Understanding and Managing Diversity

Workplace Diversity

Learning Technologies, Inc.
Taking advantage of the diversity in your team and company is critical to success in today s world. Our diversity programs focus on appreciating differences and better understanding different cultures. We also explore how to benefit from diversity rather than allowing it to build walls (See Details Below).

Every LTI classroom program is designed to achieve specific results aligned with your immediate business needs. By focusing on skills and concepts, promoting direct application, and creating an environment where participants can practice new strategies, the likelihood of impacting real, positive change, is dramatically improved. Each of our programs is specifically designed to address your unique set of needs, and can incorporate any number of assessments and tools that are necessary for achieving those results.

Classroom programs can range in length from two hours to three days. We can conduct these sessions at your place of business, or at other locations including conference centers, resorts, or other meeting facilities. All programs are customized to suit your specific needs and to ensure that the results:

Address real and recognizable issues.
Fit your organization's culture.
Reinforce other training and management initiatives.

LTI's focus is on actual implementation of new solutions. We believe there are four critical steps in designing programs that result in positive change. These four primary components represent the cornerstones of every LTI program.

Accurate Needs Assessment: what is the issue
Well-Defined Goals & Objectives: where do you want to be
Hands-On Experience: practice and adaptation
Leave With a Plan: what is next

We view ourselves as your business partner. By helping you create a training strategy, and then systematically addressing critical issues, both individuals and teams become better equipped to overcome not only daily, but also long-term challenges.

Our Goal: to become your business partner, providing perspective, support, and solutions.
Our Mission: to design training so specific to YOUR needs that you will use those skills on a daily basis.
Our Purpose: to help you overcome obstacles to success.

Understanding and Managing Diversity
Diversity is everywhere we look. Taking advantage of the diversity in your team and company is critical to success. This program will enable participants to become familiar with the many differences among their peers and in the world around them. They will learn to appreciate and utilize these differences, breaking down the barriers to effective communication. Participants also gain insight into how one s background and biases affect their relationships with others. They also identify ways that this knowledge can be used to improve effectiveness in both the work place and in their personal lives.


Participants will explore:

How Are We Different? How Are We The Same?
Once we understand our differences, we can begin working together and benefit from these differences.

What Influences Our Opinions? Why Are We Different?
Understanding how one s background and biases affect our relationships is one of the keys to acceptance. Participants explore what influences their opinions and openly discuss issues that affect each of us.

What Can We Do To Understand And Value Cultural Differences?
Learning more about the issues affecting diverse groups helps us have an appreciation and understanding of those that are different from us.

What Is Appropriate Behavior?
We are all different, but we all deserve courtesy and respect. Learn to recognize what are appropriate and inappropriate behaviors.

How We Can Benefit From Diversity?
Identifying ways that our diversity can be used to improve our effectiveness both at work and in our personal lives is key. It enables us to move past mere awareness and on to actually applying lessons learned.
