Bridge the Gap, Overcome the Gulf:
Developing Effective Supervision Strategies for Diverse Environments

Audience: Supervisors, Any Industry

In this profoundly meaningful seminar, supervisors work together to better understand the barriers that exist to their effective supervision of a diverse staff. Using personal experiences and critical analysis strategies, this seminar unleashes untapped potential in relationships between supervisors and their employees thereby increasing both productivity and job satisfaction.

This seminar addresses the supervising needs of professionals in non-profit, academic, for-profit, and public sector environments. The format of this seminar goes beyond standard diversity training to address substantive and practical aspects of providing effective supervision in cross-cultural work environments.

The discussion in this workshop takes a creative and engaging approach that steps away from politeness and embraces frank, honest consideration of the real problems that arise in supervising people who are different from us. As the diversity of the workforce and workplace increase there is greater need for culturally competent managers. This seminar builds that competence.
