Diversity Management Workshop

A colleague of mine attended a Diversity Management workshop delivered by Tanya Kennedy two weeks ago at Legal-Island's training centre and took from it the following five key learning points :

• Jane Elliot’s “A Class divided” is a superb video that shows just how easily people can fall into prejudice and the ugly consequences. See here
• Zappos has some great core values worth examining including :

1. Build Open and Honest Relationships With Communication
2. Embrace and Drive Change
3. Create Fun and A Little Weirdness
4. Be Adventurous, Creative, and Open-Minded
5. Pursue Growth and Learning
6. Deliver WOW Through Service
7. Build a Positive Team and Family Spirit
8. Do More With Less
9. Be Passionate and Determined
10. Be Humble

• No-one is born prejudiced. It’s a learnt process. We can unlearn it.
