Vanity Fair Controversy

OK, if you’re like me and your guilty pleasure is to keep abreast of all things Hollywood, then you’ve probably noticed the ire of myriad individuals toward the “New Hollywood” issue of Vanity Fair. Apparently, the magazine features nine up-and-coming starlets, such as Anna Kendrick from “Up in the Air” and Kristen Stewart from the “Twilight” series. There’s just one catch, though: Critics note that there is simply no diversity in the group of women that was eventually selected and that… Continue

Managing Diverse Expectations

I just finished working on an article for Talent Management magazine on the appropriateness of workplace romances and when managers should get involved. There were a few interesting tidbits, found in a recent Workplace Options study, that I’d like to share in this blog.

Tackling a Racist Comment

I was chatting with a friend recently about something that peeved her at work. A male colleague of hers made an offhand comment or joke referencing African-Americans within earshot of my friend, who happens to be one, and she — rightly so — took offense to her co-worker’s insensitivity. Could the gentleman have thought his remark would not penetrate his cubicle walls? Perhaps. Could he have been just plain ignorant and not known the comment was racist? It’s probable. Or it may just be that his… Continue
