While many professionals try their best to keep their
personal and work lives separate, an industry commitment
to discussing and addressing difficult issues is far too
important to ignore.
When it comes to the the topic of
discrimination and race, both inside and
outside of the workplace, it's critical to enable
a dialogue, as each person has their own
experiences and feelings that ultimately shape
how they view the world and react to certain
situations.
While these conversations are difficult,
if your organization hasn't created an open
dialogue culture, take a moment to recognize
where you are, take responsibility for where
you are, and take the proper steps to become
the organization you want to be. Let's discuss
how to have the important but difficult
conversations that allow employees to share
their experiences and perspectives while also
educating others to ensure the workplace is a
safe space for all.
