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.

Explore the problems bedeviling the ethics-building efforts of organizations through this trilogy of programs from Dr. Marianne Jennings. The courses examine pressing topics, including the flaws of the gray-area myth, a lack of understanding why ethics matters, the culture of silence and fear of retaliation, and the pressures that compromise ethical decision-making.

Using eye-opening stories and real-life examples, the programs provide strategies that can help you address, if not resolve these issues. Ethics Is A Competitive Advantage builds a strong case for why ethics matters and explains why the gray-area myth is detrimental to business; Speaking Up Without Fear explains how you can get around the culture of silence and draw out the issues in other ways; Ethical Leadership: Tone at all Levels explores how people can handle the pressure and how every employee sets the tone of an organization's ethical culture in word and deed.

Dr. Stephen Covey, founder and chair of the Covey Leadership Center and author of The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People, once again brings us an inspirational set of leadership training programs. The series breaks new ground, shifting the paradigm in ways that will surprise even the most seasoned leader. For instance:

A Grander Goal takes a striking look at character, bringing to bear that which is at once the simplest and most complex: love and forgiveness. It's a story of how one man's unselfish character is providing direction for young unemployed men in Uganda. (11 minutes)

Journey to Discovery tells the tale of a successful writer at a crossroads, a man questioning his life from a personal and professional perspective. Unable to write, he wanders the streets and finds the character he needs to once again take pen in hand. This heartwarming story (and its surprise ending!) will help your leaders rediscover the passion from which breakthroughs and innovations arise.(14 minutes)

A Better Way offers a new approach to the concept of 'win-win.' It's an intriguing look at three South African retailers, each facing unique challenges to one common concern: increasing profitability. They find increased profits - and more - with customers, vendors and employees by simply shifting from an attitude of competition to one of cooperation. (15 minutes)

Law of the Harvest provides an enlightening look at the true meaning of 'reaping what you sow.' Viewers meet a potato farmer whose story exemplifies that the technology and quick fixes many of us have come to rely on are no substitute for patience, perseverance and preparation(7 minutes).

Throughout this series the lesson is clear: there is plenty in this world for everyone if we work with integrity, respect and cooperation. Each is an excellent stand-alone program; used together, they comprise a comprehensive multi-session training program.

Every organization has a different kind of performance review system. Even so, the reaction to reviews is often the same - one of horror. Performance review sets out to encourage individuals to think about reviews in a new way, so they stop dreading them and start seeing them in a more positive light.

Performance review comes in two distinct parts - one for the manager and one for the appraisee. Unless both sides know what to expect, and how to get the most from the meeting, it will always fall short of the mark. Both sides have an equally crucial role to play.

Part one: Every manager's nightmare (length 30 minutes) is aimed specifically at managers. They know the importance of an employee's performance review, but this rarely makes having to do them any less painful. In fact, because they often end up being emotionally charged, they are seen more as 'excruciating' than 'crucial'.

To overcome this, and to show that we understand their apprehension, we identify six manager's 'nightmares': Defensive Dennis; Weepy Wendy; Silent Steve; Non-stick Nigel; Bolshy Becky and Bored Betty. We show these classic difficult characters in action and provide simple and effective strategies for getting them on-side. Through these characters we are able to demonstrate key review techniques managers can develop. By making them less confrontational and more productive managers will be able to fearlessly deal with all performance reviews.

Part two: Every appraisee's dream (length 20 minutes) is aimed at staff whose review is coming up shortly. This section really shows the positive side of performance reviews and gives a full and vivid illustration of just how well they can go when they're handled properly by both parties. It gives the appraisee something to aim for during their own review, but is also very useful for managers - showing them what can be achieved from a successful review.

We also introduce another new character - Tracy. Like many employees she feels her annual performance review is a complete waste of time. We see her learn the secrets of preparation, based on a new three-part structure to help her thinking process:

• The past: what's gone well over the last year, and what hasn't
• The present: any current issues about the job she's doing
• The future: where she wants to go and what experience or training she will need to get there.

Key Learning Points:

• Explores essential interviewing skills
• Integral part of any management skills program
• 2-part program suitable for all managers and appraisees
• Engaging and amusing drama to reinforce the messages
• Memorable characters show different behaviors and techniques
• Promotes use of appropriate behavioral skills
• Over 50 minutes of training

Includes: Two DVDs (30 minute and 20 minute), leader's guides, participant worksheets on disk and PowerPoint slides on disk.

The Training Scenes Library consists of 7 Volumes of training dramatizations addressing a variety of workplace issues.

These program is also available for online training. See details below.

The Training Scenes Library is a flexible, powerful and versatile tool. Each scenario can be plugged into an existing training program to enhance it's effectiveness, can be used as a stand alone unit to focus a discussion around a particular workplace issue, can be part of a series of team deliberations to improve communications and productivity, or can be used by an employee or work team to review training issues already visited.

• Volume 1: Subtle Sexual Harassment Training Scenes is intended to provide trainers, managers and employees with powerful tools that can stimulate discussion and promote behavioral changes around the issue of workplace sexual harassment. By presenting a wide range of sexual harassment incidents, the training scenes can encourage dialogue that will bring issues out into the open where they can be effectively addressed. (9 scenes - 28 minutes)
• Volume 2: Diversity Training Scenes is intended to provide trainers, managers and employees with powerful tools that can stimulate discussion and promote behavioral changes around the issue of diversity in the workplace. The training scenes can encourage dialogue that will bring race, gender, sexual orientation, age, religion, physical ability and other diversity issues out into the open where they can be effectively addressed. (6 scenes - 18 minutes)
• Volume 3: Diffusing Hostility - Customer Service Training Scenes is intended to provide trainers, managers and employees with powerful tools that can stimulate discussion around the complex issues of dealing with hostile customers. The scenes will help customer service personnel develop skills to calm difficult situations, win the customer back into a respectful relationship, identify where organizational procedures negatively impact customer service, provide positive alternatives for angry customers, and know when a hostile customer crosses the line and becomes a safety risk. (4 scenes - 14 minutes )
• Volume 4: Conflict Resolution Training Scenes is intended to provide trainers, managers and employees with a resource to use in developing conflict resolution skills. The scenes will help employees and supervisors diffuse difficult situations, avoid escalation, improve individual and team performance, and know when a hostile interaction crosses the line and becomes a safety issue.
• Volume 5: Coaching and Performance Feedback are emerging as two of the central skills needed by those leading their organizations into the 21st century. In work environments where conditions change quickly - where new technologies, new processes, new products and new partners require that employees continuously learn and adapt, it is essential that we all have ways of measuring how we are doing, of reinforcing successful performance and of correcting where improvement is needed. (60 minutes)
• Volume 6: You Can STOP Harassment Training Scenes is intended to encourage employees, supervisors, team leaders and managers in public and private sector organizations to take responsibility to help end all forms of harassment in their workplaces. (28 minutes)
• Volume 7: PATTERNS - Sexual Harassment Training Scenes is intended to provide trainers, managers and employees with a resource to use in addressing the behavioral issues that lead to sexual harassment at work. These scenes look at common patterns of harassing behavior on the part of employees and managers and common management responses to that behavior.

  PATTERNS - Sexual Harassment Training Scenes consists of 8 dramatizations, most followed by a "rewind" where the scene is reenacted using improved skills resulting in a more positive outcome.
