We all have ideas about what is normal and what we interpret as different. From time to time, we catch ourselves putting our fellow human beings into the category of “the others” through stereotypical and prejudiced thinking. Especially in the workplace, where we spend more time than almost anywhere else, prejudices about supposed “others” can turn into devaluation and (unconscious) exclusion of colleagues in the company. A positive and collegial atmosphere that recognizes and values the differences and needs of all is just as important for employees as it is for the company itself. Together, we want to look at how we can tackle this issue and strengthen a solidary and democratic corporate culture, based on your experiences from everyday working life.
In our seminar, we give employees from the chemical and pharmaceutical industry in Schleswig-Holstein the practical opportunity to deal with forms of workplace bullying and discrimination and to be prepared for corresponding situations.
