 We all come from diverse backgrounds and we all view things from our own vantage point. Just because people do things differently doesn't mean they're wrong. They may just be looking at things in a totally different way. In the DVD training program "How to Deal with Cultural Diversity in the Work Place" you will learn to see the value of these differences in people and learn to put cultural diversity to work to benefit you and your organization.

 This program gives managers the skills of persuasion, vital in running meetings or trying to influence others. Persuasion is an art that must be learned if the road to agreement is not to be strewn with acrimony or conflict. It's not about being domineering or dismissive, but following a three-stage approach that accounts for everybody's needs: listening actively, explaining your own feelings, and inviting other ideas and building on them. Then agreement follows naturally. The benefits

 This is a provocative video program that examines the role that nonverbal messages play in our lives at work. We learn that ignoring nonverbal language can have costly consequences. As we see in the training program, it is especially troublesome when we send or receive mixed messages -- when the words say one thing and the facial expressions, tone of voice, and body language say something else. Confused messages greatly impair our ability to communicate effectively. They have an adverse impact on morale, performance and productivity. Fortunately, however, we can all improve our abilities in this area. Nonverbal language is something we cannot afford to ignore. It is a powerful and fascinating aspect of communication. This video offers concrete guidance in becoming more alert to this "silent language." Viewers will learn:

To enable managers to employ criticism as a means of preventing the recurrence of mistakes and improving staff performance. Nobody enjoys being criticized, which is why few managers relish the prospect of criticizing their staff-yet is has to be done. Everyone makes mistakes, but no-one can be allowed to go on making the same mistake-and people shouldn’t have to wait until an appraisal to discover they have done something wrong. The program is set in the offices of a district council, where an oversight in preparing for a meeting leads to the rejection of a sensitive planning application. The planning officer concerned shrinks from confronting an otherwise efficient assistant until a stern memo from the chief executive forces a rethink. But rather than establishing what had happened and taking action to put it right, the officer makes a series of clumsy attempts to discipline the assistant-including a telling off in front of junior colleagues, failing to agree what had gone wrong and criticizing them personally rather than what they had done. Learning how to handle the situation correctly means understanding how the problem arose, and the assistant is able to suggest a means of avoiding such mistakes in the future. Features and applications:

Through a series of short dramatizations this unique series explores the rules and techniques that distinguish a Dialogue from other forms of communication, such as debate or negotiation. The series examines how we can surface the often unspoken assumptions, in ourselves and in others, that can stand in the way of effective organizational communication. In so doing we build mutual trust and respect. Each program in the series can stand alone and may be licensed separately. There are volume discounts if you license the entire series or multiple copies of any program. Program Contents: Communicating in a Diverse World. Overview. What is dialogue - contrasting debate and dialogue. Initiating Dialogue - how to do it, where to do it. The skills of Dialogue - Suspension (of judgment, decision making and status); Listening (with empathy, for understanding, showing you care); Discovery (uncovering and sharing hidden assumptions in yourself and others). Includes a dramatization of how Dialogue helps us communicate across job functions, helping improve relations between people at different levels within the organization as well as between different departments or areas of expertise. (25 minutes) Dialogue for Cultural Understanding. We apply the skills of dialogue outlined in Program 1 to challenges faced in culturally diverse work environments. We see a dramatization that demonstrates how dialogue can be used to open communication, uncover hidden assumptions, break down stereotypes and facilitate more productive relationships. (24 minutes) Dialogue between Genders. A dramatized dialogue shows us how the skills we learned in Program 1 can be used to overcome misunderstandings, break down gender stereotypes and improve communications between men and women at work. (21 minutes) Dialogue among Generations. We demonstrate how the skills of dialogue can be used to bridge the personal and professional style differences that exist between employees of different ages. We uncover how divergent personal and world views common to people of different generations can lead to misunderstandings and distrust and how dialogue can help overcome age barriers and build more productive workplace relationships.

While the media has focused on the spectacular but very rare instances of lethal workplace violence, the reality in most workplaces is very different. We deal with daily occurrences of hostility, intimidation, harassment and other damaging behavior. The perpetrators are employees, managers and customers. So are the victims. They are us. Unlike the rare, extreme cases, the more common manifestations of workplace violence take a daily toll on most workplaces. The Respectful Workplace is a resource designed to help organizations put an end to this other violence - the destructive conflicts that affect us all. Series Objectives The Respectful Workplace is a 3 part training series designed to help organizations address the behavioral and values issues that can allow conflicts to escalate. The series treats workplace violence as an outgrowth of hostility, harassment, bullying and intimidation which has not been effectively dealt with and arms employees and managers with the tools they will need to ensure respectful workplace relations. Program Contents:
Each program in The Respectful Workplace series includes several dramatizations designed to help focus and stimulate discussion. There are 10 of these scenes. Support Materials The Respectful Workplace series comes with a comprehensive Facilitator's Guide. Handout pages are incorporated in the guide.
