Today's diverse workforce poses both challenges and opportunities. Join us to increase your skills!
Companies, multinational corporations, schools, hospitals, and most employers are seeking employees who are able to work effectively in a diverse workforce.
- On campus employers are looking for students that can relate to others in our diverse community.
- Everyone wants to be able to relate to each other with Respect.
- Is "Politically Correct" the Right thing to do?
- We bring you the real thing to BE.
In the Welcoming Diversity Workshop, participants do a series of activities, empowering individuals of all ages and backgrounds to take leadership in building inclusive communities.
NCBI’s approach of combining emotional healing work with practical skill training enables participants to learn quickly in a safe environment that values individual initiative.
NCBI’s seasoned training teams-- representing a wide variety of backgrounds--coupled with the diversity of the participants in the seminar, provide a valuable resource that helps people understand how they are both alike and different.
Workshop Goals
- Identify the information and misinformation we learned about other groups;
- Identify and express pride in the group (s) to which we belong;
- Learn how groups, other than our own, experience mistreatment;
- Learn the personal impact of specific incidents of discrimination; and
- Learn how to interrupt prejudicial jokes, remarks, and slurs.
