ABOUT OUR SPEAKER:
Scott Warrick was a presenter at SHRM’s 2006 and 2003 National Diversity Conferences. Scott travels the country presenting his “Intolerance of Intolerance: Skill-based Tolerance Program.” Scott’s clients include The Gap, Skyline Chili, The Ohio Supreme Court, Honeywell, etc. Scott will examine the source of bigotry and what we can do about it in our profession in his unique “rubber hits the road,” humorous approach.
ABOUT OUR LUNCH PROGRAMS:
Intolerance of Tolerance: Why do I have an Accent?
- Does most of our bigotry lie in our subconscious . . . waiting to come out?
- How can you spot bigotry instantly . . . so you or your employees do not pull a “Mel Gibson” or a “Kramer”?
- Why do some of the smartest people in our society say the most stupid things?
- Emotional Intelligence and why our brain structure may predispose us towards bigotry.
- Can you “de-program” yourself . . . and what will happen to your career if you don’t?
ABOUT OUR AFTERNOON SEMINAR:
Intolerance of Intolerance: Management v. Employees
Scott’s skill-based tolerance program takes a practical and in-depth look at tolerance in today’s work environment and why it is so critical to any organization’s success. You will learn:
- What is the difference between a skill-based and culturally-based diversity/tolerance program . . . and why do culturally based programs fail?
- What are the four skills that are necessary for any diversity/tolerance program to succeed?
- What style of communication is most effective in creating a more tolerant workplace?
- What is the difference between “real differences” and “stereotypes”?
- Why is “emotional intelligence” a vital part of any tolerance program?
