Free Online Preview

This program is a 2 DVD set that includes the following programs:

Harassment & Diversity: Respecting Differences — Manager Version(20 minutes)
As a manager, you have a responsibility to keep your workplace free of any form of harassment. In this popular program, an office “comedian” uses his coworkers’ race, religion, and age as the basis of snide comments that no one else finds particularly funny. An emphasis is placed on the various types of harassment—other than sexual harassment—that can violate company policy. Learn how to investigate when discrimination occurs, and how to protect the rights of all involved.

Harassment & Diversity: Respecting Differences — Employee Version(16 minutes)
Your employees need to know that they are just as responsible for maintaining a harassment-free office as you are. Things like inappropriate pictures, jokes, emails, gestures, and touching can create a hostile environment where protected characteristics become targets. Get employees to see that certain behaviors can be interpreted as offensive. Once they know exactly what will and will not be tolerated, everyone can work together to ensure that your diverse workplace operates on a level of respect and understanding.

Ouch! Your Silence Hurts - DVD

Produced - 2009

Ouch! Your Silence Hurts challenges viewers by asking, "How will you personally respond next time you witness somebody being treated with disrespect? You have a choice: Passive Bystander or Pro-active Ally." In a powerful and compelling way, this 9-minute video motivates bystanders to use their voice to speak up for respect on behalf of someone else.

Ouch! Your Silence Hurts will continue the conversation that OUCH! That Stereotype Hurts started. Ouch! Your Silence Hurts goes more deeply into the impact of the silent bystander.

Here's a few of our first reviews:
"Quadruple the impact of OUCH!"
"Hits you at a GUT level!"
"I felt the stories of this video."

"I have one word, FABULOUS!!! This video gives real, gut-wrenching examples of individuals and situations. Most mportant, it challenges people and gives them the idea that they have the ability to confront stereotypes by showing them how. Ouch! will be so helpful because most people want to do something but don’t know what or how."

Managing Communication in a Multicultural World- DVD

Everyone who speaks has an accent. The issue is how far you stray from the standard language of your region or occupation. The subtle but compelling conclusions people reach about you, based on the way you speak, result in profound economic consequences both for yourself and for your organization. Increased awareness of the evolution and importance of language helps you understand the impressions you form of others. Using American English as an example, Dr. Baugh emphasizes the need to build tolerance of variations in dialect and language use. $99.99 [Add to Cart]

Diversity and Cultural Awareness Facilitator's Guide Kit

The Diversity and Cultural Awareness Profile will help individuals understand how much awareness and commitment exists towards the diversity of individuals and different backgrounds in their organization.


More About the Diagnostic Assessments

When individuals or organizations face significant situations or challenges, one of the first priorities is to understand the issues involved and to work out what needs to be done. In many cases, we do not need any formal assistance to help this process and can think our way through the steps that seem to be most appropriate. However, on occasion the issues or the problems may not be entirely clear and a structured approach can help considerably.

To meet this need, here is a simple and easy-to-use but comprehensive diagnostic assessment profiles to help people understand their skills or the situations they face more effectively. HRD Press’ diagnostic assessments fall into three categories:

  1. Assessments that measure the individual are concerned with competency. These profiles provide participants with an inventory of their relative skills in subcategories within each topic.
  2. Assessments that measure the team’s or organization’s performance as a whole (usually relative to the individual’s perception of his or her own performance or level of competence).
  3. Assessments that measure a particular task or situation in which the style that is adopted or utilized by the individual or by others is important to understand.

All of these assessments are described in detail on the subsequent pages. In most cases, assessments have comprehensive facilitator guides to explain the underlying structure of the profile and to help facilitators to provide structured feedback. Person and organization assessments also have detailed coaching guides which provide practical “how to” tips on each question in the relevant profile.

Diversity Challenges: What Would You Do? - DVD

new.gif

Produced - 2007

Free Online Preview

Defining diversity and understanding how to navigate through a diverse workforce are two very different things. It is one thing to understand what diversity is, but it's another to hire and manage the human complexities of a diverse workforce.

