Workshop description:
Conversations around diversity have us walking on eggshells. This program offers practical ways to quickly transform the quality and effectiveness of our interactions. Have you ever found yourself saying, "Some of my best friends are..." or "I don't think of you as..."? We make statements intended to be supportive or complimentary, but end up being problematic. Participants will gain knowledge of communication traps, how to avoid them and what tools to use in their place.
Co-sponsored by Thayer School of Engineering; Dartmouth Information, Technology, & Consulting; the Office of Institutional Diversity and Equity; the Office of the Executive Vice President; Tuck School of Business; and the Office of Human Resources.
