Won't You Be My Neighbor: Diversity in the Workplace

Using Mr. Rogers’s Neighborhood as a framework, this presentation seeks to increase individuals’ knowledge of diversity and trust in the workplace. Diversity, beyond observable differences, triggers emotional labor on both the individual and team level. Participants will be challenged to think about their own emotional labor, instances in which they rely on surface and deep level acting, and how it might be affecting their professional relationships

Participants will be able to:
-Define diversity and explore how it impacts key concepts such as trust and performance in the workplace 

-Define emotional labor and interpersonal trust as they relate to diversity 

-Define Emotion Regulation Theory and apply it to their own role performance and satisfaction 

-Reflect on personal characteristics that impact individual contributions to and experiences of diversity 

-Explore the impact of interpersonal diversity on workplace performance and satisfaction