In talking about diversity, we not only focus on the visible examples such as race, age, gender, and national origin, but also on not-so-visible examples such as personality style, style of interaction, lifestyle situations, education, work function, etc. It is the identification, acceptance and understanding of those differences and similarities that allow individuals to become aware of and fully use their talents and abilities to make unique contributions to workgroups and organizations.

Whether your organization already started a diversity initiative or you're just beginning to look at the effect diversity has on your productivity, this program is designed to give your organization a chance to discuss some real issues affecting your workforce.

By the end of this program, participants will be able to:

  • Define key terms: diversity, culture and cultural archives
  • Identify their personal cultural archives
  • Examine their personal archives and how they affect communication and workplace relationships
  • Recognize how differing cultural archives affect communication, relationships and ultimately productivity in the workplace.

Program includes: 16 minute DVD, Facilitator's Guide and PowerPoint Presentation.

Ouch! That Stereotype Hurts - DVD

new.gif

Produced - 2007

Just one person speaking up can inspire others to do the same.

Free Online Preview

What do you do if someone you care about is the target of demeaning stereotypes? What if you are being demeaned or stereotyped? How often do you speak up on behalf of respect? This new program, based on the book by Leslie Aguilar, can be used for training on Diversity & Inclusion, Communication, Teamwork and Leadership.

Why is OUCH! important?

Staying silent in the face of demeaning comments, stereotypes or bias allows these attitudes and behaviors to thrive. This undermines our ability to create an inclusive workplace where all employees are welcomed, treated with respect and able to do their best work. Yet, most employees and leaders who want to speak up don't know how. So, we say nothing.

What Does OUCH! do?

In a unique and powerful way, viewers will experience the impact of stereotypical comments, explore why people don't speak up against stereotypes and other biased behaviors, and learn six techniques for speaking up without blame or guilt.

OUCH! Learning Objectives:

  • Understand the impact of stereotypes and biased statements, even when casually said.
  • Identify the most common reasons people sit silent in the face of bias and stereotypes.
  • Enhance skills for speaking up against stereotypes without blame or guilt.

Program includes: 12 minute DVD or VHS video, Speaking Up Activity 5 min., OUCH! That Stereotype Hurts with vignettes 13 min., CD-ROM with Leader's Guide, Powerpoint presentation, 1 OUCH! book and 10 OUCH! reminder cards

Drop By Drop - Subtle Discrimination - DVD

Free Online Preview

Who said you shouldn’t sweat the small stuff? What if those small things undermined morale and reduced productivity? This diversity program, Drop by Drop, demonstrates how the small slights, subtle discriminations and tiny injustices can add up to big problems in your workplace! These little negative gestures are called “micro-inequities” and they occur in organizations every day. These small communications of disrespect, prejudice and inequality aren’t overt, but they can be incredibly destructive. A poison in the workplace that isn’t delivered in a bucket, but takes its toll drop by drop.

The program opens with an unhappy ending – the resignation of a frustrated employee. We then explore the workplace responsible for creating this situation. The program’s host engages and challenges the viewer with his strange perspective on our insensitive behaviors. He walks us through several examples of micro-inequities that could easily be avoided and then shares the key concepts for creating an inclusive and productive work environment: Put a stop to the disrespectful little “paper cuts” co-workers unknowingly inflict upon each other. Raise awareness and emphasize the importance of maintaining a thoughtful and respectful workplace with Drop by Drop.

Key Learning Points:

  • CONSIDER: Listen, empathize, and follow the “platinum rule” by treating others as they’d like to be treated.
  • RESPECT: Show regard for all races, religions, cultures and ages and value the talents each person brings to the workplace.
  • LEARN: Be open to information about different cultures, customs and perspectives of your co-workers. Learn to communicate with kindness and clarity.

Includes: A 19 minute DVD (English and Spanish versions – many also include Portuguese), comprehensive leader’s guide, PowerPoint Presentation on CD-ROM and Drop by Drop Handbook
