TrainingBriefs® I Had to Say Something!

Biases and stereotypes can impact us in many ways... including making assumptions about others that are unfounded and can cause unintended consequences. It's important to remember, even the little things we say in casual conversation can grow into big things if not addressed.

We can help one another pay attention to the potential impact of our words, by discussing the impacts of our statements. Not speaking up can result in misunderstandings that harm relationships with co-workers and customers.
