Written by Laura Kriska

Narrated by Jill Blackwood

Discover how this leader-focused approach to understanding, managing, and maximizing organizational diversity and inclusion can increase employee retention and productivity.

Workplace misunderstandings lead to lost revenue, lost time, and increased legal risk, thus your success in the marketplace will depend on our ability to collaborate across difference. Yet, inevitably, Us versus Them gaps disrupt workplace efficiency.

In The Business of WE, cross-cultural consultant and diversity expert Laura Kriska will:

• Provide a practical roadmap for creating trust with others who are culturally different from yourself
• Help you create a WE mindset throughout your organization, bringing teams together into cohesive units.
• Walk you through the steps in fostering a workplace that is inclusive and respectful of all employees—one of the most critical, yet most widely mismanaged keys to success.

 

Stakeholders are demanding real change, and nothing less than comprehensive solutions that lead to meaningful and lasting solutions will suffice.

The Business of WE arrives just in time to help you stop Us versus Them gaps before they start and foster authentic connections across race, ethnicity, religion, age, and any other factor of identity to exponentially strengthen your entire organization.
