Diversity Works

Looking for an icebreaker to begin your diversity training? Consider starting with a diversity game such as Diversity Works. To play, stations are set up around the room, with each station featuring a different learning activity. Players can choose whatever station they’d like to participate in.

Depending on the activity at the station, participants will work individually, in pairs, or in groups to complete the reflective and problem-solving tasks. Although the tasks are different at each station, they all focus on three primary learning objectives pertaining to diversity: communication, understanding self, and understanding others.

When everyone is finished, the group will come together to discuss what they’ve learned and participate in a final diversity and inclusion board game. Diversity Works can be played with up to 25 people, making this game a great way to get your entire team in the mindset to learn about this important topic.

Appreciating Diversity

Appreciating Diversity

It’s easy to understand what diversity is. But understanding diversity is much different than actually appreciating diversity. Appreciation comes with authentic respect that’s apparent in an individual’s feelings and actions. When there’s a lack of appreciation in the workplace, it can lead to some serious consequences. For instance, it can severely impact employee morale, productivity, and engagement. It can even negatively affect a company’s employee retention rate.

The Appreciating Diversity course from HRDQ is designed to foster an environment that promotes positive and inclusive interactions between diverse individuals. By creating a workplace that recognizes individuals’ worth, you’ll find that fundamental attribution errors and micro-inequalities are dispelled. The program will help participants exercise flexible thinking and understand how people view differences in varying ways.

Cross-Cultural Adaptability Inventory

Cross-Cultural Adaptability Inventory

The first step towards becoming more culturally competent is bringing awareness to our own cultural identities. With the Cross-Cultural Adaptability Inventory, participants will learn the strengths and weaknesses in four skill areas that are fundamental for effective cross-cultural communication: emotional resilience, flexibility/openness, perceptual acuity, and personal autonomy. Then, using their “Passport to Anywhere,” participants will learn how to improve their interactions with other cultures. A powerful and insightful training experience, this program is designed to spark a thorough self-assessment and bring attention to cultural expectations and perceptions.

As workplaces continue to become more diverse, it’s more important than ever to teach your team how to have positive and smooth interactions with those of differing cultures. The HRDQ Cultural Competency training program is perfect for showing participants how to effectively communicate with other groups and individuals.

The program begins by teaching employees to acknowledge both the similarities and differences between their cultural identities. By the end of the training, your team should be able to speak and act in a manner that affirms culturally diverse employees. If you’re looking to better unite your team and cultivate positive discourse, it’s imperative to increase your employees’ cultural understanding.

Understanding Generational Differences

Understanding Generational Differences

Members of different generations have fundamentally different beliefs, values, and experiences. With the current workforce being made up of a total of five generations of employees, bridging any age gaps is crucial for preventing conflict between individuals. To do this, consider implementing our Understanding Generational Differences diversity training program.

The key to alleviating tension between those of differing generations is identifying the inherent challenges they face when working with one another. After being made aware of these challenges, the program will then help participants gain a better understanding of how the unique experiences of those in different generations affect their expectations and views of the workplace. Learning more about each other and respecting differences is what fosters positive communication among generationally diverse team members.
