1. Valuing Diversity Principles
The following principles must guide every action and word of people who repesent
Dale Carnegie Training 速.
1. Be sensitive to generalizations (in words or images) that disparage or imply
that all members of a particular race, ethnic, religion, gender, disability, or
age group are the same.
2. Refrain from identifying someone by race, ethnicity, religious affiliation,
gender, disability, or age group unless it is relevant to the point.
3. Be mindful of using vague language that may patronize or offend someone
based on race, ethnicity, religion, gender, disability, life style, or age group.
4. Be aware that some people find the use of certain colors (for example,
black, brown, and yellow) as negative.
5. If it is necessary to refer to race, ethnicity, religion, gender, disability, or age
groups in order to make a point, replace clich辿s with supportive evidence.
6. Be proactive in understanding how to communicate across generations.
7. Be genuinely interested in others and represent all groups fairly in the way
we conduct training.
