Workplace diversity encompasses many differences including protected class characteristics and more. All differences can be chunked into generally shared categories, except for one, personalities. Just as no two fingerprints are identical, neither are any two people's personalities. To ensure not only diversity tolerance but also appreciation, it begins with understanding ourselves better, recognizing the '3+1' general types of people, learning more about all DiSC® personality types, and finally, exploring ways to better relate to others.
Learning Objectives:
- Understand the '3+1' general types of people.
- Recognize DiSC® Personality Styles - self and others.
- Discover key personality similarities and differences.
- Learn tips how to navigate and mediate conflicts.
- Identify and utilize individual's strengths.
