Increasingly, both research and "bottom line" informat        indicate that attending to
diversity and cross-cultural issues is an extremely cost-effective investment in terms
of human and financial resources for achieving organizational goals.

One of the first elements of managing diversity is to             how one's own cultural
values influence interactions with other team members          consumers, and how they
may impact upon effectiveness in cross-cultural situations.

This awareness and honesty about values that are brought to the relationship may help
modify behavior so that these values are not imposed on the other person. Further, it
assists individuals to attempt to understand the cultural values of the employee or
consumer and how they may play out in the relationship.

Cultural values determine perceptions of and action toward others who are culturally
different and to develop the proper competencies to manage these differences with
respect


   v Preventing the “ISMs” and discrimination

Our unique perceptions of ourselves, our world, and the people who populate our world

information, or can create distortions, and interfere with our understanding and ability to
manage people who are different.

Within the context of diversity there are many "isms," including, but not limited to:
rac-ism, sex-ism, class-ism, age-ism and heterosex-ism. What all "isms" have in
common is a regard for all members of a particular group as the same and in an
unfavorable light. This workshop will offer tools to limit our stereotypes, prejudices, and

    v Sexual Harassment

Sexual harassment complaints have to be promptly and fairly handled with urgency as it
can the difference of winning or losing a very public wsuit; that can not only cost
money but also reputation.

How people function in the workplace has much to do with how they relate to one
another and the relationships they develop. What is deemed as an appropriate or
inappropriate relationship is often hard for people to decipher, and even more difficult to
determine when someone crosses the line.

That is why articulating clear HR policies on what constitutes sexual harassment is
crucial even when done unintentionally as sexual harassment impacts the morale.

Managers and supervisors have to be trained on how to             aware when you or
someone else has crossed the line and established an inappropriate relationship; what
constitutes quid pro quo or hostile work environment and the applicable laws as well as
the complaints and reporting procedures



   v Diversity is not Affirmative Action

We will visit what Affirmative action is, the laws and policies attached to it; how it differs
from Diversity.

We will make a business case for Diversity and discuss its challenges, barriers and
advantages
