Workshop Overview
Inside a team that appreciates and leverages its diverse array of talented people - are typically high-value employees who choose, with intention, respect, social harmony, and interdependence. But while most work to support these environments, the same group of people can also be the ones who inadvertently undermine the team and themselves. They don't know what they don't know, and what they don't know can hurt the health of a team full of people who are both similar and dissimilar to them. Diverse Team(s)Work! answers: What do individuals need to know and do to be positive contributors to the health of their diverse work team? The risks of what individuals and teams can encounter when biases are left unchecked are also examined, while emphasizing the core behaviors that maintain healthy work relationships – an essential element of the team's achievement and their own.
