Happy Thursday!

I hope all is well. We are amid a global and unprecedented experiment when it comes to working. Everything is being re-evaluated: How do we work? Where do we work? What's the meaning of work? So, this month we are exploring the potential future of teams, Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) strategies to get the most out of diverse teams, and our triggers when it comes to conflicts. Enjoy!

The Future Of Diversity And Inclusion In Corporate America

Today, diversity and inclusion (D&I) programs are widespread in corporate America, but there’s a problem: They’re often ineffective at actually creating better environments for employees. These programs allow companies to check the D&I box, but they fail at their most basic objective of changing people’s behaviors to be more inclusive.

To create a future with effective D&I training, we need to rethink and rebuild programs from the ground up, starting with the motivations behind them.

However, if managed inappropriately, these tough conversations can quickly destroy workplace relationships and cause team members to become disgruntled and dissatisfied with their job.

One of the keys to managing difficult conversations is the self-awareness of our reactions

This month, please take time to answer these 2 questions:

 
  • How do you deal with conflicts and disagreements?
  • How can you respond in a more productive way?”
