Diversity At Work

Finding Common Ground

For any initiative to be successful there must be buy-in and commitment from leaders and influencers within the organization. 

Finding Common Ground™ explores the business case, fosters understanding and clarifies why effectively managing diversity in the workplace will help the organization achieve its mission. 

 

Leading A Diverse Workforce

Since leadership is a key ingredient to organizational success, starting at the head, with leadership, is critical to success.   

Leading A Diverse Workforce™ is designed for leaders, both formal and informal, to assess and build skills for leading and managing a diverse workforce.

This module will arm leaders with practical strategies for increasing engagement and productivity.

Working Well Together

Designed for all employees in the organization, Working Well Together™ explores:

• Dimensions of Diversity (Differences & Similarities)
• Perceptions, Stereotypes & Biases
• Barriers to Inclusion

For diversity and inclusion efforts to work, all employees must be aware of what diversity is, why leveraging diversity is important to business success and their part in making diversity work.

Celebrating diversity is foundational to working well together.

Erasing Isms

Conscious and unconscious bias wreaks havoc in our world and in our places of work.  They show up as isms (Racism, Sexism, Ageism, Ableism, Classism, just to name a few) and must be traced to their root cause.  

Laws are in place to help protect against conscious bias.

Erasing Isms™ introduces a three(3) step process for uprooting and dismantling the effects of implicit bias. 

Building BEST Teams

Highly productive teams must be built.  It does not happen by accident.  Its intentional.

Building BEST Teams™ helps a group of individuals understand the stages of group development, assess their current state and develop skills to move from forming to performing. 

Armed with an individual action plan, each group member can take 100% responsibility fortheir part in helping the group become a high performing team.

The Generations

From a generational perspective, the workforce is more diverse than ever. This fact makes for a highly dynamic environment potentially laced with interpersonal collisions and unhealthy conflict.

The Generations™ is designed to explore attributes of each generation, not for the purpose of labeling, but for the purpose of understanding how the generations can “blend” to achieve organizational success.
