform their duties effectively in all the countries they operate. The training of NCOs and empowering them to lead and train the junior soldiers has instilled discipline and integrity within the military. More to this point, the soldiers are gaining necessary skills to face their future enemies with much confidence. Importantly, empowerment of NCOs contributed to quality of work that American soldiers have done and are doing, and this is possibly the reason why American soldiers are ranked the best in the world. Owing to the dynamics and the changing trends of the battle fields and the need for military to pace up with this trends, the United States of America will continue to improve and empower its military to prepare them for the future. The definition of disrespect is lack of respect, discourtesy, or rudeness.
Topic: respect

In the United States Military, there are rules and regulations you must follow, one of them being respect to a non commissioned officer. No matter the circumstance, whether you agree or not, you are not allowed to talk back, physically fight back, or question judgment. If this does happen, there are consequences and repercussions from the actions taken on your part. Uniformed Code of Military Justice states that you can ultimately be separated, honorably or dishonorably for actions taken on your part. You can also receive an article fifteen, which takes your hard earned money away from you and your family. It also will take any free time you may have, and can also limit your travel by telling you where you are allowed to go. The importance of maintaining correct protocol and Military bearing on and off duty, is essential because to show disrespect to an NCO when in uniform could cause disrespect among civilians about the military in general. Any disrespect towards my leaders, from team leader on up to Sergeant Major of the Army, along with the Platoon Leader on up to the Army Chief of Staff, or the President of the United States, can have a negative effect on the Morale and Welfare of those around me, junior or senior. If a Soldier who is junior to me sees my behavior, he may believe that I, being a Specialist, am right because I outrank him.
Topic: respect

Then this soldier is also doing the same things I am because he thinks he can. Now because this behavior has been passed on, the leaders will have a harder time dealing with their soldiers. This should include leaving non work-related issues at home, and away from the workplace because they can get in the way of performing my duties as a soldier, especially when the disagreement is with another soldier, or an NCO. Respect. It’s a very broad term when people use it. What is the definition of respect? When I looked it up in the dictionary it said ‘to show regard or admiration of something or someone. I see respect as a universal characteristic. Respect to me is a way of showing someone that you think highly of them and very well respect them. It is an important part of life, if a person is respected it makes him feel good and in return that person will respect you. Respect is important to me because if a person didn’t respect anyone they would not be admired. Respecting Non Commissioned Officers is a very important part of the army life.
Topic: respect

NCO’s feel good and feel like they have the power when they are respected and tend to be less disrespectful to their fellow soldiers. There’s an old saying among Army leaders which goes as follows, “Take care of your people, and they will take care of you.” The army strength lies in its people, more than any other single factor of combat readiness. A former Chief of Staff of the army once noted that it’s the way soldiers feel about themselves, their fellow soldiers and their outfit that is most likely to carry the battle. Take in consideration a situation that happened to me today, I was in a guard post around noon; I was disobeying an order given upon us by using an electronic item during my guard shift. One of the Sargent’s who was guarding at the time came up the tower and caught me in the act. Now there’s been two ways this situation could have gone. I could have easily cooperated and have just taken the punishment at the time being, but at the moment I wasn’t thinking and I was aggravated that I was caught. So I felt anger towards the NCO so I started to show no respect for him, and as follows I disrespected an NCO, both by verbal and body language.

CUSTOMS

Often it is these customs and traditions, strange to the civilian eye but solemn to the soldier, that keep the man in the uniform going in the unexciting times of peace. In war they keep him fighting at the front. The fiery regimental spirit fondly polished over decades and centuries possesses him in the face of the enemy. [The soldier] fights for the regiment, his battalion, his company, his platoon, his section, his comrade.

* Never “wear” a superior’s rank by saying something like, “the first sergeant wants this done now,” when in fact the first sergeant said no such thing. Speak with your own voice. * Never turn and walk away to avoid giving the hand salute. * Never run indoors or pretend you don’t hear (while driving, for example) to avoid standing reveille or retreat. * Never appear in uniform while under the influence of alcohol. * If you don’t know the answer to a superior’s question, you will never go wrong with the response, “I don’t know sir, but I’ll find out.”

4-5. most forms of military courtesy have some counterpart in civilian life. For example, we train soldiers to say sir or ma’am when talking to a higher ranking officer. Young men and women are sometimes taught to say sir to their fathers or ma’am to their mothers and likewise to other elders. It is often considered good manners for a younger person to say sir or ma’am when speaking to an older person. The use of the word sir is also common in the business world, such as in the salutation of a letter or in any well-ordered institution.

