- Summary
- Diversity training failed because of its focus on the awareness, understanding and appreciation of differences rather than teaching basic skills to help employees relate more effectively with each other regardless of their differences. Companies have the right to require professional behavior from their employees. They do not have the right to ask their employees to change their personal values and belief systems. This book provides a blueprint for a skills-based solution to the elimination of discrimination and harassment.
- It emphasizes the development of professional relationship skills to help employees work more more effectively with their bosses, their peers, their team members, their customers, and all those individuals different from themselves. Two unique training modules are the core of the workplace relationship skills program: "Managing Your Individual and Organizational MindTalk" and a "Workplace Relationship Skills ToolKit."
