About this course
This compelling workshop will challenge your assumptions, encourage you to inspect your feelings, help you adapt to others, and take personal responsibility for managing diversity in the workplace.
The fundamental challenge for people working effectively in diverse teams and work places is difference. Much has been discussed about the challenge of working with people from different generations. One point of agreement is that training helps us recognise and move away from negative judgements and conflicts towards respect and cooperation.