4-6. Military courtesy is not a one-way street. Enlisted personnel are expected to be courteous to officers and likewise officers are expected to return the courtesy. Mutual respect is a vital part of military courtesy. In the final analysis, military courtesy is the respect shown to each other by members of the same profession. Some of the Army’s more common courtesies include rendering the hand salute, standing at attention or parade rest, or even addressing others by their rank.

The most important reason to show respect to an NCO is that we are able to keep our attention on the mission at hand instead of having a horrible breakdown in communication in the heat of battle. Another, just as important, reason to respect an NCO is that without respect there would be no discipline. Baron Von Steuben was the first to recognize to that in order to have a successful military we would need to put into effect certain values, one of which was respect for NCO’s.

Not only should you respect NCO’s and anyone in the chain of command but everyone around you at all times. It would be in your best interest to be cognizant of your surroundings and watch what you say around others. If an individual finds what you have to say disrespectful then they have the right to file a SHARP complaint which could lead to disciplinary actions from your chain of command. SHARP ( Sexual Harassment Assault Response and Prevention) deals with the lack of respect to fellow soldiers and civilians alike. To prevent SHARP complaints one should respect oneself and treat others like how you would treat yourself. We must consistently enforce all policies related to sexual assault and harassment. We must execute prevention policies, training initiatives, and education programs; in order to get on top of any incident. (3)

Respect towards NCO’s is one of the Army’s most important values because it could prevent any failures in communication between the soldier and the NCO. If there is no respect then there would be no discipline within the junior enlisted. To an NCO they are a leader and to be a leader they must live and be the Army values. When a soldier starts being disrespectful to their NCO’s, anyone in their chain of command, or anyone those people can file a SHARP complaint against the soldier. The only way to not get SHARP complaints is to be mindful of your surroundings, be careful of what you say, and to respect yourself and others.

Also, people tend to respect others that teach them the most through life. First, I would like to start off with my respect for my father, the most important man in my life. A lot of children of today’s society are not able to say those words, due to the absence of a father figure. Not to boast about the situation, but it’s no other feeling in the world like it, especially when you are a young man growing up into adulthood.

I look at my instructor as a respectable, and great man because it takes a lot to bring in and teach hundreds of people the art of karate. Some people may never understand this significance, but when you are able to take young men and women off of the streets and turn their life around for the better, it is a blessing and only commendable by respect. With the discipline learned from the karate school many people was able to avoid controversy with others, a process which saved many lives from being harmed. Being a hero can mean pulling someone out of a deadly situation or giving someone a place to stay. It can also mean making better young men and women of society, and I believe this deserves great respect. The final person that I have the greatest respect for, is myself.

I believe that innocence ends when the illusion that the liking of oneself is taken away from him. Self-Respect is a quality which is extremely important for the dignity, confidence and personality of an individual. People with self-respect have the courage of accepting their mistakes. They exhibit certain toughness, a kind of moral courage and they display character. It is important to respect yourself because if you are not able to who will? Nobody can be you, besides you. For acquiring self-respect, we need to learn who we really are and to accept ourselves as we are and live with that. It is better to displease people by doing what is right rather than to temporarily please them by doing what you know is wrong.

To sum up this point, Self-respect is necessary for the happiness of Man. In the final analysis, every person has his own standards of judging people. Yet, there are certain set of qualities that are common and popular to gain respect in society. An individual who possess high moral values and shows compassion and solidarity towards other human beings is respected by a large section of society. Then there are other traits like general behavior, reaction, response and a personal growth. All these factors contribute to effectively comprehend the term, “respect”. It is a natural response or reaction towards an individual. To earn respect is a matter of individualistic integrity and rational behavior. It’s not easy nor hard to receive, but it is something that you would like from others. So go out and challenge yourself to be the best person you can possibly be. Who knows you may earn respect from an infinite amount of people.

President Bill Baldwin of Bladwin Scientific Instruments has a diversity issue on his hands between his Latino supervisors and Vietnamese assemblers. Tran, a Vietnamese assembler has complained to Mr. Baldwin regarding the disrespect shown by the Latino supervisors to the Vietnamese assemblers.

Mr. Baldwin needs to lie out expectations from his management team that any discriminatory or harassment related acts will not be tolerated. He needs to speak with HRM and his management team and let them know that there are HR policies and laws that they must follow within the workplace. “The EEOC has issued guidelines on racial/ethnic harassment and the commission has advised companies to adopt policies against harassment of any type, including ethnic jokes, vulgar epithets, racial slurs, and physical actions” (Mathis, Jackson, Nkomo, Fottler, McAfee, 2012, p.30). Based upon Tran’s complaint and complete investigation needs to take place regarding possible discriminatory and racial/ethnic harassment and if needed disciplinary actions need to be taken against guilty parties.

