Diversity Management Workshop

I attended a Diversity Management workshop delivered by Tanya Kennedy today at Legal-Island's training centre and took from it the following five key learning points :

Training Centre Northern Ireland
  • Jane Elliot’s “A Class divided” is a superb video that shows just how easily people can fall into prejudice and the ugly consequences. See here
  • Zappos has some great core values worth examining including :

  1. Deliver WOW Through Service
  2. Embrace and Drive Change
  3. Create Fun and A Little Weirdness
  4. Be Adventurous, Creative, and Open-Minded
  5. Pursue Growth and Learning
  6. Build Open and Honest Relationships With Communication
  7. Build a Positive Team and Family Spirit
  8. Do More With Less
  9. Be Passionate and Determined
  10. Be Humble
  • Pret a Manager have simple core values  : passionate about food; passionate about people; passionate about success
  • No-one is born prejudiced. It’s a learnt process. We can unlearn it.
  • Are we all age obsessed? I think we are…
It's hard going sometimes in the employment law field. We still feel we're organising the best employment law seminars around.
