Civility includes the behaviors that help preserve the norms for mutual respect in the workplace (or any community). Civility demands that one speak in ways that are respectful, responsible, and restrained. We avoid behavior that is offensive, rude, demeaning, and threatening.

If the lack of civility had a child, its name would be drama. Anytime we feel threatened, we react. Our reactions are different in type and severity.
