SUMMARY:EMCN: Creating a Culturally Inclusive Workplaces Workshop
DESCRIPTION:You are supervising a recently hired team member. Although the person is performing his assigned tasks well\, you wish he would take more initiative in his role. You feel frustrated that he always waits for your clear direction.\n\n \n\nYour organization is hiring. You found a great candidate for the role in terms of skills and experience\, but you notice that she avoids eye contact with you during the interview process.\n\nYour manager regularly gives you feedback on your work that feels harsh and overly critical. You've begun to feel defensive whenever you enter into a meeting with them. You feel demoralized.\n\nWhen faced with situations like these\, it can be easy to make assumptions about behaviours we observe in others   assumptions that may result in missed opportunities\, escalated team conflict\, ineffective performance management\, or lost resources. Ultimately\, misunderstanding culturally-informed behaviours can negatively impact the success of your business. \n\n \n\nBy 2031\, it is estimated that one in three workers will be born outside of Canada. With increasing diversity\, it is essential to create culturally inclusive workplaces in order to develop high-performing teams.\n\nFor over 40 years\, EMCN has been supporting employers and immigrants in navigating the impacts of cultural differences at work in order to maximize the potential of our diverse workforce in Canada.\n\nJoin EMCN and keynote speaker Mohamad Fakih\, and leading expert on Canadian Workplace Culture Matt Adolphe\, for the Creating Culturally Inclusive Workplaces workshop on September 21. You will benefit from real-world examples\, interactive discussion\, practical tools\, and actionable steps that you can immediately begin implementing to more successfully recruit and retain culturally diverse talent in your organization.
