​CONCERN IS IGNORED WHEN
 
 
Your thoughts, feelings, or actions are devalued.

 
You are treated as an adversary and kept at a distance.
 

Your freedom to make decisions is impinged upon.
 
 
Your relative standing is treated as inferior to that of others.
 

 
Your current role and its activities are not personally fulfilling.
​CONCERN IS MET WHEN

 
Your thoughts, feelings, and actions are acknowledged as having merit.

  
You are treated as a colleague.

​
Others respect your freedom to decide important matters.

​
Your standing where deserved is given full recognition.

 
​
You so define your role and its activities that you find them fulfilling.
