Do We Have An Epidemic of Jerks in Academia? Combating Negativity With The Swiss Cheese Model
Update: 2024-09-18
Description
While unkind individuals and negative behaviors exist in academia—as they do in the broader society—we have the power to mitigate their impact. By serving as a first line of defense and embracing a collective approach akin to the Swiss cheese model, we can ensure that everyone feels supported and valued. This method involves overlapping layers of support where the gaps in one layer are covered by another, creating a strong network of protection. Inspired by younger generations who have successfully fostered safe, bully-free communities, our goal is to cultivate an academic environment rooted in mutual support and well-being. Through conscious effort and community building, we can make academia a place where everyone thrives.
