The Future of Work™ Generations in the Workplace
SOLLAH EXCLUSIVE!
Each generation brings its own unique work styles and expectations to the workplace, based on common experiences many of them share. Generational influences - like parenting styles, the pandemic, war, the economy, global impacts, popular culture and other defining moments or events - contribute to generational characteristics that are brought into the workplace. To have an inclusive workplace, you have to be intentional and willing to listen to others, gain perspectives, and make adjustments, with the ultimate goal of staying connected… across generations.
Diversity 201™ - Are You Speaking English?

Inclusion is the intentional act of involving, empowering, and inviting all employees to contribute their best. It’s the key to achieving the advantage of diversity. Inclusion gives people a sense of belonging and the experience that they are welcomed, respected, valued, and treated fairly based on who they are and what they bring and contribute to the organization. Most organizations recognize the competitive advantage of diversity, equity, and inclusion.

Inclusion is making sure everyone has an opportunity to fully participate in the workplace – to be on the team. Inclusion is about recognizing and responding to the needs of all employees. It’s talking about co-workers in a supportive way, rather than criticizing them behind their backs. Most importantly, inclusion is about making sure work assignments and activities, including work-related social events, do not exclude or disadvantage anyone.
Maximized Leadership™ Understanding & Beating Bias
SOLLAH EXCLUSIVE!
Bias is something we all have, and by itself, it’s neither good nor bad. It’s a conscious or unconscious judgment we make based on information we have learned from our own experiences or by what we have been taught by others.

By being self-aware and willing to engage with others when bias is unintentionally implied or expressed, we can better resolve problems and promote more effective working relationships.
TrainingBytes® Go Back to Where I Came From

Diversity 101™ Don't Know What You Got
Biases are real and we all have ‘em. Our biases describe both positive and negative mindsets towards individuals and groups. There a lot to such a little word.

Diversity 101™ Seriously, At Work?
Gender and gender identity continue to present significant challenges due to strongly held traditions, beliefs and values. We need to be sure to watch out for double standards - such as, norms or “rules” applied to some groups and not to others.
Diversity 101™ The "PC" Police are Here
We’ve probably all heard expressions that seem harmless. But the truth is their effects can be very destructive. And when we have to let a co-worker - maybe someone we've worked with for years - know that he or she has said something that's causing a lot of friction - it can be a real challenge because it's easy to fall into sarcasm.

Diversity 101™ That Wasn't Funny
