Being equitable, empathic and inclusive are important social responsibility behaviours to enact as an Arts Administrator and will ensure I plan, communicate and work as a good workplace citizen. By engendering these qualities I will have much more success in working across different teams such as with artists, management, other administrators, Minister’s staff and the public. For example, if I’m a socially responsible workplace citizen working with a Filipino artist I will engage in appropriate and professional communication which considers their background and understanding of organisational norms. This models how the organisation wishes to communicate to the Artist and across the workplace. Care and justice, as a result of empathic emotional regulation, are proven to increase and maintain organisational output as well as personal workplace satisfaction and wellbeing. By choosing to use these behaviours at work I can be reasonably sure that I understand the needs of the organisation and my colleagues and how I can personally contribute to maintaining or improving them where necessary.
If I wasn’t a socially responsible workplace citizen I might ignore the fact that the Filipino artist has a background different to mine and choose not to engage communication skills which take into account that English is their second language. I may choose not to use professional and inclusive language or even treat them less professionally. It seems obvious, but by reading the supporting material on this topic I can see how citizenship behaviours modelled to me as a child have really impacted positively on how I respond as an adult. This topic has also shown me that it is important to take time to consider what good citizenship is and how it can help me become more employable and more valued employee.
