SPEAKER CANCELLATION: The Weird Workplace: Turning Cognitive Diversity into Real Cognitive Inclusion
Chicago Marriott Downtown Magnificent Mile - 6th Floor, North Western/Ohio State
Tuesday 10/23/2012 10:15 AM - 11:30 AM
Workplace Application:
You will learn how to transform a commitment to cognitive diversity into a culture of cognitive inclusion.
When it comes to cognitive diversity, business leaders often talk a good game. Few, however, are equipped to successfully manage teams of people who “think different,” and the business case for cognitive diversity rarely addresses fears raised by workplace nonconformity. In this session, we will debunk myths surrounding non-conformers, learn to recognize natural barriers to cognitive inclusion and develop strategies to revive creativity, inspire innovation and attract the kind of talent your future needs.
Presenter:
Allyson Robinson,
associate director of Diversity,
Human Rights Campaign
