I don’t think it’s unrealistic to say that we’re seeing polarization in society. And because we are, it’s not unrealistic to think it will have an impact on our work environment.
During this year’s Society for Human Resource Management (SHRM) annual conference, I had the chance to hear Bernadette Jones, SHRM-SCP, founder and CEO of Visionova HR Consulting located in San Francisco, California talk about “Peacekeeping in Polarizing Times”. I thought the session was timely.
Jones outlined four steps that human resources professionals should consider when it comes to dealing with polarizing conversations and behaviors at work.
