OUCH! That Stereotype Hurts
Communicating Respectfully in a Diverse Workplace
The quintessential program on stereotyping.
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.
