Creating and Sustaining a Drama-Free Workplace
Today’s workplaces must demonstrate a commitment to creating and sustaining a healthy, inclusive and equitable culture. Organizational leaders, particularly HR leaders, play a key role in reaching this goal. In this session, we will explore innovative ways to create a drama-free and healthy workplace environment. We will also address the litigation-avoidance paradox, how to anticipate and head off drama-producing events, and how to implement lessons learned from a culture of safety to the world of workplace conduct.
Learning Objectives:
- Discover how lessons learned from safety principles can be applied to issues related to workplace strife.
- Learn how focusing on tested and proven methods to increase inclusion, belonging and equity leads to a healthy and drama-free culture at work.
- Learn how to make courageous workplace decisions rather than decisions based on a fear of getting sued.
