TrainingBriefs® What Language Is That?
New Micro-Learning! While it can be frustrating not being able to communicate easily, the reality is that everyone in the world has an accent.

TrainingBriefs® Can She Hack It?

Addressing tough attitude issues is a common problem for managers. You can have a terrific team of people, but one bad attitude can be the weak link in the chain that pulls everyone else down. It’s very difficult to hide a bad attitude. Research shows us that employees generally express their bad attitudes in three primary ways.
TrainingBriefs® Actively Preventing Harassment
New Micro-Learning! Harassment in our workplace is unacceptable – in any format! Being an active bystander in a situation where someone is being harassed can be speaking up and telling the harasser to stop… or it can be subtle (e.g. stepping between the harasser and the target of the harassment). The important thing to remember is that if you see harassing behavior - and you feel comfortable - you CAN intervene.
TrainingBriefs® Workplace Inclusion
New Micro-Learning!

Diversity is a given. It simply exists. But… creating an inclusive team environment that values diversity helps us achieve our organization’s goals – both cultural and financial.
TrainingBriefs® Diversity in Recruiting & Hiring
New Micro-Learning! Studies have shown that having a diverse team is more innovative. But let's be real, finding and hiring diverse talent is often easier said than done. You may even be asking yourself, how can we get past potential bias and get the right talent in the door? And how do we keep them once we have them?

TrainingBriefs® Zero Tolerance for Practical Jokes
New Micro-Learning! Have you ever played a practical joke on a co-worker? What about telling an “inside joke” in front of an unsuspecting new employee? It’s all just innocent fun, isn’t it? Not necessarily – it depends on if it crosses the line into malicious teasing or even hazing another employee – all behaviors that are unprofessional are inappropriate in the workplace.
TrainingBriefs® Responding to Workplace Gossip

TrainingBriefs® Unwelcomed Advances
New Micro-Learning! Our working relationships are complicated for all kinds of reasons. That's why you really have to know where the lines are when it comes to managing interactions with co- workers, customers, and vendors. Take the unwanted pursuit of a relationship, for example.

TrainingBriefs® Addressing Stereotypes

TrainingBriefs® Workplace Hazing
New Micro-Learning! Hazing, teasing, profanity, and horseplay are the kinds of unprofessional behaviors that lead to low morale, lost productivity, turnover and even safety issues.

TrainingBriefs® Explicit Bias
New Micro-Learning! Explicit bias refers to the attitudes and beliefs we have about a person or group of people on a conscious level. We know these biases exist. We are conscious of them. When people perceive their biases to be valid, they are more likely to justify unfair treatment – which has negative impacts on the target of the bias as well as the entire organization.
TrainingBriefs® A Difference of Opinion
New Micro-Learning! You may do a superb job of preparing for a meeting, running the meeting and even getting the best out of your team. However, it’s likely that you will encounter a challenge to your ability to stay on track by participants who express strong differences of opinion. If differences of opinion are not resolved effectively, a meeting can spin off track, become chaotic, and prevent the achievement of the meeting’s purpose and desired outcomes.
