Interactive Workshop: How to Lead Civil Conversations at Work that Build Trust & Foster Inclusivity
This will be an in-person only event and will not be livestreamed.
In today’s workplaces, incivility is on the rise, negatively impacting productivity, job satisfaction, and overall business performance. Despite the critical influence managers have on workplace dynamics, recent SHRM research indicates that only 25% of U.S. workers feel their managers effectively address acts of incivility.
How can we equip leaders to cultivate a culture of civility and inclusivity?
Join us for an empowering interactive session where HR leaders will learn strategies to foster a more civil and inclusive workplace. Led by Jennifer Dulski, Founder & CEO of Rising Team and Stanford Business School faculty member, this workshop is designed to equip leaders at all levels—from executives to frontline managers—with the skills needed to promote civility.
Engage in a hands-on activity to practice essential civility skills, and join SHRM’s initiative to ignite 1 million civil conversations for positive change. Gain access to a free, web-based tool that can help leaders within your organization facilitate meaningful and civil discussions with their teams.
