The Diversity Series is a 4 part training series designed for managers and employees. We focus on the legal, ethical and practical definitions of diversity and address some of the complex issues organizations and employees face. We explore issues of communication styles, workplace values, conflict, stereotypes, fear and building productive workplace relationships with those who are different from us in a variety of ways. Each program includes dramatizations designed to help focus and stimulate discussion. Program 1: On the Threshold of Change is the overivew module. We explore the definition of “diversity” and how it can impact our work lives. We examine the changing workforce and the issues these changes raise as a process, not a problem. Conflict is viewed as an element in this process and we consider the communications skills we need to productively navigate these changes. Program 2: Gender and Sexual Orientation Workplace Issues begins by dispelling many of the popular stereotypes about men, women, gays and lesbians. We discuss what is acceptable workplace behavior and the fears and concerns that challenge mutual respect and lead to conflict. Program 3: Race, Ethnicity, Language and Religion Workplace Issues takes on the stereotypes that have divided people for centuries. A distinguished collection of managers, line workers and consultants share their experiences and insights. Program 4: Age and Physical Ability Workplace Issues begins by dispelling some of the mythology that surrounds people who are young, old or differently abled. We evaluate our fears and look at how we can integrate all qualified employees regardless of age or physical ability.
