What’s This Even Mean? (from The Future of Work™)
The speed of communication is increasing and changing. This happens at all levels whether it’s face-to-face, online, text, email, video, phone...

What Did I Say? (from The Future of Work™)
During a team meeting, you had an employee or staff member who uses a disrespectful word without realizing it. What do you do? Shaming and blaming can get in the way of our learning... and our relationships. That means we need to know how to recognize, respond, and recover when something we say, hear or observe is offensive or has a harmful impact on others. That’s what inclusion in action means… taking intentional actions to stay connected and support belonging.
