Given our extremely polarized sociopolitical climate, conversations about race, religion, and politics are happening every day at work. If these conversations are not handled effectively, they can become divisive, impacting productivity, engagement, retention, teamwork, and even employees’ sense of psychological safety. Learn methods based on the award winning book We Can’t Talk about That at Work: How to Talk about Race, Religion, Politics, and Other Polarizing Topics, co-authored by Mary-Frances Winters and Mareisha N. Winters Reese to create spaces where inclusive conversations are possible that foster reciprocal empathy, deeper understanding of differences and ultimately better working environments for everyone.
