Carrying Out Tasks In A Positive & Courteous Manner

[danielle87]

one of the questions for my assignment is why is it important to carry out task in a positive and courteous way.? i just dont know how to word it plus i feel like i have already answered a similar question in the past. i think its important as it makes for a more pleasant environment for the children and the other educators. but i don't think that is enough for me to put for this question.

Staff need to demonstrate how a positive environment is provided for children through their interactions and modelling of desired behaviours. Modelling respectful, positive and courteous relationships to young children should encourage team members to do the same for one another.

Verbal and non-verbal communication needs to be consistent to assist the development of genuine understandings and relationships—our behaviour with children and team members also need to be consistent. The consistent demonstration of respectful, positive and courteous relationships between children, staff, parents and management will facilitate the development of genuine and respectful relationships. To achieve this consistency, team members need to be able to recognise and discuss the need and value of these professional behaviours and develop strategies that will be implemented throughout the service to facilitate the use of these behaviours.

When working with parents, team members, management and the community, there will be times when our emotions will be challenged. As with all people, children’s services staff have days when they feel frustrated, angry or grief-stricken. It is important in the development of working relationships that we are able to express our feelings in an open, real and honest way that is also respectful of people’s feelings.
