TrainingBriefs® Gathering Competitive Information
Ethics concern an individual's moral judgments about right and wrong. Decisions taken within an organization may be made by individuals or groups, but whoever makes them will be influenced by the culture of the company. One area of concern within many organizations is the gathering of competitive information. Collecting information about your competitors makes good business sense. However, you must do so in an ethical and reasonable way. Unfortunately, this doesn’t always happen. If you ever find yourself in this situation, it helps to know how to act.

TrainingBriefs® Happy Holidays
New Micro-Learning! When the holiday season comes around, many people - by default - wish others a "Merry Christmas." But for people who don’t celebrate Christmas, this can feel disrespectful... and even rude. As we are seeking to create a respectful and inclusive workplace culture for everyone, part of that means recognizing that people celebrate different religions and come from different cultures and backgrounds.

TrainingBriefs® Her Hijab
New Micro-Learning! Making assumptions and perpetuating stereotypes about someone based on their religion or their religious clothing does not lead to an inclusive or respectful workplace. People often have different religious practices based upon their faith. Some of these practices include wearing something like a crucifix. For others, it means wearing a piece of attire such as a hijab. Today’s inclusive and respectful workplace culture means that the ability to practice your religion is open to you.

TrainingBriefs® His Husband
New Micro-Learning! There are still many stereotypes and prejudices about LGBTQ+ people - and this can often make it hard to come to work depending upon the attitudes and behaviors of co-workers. While religious beliefs about the LGBTQ+ community vary, what is important is that within the workplace, we provide a respectful environment for all workers.

TrainingBriefs® I Can Hear You!
New Micro-Learning! People with disabilities live normal, happy lives and most of the time are very independent and self-sufficient. Don’t offend someone by assuming that they cannot do something or that they have to have your help, rather be willing to offer if it is desired. These stereotypes often lead to bias. Embracing our differences… as well accepting each other… are key components to creating a respectful and inclusive workplace where we all want to participate… and stay!

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. When we hear or witness these types of statements, we need to speak up and drive conversation around the impact (even if the intent was not to hurt a co-worker). 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.

Most importantly, they need to trust that their leaders are beside them - every step of the way.

TrainingBriefs® Respecting Sexual Orientation
Knowing when and how to deal with issues of sexual orientation, or sexuality, or even lifestyle choices can be a challenge. They're the kind of things that can give rise to gossip and innuendo, at the very least; and outright hostility and harassment if you don't deal with them correctly.

TrainingBriefs® Why Creating a Sense of Belonging Matters
Belonging is that feeling of security and support - a sense of inclusion and acceptance within a group. It’s when an individual can bring their authentic self to work. By creating genuine feelings of belonging for all, an organization improves both engagement and performance. In today's increasingly diverse workplace, it's more important than ever for organizations to cultivate a culture of belonging. That’s a place in which all employees feel included, respected, and valued, regardless of their race, gender, age, religion, sexual orientation, or any other personal characteristic. When employees feel like they belong, they are more likely to be engaged, motivated, and committed to their work, which benefits our organization as a whole.

TrainingBriefs® Why Respect Matters
Respect sets the tone for the overall organizational culture. A culture of respect promotes fairness, integrity, and ethical behavior, which strengthens our organization's values and identity. When workplace respect is prioritized and consistently practiced, it creates a positive, inclusive, and supportive environment, leading to increased job satisfaction, productivity, and overall well-being of the workforce.

PREVAIL!® for Elementary Schools (eLearning)
An armed intruder situation is something few of us have prepared for. And it’s that lack of preparation that raises anxiety… and fear. As an administrator, teacher or staff member… others look to you for help… especially in times of need. One of the times you may be asked to lead is when the unthinkable happens. It may help you to think of preparing for an armed intruder event in the same way that you prepare your staff or students for a fire, an earthquake or tornado. By taking a few minutes to train for one of these events, you know what to do in the very unlikely event that it actually happens. The exact same thing holds true when preparing for an armed intruder event.

TrainingBriefs® Let’s Not Shake Hands
New Micro-Learning! Using good judgement and good hygiene – while following organizational policies – can help prevent the spread of workplace sickness - without upsetting others.

TrainingBriefs® The Boys Club
New Micro-Learning! Bias refers to negative or positive assumptions usually applied to groups of people. Bias can be persistent, harmful and/or unequal treatment of an individual based on a characteristic they possess or beliefs about a group with which they are identified. When we think about other people, we need to be aware of how bias may come into play. This is particularly true when the same behavior is seen as positive or negative depending upon if the person is a man or a woman.

TrainingBriefs® The Greatest Generation?
New Micro-Learning! Having a diverse workplace is very important. But until we are inclusive – meaning that we truly include and respect others - we are wasting an opportunity to leverage the power of that diversity. We can make assumptions (and stereotypes) about people based on their age… like younger people will be much better at embracing and using technology when compared to those that are older.
