Patterns ( DVD Series)

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

Sexual harassment at work is more than a legal issue. It is fundamentally a behavioral problem. PATTERNS takes on the behavioral challenge, arming employees and managers with the information they need to prevent sexual harassment and the tools that will help them to respond when incidents occur.

Through a series of short dramatizations this series describes common patterns of illegal or inappropriate behavior at work and how best to respond. We explore the habitual harasser, the smitten harasser, the bully and the jilted harasser. We also examine problematic management responses to harassment incidents, including the ostrich, the chameleon, the wounded tiger and the mother hen. Lawyers and HR professionals review each situation and present positive alternatives.

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. Each program includes a comprehensive facilitation guide and reproducible handouts as well as optional PowerPoint slides at no additional cost. Series Objectives This new 3-program series, PATTERNS, is intended to explore the behavioral side of sexual harassment, arming employees and managers with the tools they need to effectively prevent incidents in the first place, and to respond appropriately when they either feel harassed or are aware of harassment occurring.

Program 1, Preventing Sexual Harassment (26 minutes), looks at four common patterns of inappropriate behavior – the habitual harasser, the smitten harasser, the bully and the jilted harasser. How we respond to harassment will be most effective when we recognize why the behavior is occurring. This program arms employees with information and insights to help them determine the best way to get the behavior to stop. A series of dramatizations bring each pattern to life. Attorneys, human resource professionals and a troupe of exceptional actors take us through the legal, psychological, cultural and moral issues.

Program 2, Responding to Sexual Harassment (26 minutes), is an extension of the first program in both style and content, and we recommend that managers view both parts of the series. Program 2 examines the legal liability issues and questions of personal responsibility that managers and supervisors must face. Using dramatizations, we explore different patterns of how managers often respond to sexual harassment incidents, including the ostrich, the chameleon, the wounded tiger and the mother hen and present more effective alternatives. Finally we discuss how incidents should be investigated and best resolved.

Program 3, Rights & Responsibilities (10 minutes), is a brief introduction to the issue of sexual harassment prevention intended for new employees. This orientation program describes what sexual harassment is, how it is damaging to the person being harassed, the harasser, the workgroup and the organization, and what an employees rights and responsibilities are in this area.

    Pigeon-Holed in The Land of Penguins -DVD

    Best-Seller!

    Free Online Preview

    This animated program tackles the tough subject of stereotyping in a delightful way by looking at some different "birds" in the workplace. It makes us do some soul-searching about the casual way we limit ourselves and others through stereotyping.

    We "pigeon-hole" others when we overlook their unique abilities, talents, personalities, and backgrounds. We do it to ourselves, too - when we impose limits and cheat ourselves of new experiences, challenging opportunities, and the fulfillment of our undeveloped potential.

    Though animated, this training tool is no flight of fancy. It's a critical component of training in today's changing workplace. Workgroups, committees, and executive teams will benefit from this program, as will any group interested in mobilizing the talents of all its members.

    PigeonHoled in the Land of Penguins will help team members recognize pigeon-holing, understand its high cost, and learn how to change the pattern. By tapping into the full creativity of everyone on a team, we open ourselves up to significant breakthroughs in innovation, productivity and team effectiveness.

    Participants will learn:

    • why pigeonhole-ing is so common
    • the consequences and high cost of pigeon-holing themselves and others
    • how to free people from pigeon-holes, allowing them greater freedom to create and contribute

Parker in the best-selling Parker Team-Player Survey, this film shows in detail the four primary team-member styles in action -- the contributor, the collaborator, the communicator and the challenger. The object is to make the most of each team player's unique perspective. To accomplish this goal, team players must learn to identify their own style and the style of other team members, avoid carrying their style too far, learn to acknowledge the value of others' styles, use the appropriate style to maximum team advantage, and learn to switch their style when it suits the needs of the team.

    Participants will be able to identify:

    • Four distinct team-player styles and recognize how each style contributes to a team and can potentially hinder a team
    • Five strategies for becoming a better team player and maximizing the team's effectiveness

    You Be the Judge II - DVD

    Free Online Preview

    Updated best-seller that will teach you legal interviewing skills to avoid a discrimination lawsuit!

    For Your Business Issues On Hiring, Legal Issues, Personnel Staffing, Recruiting, Retention, Selection Interviewing, Turnover

    How-To Training Points:

    • How to ask legal interview questions
    • How to take objective, job-related notes that won’t get you into legal trouble
    • How to avoid discrimination during the interviewing process
    • How to hire on the basis of job-related issues only
    • How to avoid questions of age, race, sex, religion and national origin
    • How to use a structured interview plan

    Managers within your organization may well understand the importance of avoiding obvious discriminatory interview questions based on age, race, sex, religion and national origin. But, what if a manager asks a discriminatory question— unintentionally?

    The updated training program You Be the Judge II provides managers with expert advice about why they must be aware of their legal limitations before conducting a job interview. This includes knowing which questions are legal and illegal, and following a structured interview plan that directly relates to the job requirements. In addition, by avoiding spontaneous comments or questions that aren’t included in the interview plan, managers are less likely to let the interview steer off track to the job applicant’s personal life. In short, managers will walk away from this video knowing the important rule of thumb: if the interview question does not relate to the job, don’t ask it!

    Viewers will learn how interviewing questions concerning age, race and religion can be legally rephrased to ask specific questions about job related issues.

    Click 'n Train Spanish/English Edition - New Employee Safety Orientation PowerPoint

    Safety orientation training is crucial for all new employees, not only for their own safety but also for that of co-workers. New workers have much to learn when they begin a new job, not all of which is safety related. Their other orientation materials may, in fact, distract them from safety concerns in such a way that they put themselves and their co-workers at risk.

    How to Lose Customers Without Really Trying - DVD

    Produced - 1989Free Preview

    Featuring Johne Cleese

    This program clearly demonstrates that the same guidelines for keeping customers satisfied apply in different situations, from sales to service to a retail checkout or reception desk.

    Customers can be trying; not all customers are pleasant. It's easy to put customers off; just be aggressive, or defensive. But it is vital to treat them all as personal guests, making them welcome and indulging their whims.

    In various realistic scenarios, staff resort to attacking behavior - by being patronizing or superior - or defensive behavior, where they ignore the customer altogether or fail to accept responsibility. The humorous sketches lay the foundations for customer care and provide a concrete set of behavioral rules to make customers happy and keep coming back.

    They provide a memorable demonstration of the do's and don'ts of customer care, which include finding a real need behind a request, agreeing a solution with a customer, and seeing things through to a successful conclusion.

    The benefits

    • Suitable for front-line staff in any organization
    • Humorous scenarios based upon real life
    • Key learning points suitable for role play or discussion
    • Rules are valid for any customer care exercise

    A Video Arts production featuring Dawn French, Jennifer Saunders, Stephen Fry, Hugh Laurie and John Cleese. Produced in 1998
