Interview: Inclusiveness in the Workplace
Harness the power of this breakthrough book (Jossey-Bass/John Wiley, September, 2008) by authors Michael Gurian and Barbara Annis, who are now also joining forces to develop a keynote (available February, 2008) designed to fundamentally change the way organizations work and build success.
Each of us enters the workplace, not only as an individual, but as a woman or man. Like it or not, our gender-different styles play a major role in how we work together and perform as leaders. The fact is - organizations that truly commit to utilizing the differences between men and women, gain a significant competitive advantage.
Science In Action
This engaging new keynote built on leading-edge gender brain research and more than two decades of in-the-workplace consultation and training, brings the authors' book to life for you, providing insightful, practical approaches to executive and managerial leadership that will have an impact on all levels of your organization.
An approach that blends DVD-based learning with practical tools, anecdotes, and interactive discussion makes this lecture fun and informative, while fostering a new understanding of leadership and the workplace at points of connection between men and women's thinking.
Barbara Annis, the leading corporate gender expert, and author of Same Words, Different Language, teams up with New York Times bestselling author Michael Gurian, a pioneer in the field of applied gender neuro-biology. Their powerhouse presentation provides a balanced, gender-positive approach that leaves participants with a sense of enlightenment around the subject of male/female brain difference.
