With your input, we’ll design sessions to address the details of the situation.
Cultural Sensitivity Training
Participants learn the importance of managing diversity, broadly defined, at all levels both inside and outside the organization. We cover The Protected Groups based on relevant US legislation, how diversity affects the bottom-line, false assumptions, and how they can lead to unintentional biases; unconscious bias, micro-aggressions, how valuing differences prevents workplace discrimination and harassment; cross-cultural communications; cultural sensitivity; and approaches for resolving diversity-related conflict.

This is an interactive training session that provides participants with techniques and strategies for taking control of their situation at work, getting help when required, supporting others, and working for favourable workplace outcomes.