Mr. Baldwin should act with HRM to create a hiring policy that allows for a greater diverse workforce. HRM needs to invest in different recruiting methods to attract diverse candidates other than the majority of Latinos or Vietnamese. Reaching out to local colleges, local churches, county and city offices, posting job openings on job boards, etc. will allow the word of job openings to spread to different diverse groups. “Plan to post job opportunities on a wide variety of online employment websites, such as Times Change Women Employment Service, Diversity Link, LGBT Job World and Simply Hired as well as newspapers and magazines that target different ages, minority groups and alternative lifestyle communities. Arrange to attend a variety of job fairs and recruitment events, including those which highlight the achievements and credentials of visible minorities, women and alternative lifestyle groups” (Wolski, n.d.).

Mr. Baldwin should also look to change his management team and add more diversity to it. This will enable all employees to feel as though they are being evaluated based in their work and not on their race/ethnicity. Doing this Mr. Baldwin is able to create a healthier environment and have the Vietnamese feel as though they are respected. I believe Baldwin Scientific Instruments is not too diverse, I actually think they are lacking in diversity. If there was more diversity among management and assemblers the harassment and discriminatory issues could dissipate. There will always be employee relations issue to deal with in any company, but having a large diverse workforce can create effectiveness within the workplace. “Companies that hire the best talent from a diverse group of employees can operate more effectively than less-diverse companies. The best available talent means a company’s collective education and experience are greater than most competitive companies. Also, companies that hire more diverse employees tend to inspire their workers to perform to the best of their ability, according to multiculturaladvantage.com. In addition, more experienced and educated people tend to be better at planning, time management, goal setting, work delegation and projects completed on time” (Suttle, n.d.).

Without self-respect, lots of people will fail to realize that what they want and need in life does really matter, and due to the fact that of this, they will go through life being unpleasant. They are also more likely to take threats with their health and the law, due to the fact that they don’t think that their life deserves all that much, or that people do not care what occurs to them. Self-respect is required to having a pleased and rewarding life, so everybody needs to have regard on their own.

The second crucial factor that people need self-respect is that you need to respect yourself prior to anybody else will respect you. If someone has so little dignity and self-esteem that they are unable to defend themselves, no one is going to appreciate them. One great example of this holds true of peer pressure. A young person who succumbs to everything will not be appreciated by their peers at all: simply expected to do the next big thing that they’re pressured to do.
Topic: respect

Nevertheless, having plenty of self-esteem is no good if it completely surpasses the level of respect that we have for others. Regard is a two-way street, and if you do not treat other individuals with the respect they deserve, you may appreciate yourself but no one else will. Take teachers, for instance. They need to earn respect and if they treat their students with regard, they will get it in return. If they just require it without deserving it, however, nobody will respect them at all.

Most teachers have gone through a long process of learning themselves in order to be up there at the front of the room teaching you. The best thing you could do in return could be to respect them and their time. Every day, there’s a portion of time you have with every teacher. Of course, they would hate for you to waste their time. Not only are you jeopardizing your own opportunity to learn, but you’re also jeopardizing your peers’ opportunities by being a distraction.

Interrupting class time is highly disrespectful. The reason why you’re in a teacher’s class is to basically learn. If you decide to disrupt their class, you’re also disrupting the bond of respect that the teacher has towards you. Just think, how are you supposed to properly get an education if the teacher does not respect you? Second of all, another example of being respectful is respecting your peers. It’s clearly disrespectful for you to put them down, call them names, and discourage them. I’m sure you would like for them to respect you. If you give a certain respect, it’s automatic for them to respect you back. If we all respected each other, the school environment would be much more peaceful.

She stated that the people in her committee wouldn’t give others the chance to speak; when they actually did get something across each other’s minds, someone would discourage their idea. With help from a radio station, she realized that if they didn’t respect each other’s ideas and wait their turn to speak, nothing would get done. She then said that at the beginning of the next meeting, she would make it clear that the “golden rule” would be intact. In class, being a respectful person toward a peer could be as simple as not cheating. You have to respect the fact that that person did their work, and should be honored for that.

Outside of class, an example of a respectful student could be if you’re walking down the hall and you bump into someone you particularly don’t know too well, you would say “excuse me” as a sign of respect towards them. If you’re a respectful person inside and outside of school, I’m pretty sure you’d have a ton of friends and a lot of people lining up wanting to be your friend. Not only that, but being a respectful person gives off a great impression towards teachers. Lastly, another important concept of being respectable is having respect for yourself. If people see that you don’t have respect for yourself, how are they supposed to give you respect? Yes, you might respect them, but if you look at the situation thoroughly, they can’t possibly respect you knowing that you lack self-respect. The first step into gaining other people’s respect is to basically have respect for yourself. When others notice that, they’ll most definitely have no trouble in respecting you.

