RISING TOGETHER: HOW TO BRIDGE DIVIDES AND CREATE A MORE INCLUSIVE WORKPLACE

 

Using vivid, real-life examples, Sally helps participants recognize the common triggers that can undermine efforts to build strong relationships in a volatile and sometimes reactive workplace. These triggers include:

  • How do we position ourselves to be visible
  • How we communicate across boundaries
  • How our beliefs about fairness shape our expectations
  • How we engage with and develop networks
  • How do we use humor to bond or provoke

Sally's emphasis is not on eliminating environmental triggers- which lie beyond our control- but on managing our responses in a way that serves our interests and enables us to engage allies broadly. She offers proven ways to do so, with an emphasis on avoiding stock responses and writing scripts that give others the benefit of our generosity- even if we aren't sure they've earned it.

Participants will come away with an enhanced understanding of how they can build stronger and more harmonious relationships along with tools for diffusing common triggers.
