Overcoming Personal Barriers to Diversity
Ashgate Publishing, May 2010, Minutes: 19
The TakeAway Training Film Series comprises short, practical training films providing managers, supervisors and staff with techniques, advice and ideas on some of the key areas of their job.
The series which features 'talking head discussion' between psychologists Eve Ash and Peter Quarry, is designed for learning resource centres and management self-development. When the first titles in the series appeared People Management Journal said: '...one of the main selling points is that they firmly place responsibility for learning with the learner...They could be used either as stand-alone distance learning tools or as part of a training session. I am sure that any viewer will be able to take up their basic principles and apply them.'
Many enlightened organisations now see diversity and inclusion programs as more than mere compliance issues - they are ways to increase market share, employee retention and innovation. Psychologist Peter Quarry provides a number of practical strategies that will help the individual change their negative thinking and reactions to people from different backgrounds. This program is a great discussion starter and explores:
- Definitions of ‘diversity’ and ‘inclusion’.
- Reasons why people resist differences.
- Stereotypes - positives and negatives.
- Getting to know people from different backgrounds.
- Overcoming biased perceptions.
- What you can do to make your workplace more inclusive.
