M.E.E.T. on Common Ground:
- Make time to discuss
- Explore differences
- Encourage respect
- Take responsibility

This straightforward video provides practical skills that all of your employees can use to create a respectful and inclusive workplace. Unlike many programs that focus on high-level "strategic" theories concerning diversity and inclusion management, M.E.E.T. on Common Ground is a "ground-zero" tactical approach. By focusing on understanding and communication, this program will teach your employees how to recognize and respond to any situation professionally and with respect.. The program introduces an easy-to-grasp four-step process that is demonstrated in six timely realistic vignettes. Ultimately, your employees will learn how to "M.E.E.T." on common ground.

Testimonials:

Historically, managers and supervisors spent a considerable amount of time handling problems related to diversity.  Now, thanks to the skills gained from VisionPoint diversity training, our managers and supervisors are able to better focus their efforts on delivering bottom line results.
-Cleo Ball, Retail Training Manager, Save-A-Lot Food Stores, Inc.

I especially like M.E.E.T. The issues addressed are cutting edge, the "skits" are well-acted, the moderator is low-key and effective, and the graphic technology is impressive.
-Gary Looper, Partner, Ann McGee-Cooper & Associates

[On programs featuring F.A.I.R. and M.E.E.T.] I’ve been in the EEO/Affirmative Action/Diversity field for 23 years and have never seen more realistic, more thought-provoking videos on diversity. The scenarios are varied and illustrate diversity dimensions that are not often included in diversity videos. This goes way beyond the race and gender issues.
-Judy Hirsch, Diversity Consultant, Reynolds & Reynolds
