" JP Davis & Associates delivered an intriguing block of diversity training for our organization. The training was specifically designed to have our employees become more aware of their individual perceptions and realize that perception is reality. Participants were able to relate their perceptions to their behavior. This style of training was delivered in a non- threatening environment which allowed for open and honest communication. This was the best eye-opener for self-assessment."

    FUNDAMENTAL PROGRAMS/ Leadership Development

    Just what is leadership? There are probably as many definitions for leadership as there are people who call themselves leaders. If you were to “google” the word leadership, you would get more than 150 million “hits” in a matter of seconds. How in the world would one begin to study and implement effective leadership without knowing exactly what you are looking for? Without effective leadership team morale, employee retention, and business results can all suffer.

     

    At JP Davis and Associates we offer training that will strengthen the foundation of your success through leadership development. We strive at not only developing leaders, but helping produce “Transformational Leaders”. With a clear understanding of their purpose and a passion to execute, these leaders create and recreate our culture and environment through the people they lead. People, purpose, passion.


    Our leadership development training focuses on what we have found to be the     “Seven Secrets of the Transformational Leader.” During this training we explore the following characteristics of leadership: Transforms self first, Makes decisions, Can be trusted, Knows who and what they are, Is willing to take responsibility for others, Takes care of themselves, and Fears only fear itself.

     

    Having strong leaders will be your foundation for success, and as your partner we want to celebrate your success!

    FUNDAMENTAL PROGRAMS/ Diversity Education
    Organizations find themselves at various levels as it relates to the issues of Diversity. No matter where you are in this process, the primary dimensions of diversity( the things we can see) are the things that inhibit awareness and sensitivity to others. We tend to make decisions about others based on race, age, gender, appearance, ability, etc. When we make our decisions at the primary level, we miss the opportunity to know people at the secondary level (things below the surface) which is where we discover that we have more in common than we do different. It is the primary level that causes the most difficulty and creates problems in our society.

    At JP Davis & Associates we choose to look at this "problem" as an elephant. The elephant represents the labels, the stereotypes and assumptions that we may have about others. What are we going to do about it? We're going to eat it. How do you eat an elephant? One bite at a time. Each of us has a circle of influence that can help to bring down this elephant. Your circle of influence is whatever part of the elephant you can reach. If you are only as tall as the knees, nibble at them consistently. If you can reach the ears, nibble on them. By working together, we all "eat the elephant". Our objective in diversity development and acceptance is to acknowledge our own biases, identify any negative perpetuating behaviors, and choose a personal strategy to help eliminate the elephant.

    Diversity is a business and societal issue. Education is knowledge and knowledge is power. Diversity education is a must.







    FUNDAMENTAL PROGRAMS/ Sexual Harassment


    Sexual harassment is one of the most complex human resource workplace issues of our time. It's legal, moral, emotional, and civil rights implications have stirred many debates. Sometimes its obvious and easily defined. Other times it is complicated and illusive. It can result from innocent action that is misinterpreted or misunderstood. Or, it can result from deliberate, malicious, and intentional behavior. It might be one unfortunate occurrence, or it can be an ongoing pattern of negative sexual behavior. Sexual harassment can have devastating implication-personally, professionally, and psychologically.  Additionally, the financial cost to corporations and individuals found at fault can be staggering.

    Whatever the case, organizations struggle to prevent sexual harassment before it happens and address it when it is does. While there is no "cookbook" answer to prevent sexual harassment, experts acknowledge that the most effective methods of prevention include the following:
    • A well-written policy regarding sexual harassment that is easily understood
    • Regular communication regarding the policy on sexual harassment
    • Ensuring that every employee knows sexual harassment will not be tolerated
    • Providing early and ongoing training to help employees recognize and prevent inappropriate workplace behavior
    • taking all complaints seriously and conducting through investigations
    • Swift and appropriate action for all violations
    At JP Davis and Associates we offer a complete and comprehensive education program for managers and employees. This comprehensive training includes everything from understanding sexual harassment- what it is an what it is not- to how to handle a sexual harassment complaint. We are prepared to help you implement a new program or enhance your present one. your organization and your employees deserve a workplace environment free of harassment.
