TrainingBriefs® I Had to Say Something!
Stereotypes and biases have not place at work. They can (and do) creep into our conversations and influence our actions.

If we don't, they can easily lead to misunderstandings and reinforced stereotypes. Speaking up is an important part of creating and maintaining a respectful work environment.
