One-on-One Sensitivity Training that Works

“We partnered with LSA Global to help us invest in our people in the areas of performance coaching, diversity, one-on-one sensitivity training, and inclusion.

They exceeded my expectations from a speed, quality, and value standpoint.

I would recommend LSA Global to anyone looking for a true business partner.”

Description
People who have been accused of harassment or discrimination often are required by their companies (or a court) to attend a sensitivity training course.

Unfortunately, in a classroom or online setting, they may be reluctant to ask questions directly related to their situations. And if they’re hostile, they may say nothing, fade into the background, disrupt the group, or share inappropriate and highly sensitive information.

We offer proven one-on-one sensitivity training for these employees.

An attorney will discuss with your management and Human Resources the specific allegation, the results of your investigation, and your desired outcomes.

The initial session with the individual usually lasts for three hours. Sometimes we have multiple meetings with the same individuals with targeted homework between each session.

The participant will receive a comprehensive reference guide that can be used going forward.

After the one-on-one sensitivity training session, management and HR will receive a verbal and/or written report on the outcome. We will make recommendations if we believe more in-depth counseling is required.

This one-on-one sensitivity training program has been successful in reducing hostility in people accused of harassment and discrimination, increasing their understanding of the legal parameters in which the company must act, and obtaining their buy-in to the process. Our clients report that participants are grateful for this practical and meaningful approach.