Once you have self-respect, you have the ability to gain others’ respect as well. In conclusion, the question: “How can respect make me a better student?” made me think of a myriad of real situations dealing with respect. Not only do you need to respect your elders, teachers, and other students, but you most importantly need to respect yourself. After thinking about that, I have concluded that being a respected student will take you places. How can you move on in life if you’re not respected? Respect is a precious value. One can gain and lose respect in a blink of an eye, or in a simple snap of fingers- easy as that. Being on top of your work, kind and courteous to everyone, and having a good attitude at most times will have teachers thinking of you as a respected student. In addition, having teachers’ respect is very blessing and most likely, a student would be entirely grateful.

A lot of times students disrespect the teacher in many ways. As students we are very stubborn and it takes a lot of warnings, maybe even a consequence, for us to be able to follow directions. One of the most common ways of a student disrespecting a teacher is talking during class, when they are not supposed to. Even when the teacher tells the students to stop speaking some of them will just completely ignore the teacher and not follow directions, continuing their conversation.

Coming from a Filipino family, my parents taught me to use “po” and “opo” every time I will be talking to elders and of course, to never dare to talk back— constantly telling me that these show respect. In addition, my former teachers would also repeat to me that I should always respect my elders. Since I was too young then and still incapable of thinking thoroughly, I used to believe that was the right thing to do. It was a good thing I realized it is not.

I have encountered a number of secretaries or persons in authority who would converse with me on formal matters and would speak to and address me as if I was just their high school friend, their little sister, and the worst of all, was one of their maids. As persons in authority who are engaged to talking to people every day, they should be mindful enough of how they would treat their clients. No matter how high one’s position is, I would never respect him if he acts like an uneducated person who is rude, arrogant, and impolite. And if in case he gets hurt by my usual disrespectful acts—being frank and straight-forward of my thoughts—I would never apologize, because he needs to know that what he was doing with his clients is wrong, and someone has to point it out to him, no matter how harsh it may sound.

Lastly, I disrespect them because they are not always right and they could be corrected. Being older does not mean one is already more intelligent, although they could be wiser due to their experiences, but still there is a possibility that some of today’s generation is smarter than of their parents’ generation. So I believe that letting the elders do away with their wrong philosophies in life would do no good to any side of the parties. I believe that having the courage to disrespect my elders does not only mean that I could step up for myself and express my opinion on what I think is right, but also it could help the elders to think and reflect more on their views of things, which for me is a good thing.

Therefore, it is important to know how to gain respect and to maintain morale with good leadership skills. Respect cannot be demanded, it is an asset that has to be earned. From the very childhood kids are taught to respect their parents, elders, teachers and an unending list of social obligations. But an ambiguity arises when the teachings do no match the practical experiences. Nobody can earn respect by suppression or by flaunting power. It is a deliberate action that cannot be forced upon others. There is an individual form of respect also, which is well known as self-respect. If an individual cannot respect himself, he cannot respect any other person. A feeling of worth and rational judgment gives rise to self-respect. Self-respect is an essential component for the prosperity of any individual. A person with low self-respect may act as a timid. On the other hand, self-respect does not violate the individuality or respect of others. A clear distinction occurs between self-respect and ego. Self-respect is recognition of intrinsic worth. A person works to protect and preserve his self-respect. On the other hand, ego can be defined as forceful or aggressive imposition of one’s thoughts or judgments over the others.

Hence respect can be called as a behavioral component. A person inadvertently judges the other on the basis of the expressed behavior and qualities possessed by him. Respect is also an expression of accepting a certain trait or set of traits demonstrated by that person. The qualities or traits that we appreciate, we tend to respect those who own them. So, respecting a person or not comes naturally. Every person has his own standards of judging people.

To earn respect is a matter of individual integrity and rational behavior. Loyalty is a very broad term which may be applicable in case of one’s family, locality or the country. A loyal person is ready to sacrifice even his own life for the sake of his master, friend, relative or the country. A loyal person bears a moral character, honest outlook, and disciplined manners. To be a loyal person, one must have a high sense of respect and self-respect. Honor, Great men and women earned it. They have gone beyond their normal duties to earn this. Honor is never given. When someone goes above and beyond honor is earned. Without respect for others and having a good moral judgment honor would never be earned. In closing, the United States Army Core Values all complement each other.
