Bookshelf : A Workforce Diversity Network Featured Reading Resource
Lexicon: The 700 Ideas & Concepts Everyone Should Know
 At its core, diversity is about building relationships that respect an
individual's inherent worth and dignity. At the heart of any relationship
is
communication-be it between employees at work or between a husband and wife.
If you've ever had to say, "I'm sorry. I misunderstood you," then you know

This lexicon is a valuable tool that will help your employees engage in
meaningful dialogue.

It's pocket-sized for convenience. Keep it handy,
write
in it, bend its pages, and bookmark it with sticky notes. Conversation
about
diversity often involves words that are charged with emotion. Not everyone
comes to the table with the same understanding of words, even of the common
terms we use every day. It is absolutely imperative for all of us to speak
with precision and clarity. Only then can there truly be a shared pool of
knowledge, a shared experience that transcends background, education, and upbringing.
