Mike Dilbeck
When a culture of dignity, courage, and integrity is nurtured — in a company, on a campus, throughout a community and society — a safe and engaged environment of trust emerges with no space or tolerance for bullying, hazing, sexual violence, discrimination, or any unwanted behavior.
Mike Dilbeck is a social entrepreneur, certified speaking professional, and expert on the topics of courage, dignity, and integrity.
Mike believes that way too many people are being torn down rather than built up. These violations of dignity in our world lead to disengagement, not feeling worthy, and retaliation.
Mike also believes the impact of inaction is that way too many people are being mistreated, abused, violated, and even killed, while others look on and do nothing. Or, don't do enough.
He also believes that integrity is our access to workability in the world: relationships work, companies work, organizations work...life works!
So...
Mike is on a mission to ensure that every person knows they are valuable and worthy.
He calls on us to go beyond our fear and shame to show courage and honor the dignity of others...and ourselves.
He calls on us to change the way individuals, organizations, companies, and communities react when someone is being adversely impacted by inappropriate, abusive, or unhealthy behavior — whether it's bullying, hazing, sexual violence, discrimination, or any life issue — by standing up, stepping in, and speaking out.
He calls on us to always lift others up rather than tear them down — to always treat them as though they matter...because they do!
He calls on us to bring integrity into our lives by always honoring the word we give to others...and to ourselves.
This mission is to be fulfilled...
In organizations. In business. In community. In life.
For colleagues. For family. For friends. For strangers.

RESPONSE ABILITY: A Call for Courageous Leadership
Many of today's problem behaviors - bullying (on the playground and in the workplace), sexual violence (including harassment), fraud, corruption, alcohol/drug abuse, discrimination, and other everyday life issues - have witnesses. Many situations have those who see it or hear it...and do nothing. Many times, there are passive bystanders who are disempowered and scared - fears of retaliation and of sacrifice to quality of life, social stature, or well-being take over. Shame consumes us and...
