SHRM 2011 Diversity & Inclusion Conference
PowerPoints/Handouts Available

Workplace Application: Learn why addressing religion is essential for success in today’s (and tomorrow’s) working climate, while exploring surprising statistics about religious adherence and immigration.

In today’s multicultural and global workplaces, employees bring multiple identities with them to work, and that includes their religious beliefs and practices. This session addresses the disconnect between what HR managers are reporting and what employees are experiencing by training you to identify your own biases. Learn how to effectively and respectfully address religious diversity with the Tanenbaum Center’s better practices and communication strategies. Examine how current trends, such as immigration, globalization, religious adherence data, and legislation affect relationships between diverse colleagues. Walk away with concrete better practices and communication skills for addressing religious diversity in the workplace.
