Summary

Microaggressions are small comments that create emotional paper cuts. Individually, they are irritating, sometimes painful, but recoverable. Imagine being on the receiving end of those paper cuts frequently, sometimes daily, due to what others may feel are benign comments or even compliments. The cumulative effect of microaggressions is hardly micro in impact. They undermine relationships, reduce productivity and derail intentional efforts to improve organizational climate. This brief session will coach attendees how to recognize microaggressive behaviors and offer strategies on how to respond to them and avoid them in the future.
