Description

Respecting others' opinions does not mean being untrue to our own. It simply requires us to recognize that others are entitled to look at the world differently and that when they share their views with us, they can expect a fair hearing. What we believe is an integral part of who we are.

How can we respect other people's opinions?
Encourage a civil and respectful conversation. Be willing to explain why you feel how you feel, but also be willing to listen to the other party explain their perspective. Aim to use objective facts, not emotions or subjective opinions, when having a collaborative conversation. Calmly explain your point of view.
