Culture Wars: How to Deal with Diversity Deftly

Every person who watches the news has been made aware of the cultural unrest in the USA. From the Black Lives Matter movement to what seems like endless political protests, it can appear that no one is getting along anymore.
In the microcosmos of business, leaders are compelled to bring in “more diversity” and to recognize the unique differences between the individuals who are in their employ. Or they might find themselves managing people whose lifestyle or values are in direct conflict with their own beliefs.
Even the most open-minded person can find themselves triggered by others. Dr. Jayne Gardner, acclaimed creator of the “Gardner Method”, offers audiences a clear, concise strategy to help any group of people get along better, find common ground and support one another in a peaceful way to achieve their highest goals.
Dr. Gardner has helped build peak performance teams and eradicate internal strife for more than three decades. In this edge-of-your-seat presentation, she will help your audience:
- Identify the root cause of why some people just trigger our intense negative reactions
- How to recognize brewing problems long before they reach the point of disruption to the business
- Why you don’t have to agree with someone to get along with them
- Ways to help your staff live in harmony
- How what’s happened to you affects your beliefs and behaviors today
- Healing past hurts to create greater inclusion and deliver better leadership
- Freeing yourself from the co-dependency of miserable relationships
- Why emotional reactivity causes business problems and what to do about it
- How using the Gardner Method will increase your peace, raise team productivity and engender a well-integrated diverse workforce
As people are thrown together and told to get along, this admonition is often lacking in the how-to. It is only as a result of knowing one’s own strengths and inner landmines that we can come to others with respect and best intentions. Dr. Gardner’s presentation provides that missing how so that the individuals who comprise any company have the skills they need to excel in a diverse and ever-changing world.
