10. D.I.A.L.O.G.™ BETWEEN CULTURES
Culture is the lens we view the World
through, it controls
actions, values, beliefs, attitudes and
behaviors. Dialogue is a way of
observing how hidden values and
intentions can control our
behavior, and how unnoticed cultural
differences can clash without our
realizing what is occurring. Through
dialogue increased
harmony, fellowship and creativity can
arise. Dialogue can be used to open
communication, break down
stereotypes and facilitate more
productive relationships.

11. D.I.A.L.O.G.™ BETWEEN GENDERS
Women executives are on the rise
in the corporate world.
Men and Women think, speak and
decide differently.
Dialogue is how you communicate
across difference, and
misunderstandings in a way that is
both respectful and effective.
Dialogue builds mutual trust and
respect, by breaking down gender
stereotypes and improve
communications between men and
women at work

12. D.I.A.L.O.G.™ BETWEEN GENERATIONS
The key to Dialogue between
older, younger and generations in
between is to promote mutual
understanding, tolerance and
appreciation of the different cultures of
all the generations at play.
Dialogue can uncover how different
personal and world views of different
generations can lead to
misunderstandings and distrust, helps
overcome age barriers, develops
further intellectual life for the benefit of
the organization, and build more
productive workplace relationships.

13. D.I.A.L.O.G.™ BETWEEN RELIGIONS
Claims to exclusive truth and
absoluteness threaten to damage or
even wreck the dialogue of religions.
Respect and tolerance with regard to
other religions is a fundamental
prerequisite for interreligious dialogue
and co-operation.
The dialogue will focus on human
interaction and peaceful behavior that
will create at least an understanding
and respect of different
theories, behaviors and beliefs while
asserting their own

14. D.I.A.L.O.G.™: SEXUAL ORIENTATION
Achieving understanding of a different
sexual orientation or gender identity is
a challenge of knowledge, experience,
and empathy as they are not always
obvious. , Sexual orientation is at the
core of the very personal of feelings
and behaviors.
Dialogue will let us re-examine our
attitudes, ask questions, seek
knowledge, and reflect on our
perceptions, and beliefs. The bridge is
crossed from opinion, to knowledge, to
understanding

15. D.I.A.L.O.G.™ BETWEEN ABILITIES&
DISABILITIES
A disable person as defined by the
“ADA” is someone who has a
physical or mental impairment, or
has a record of such impairment or
is regarded as having such an
impairment, that substantially limits
that person in one or more life
activities.
Dialogue will reach beyond the
protective laws to discover the
thoughts, feelings, perceptions of a
disable individual; it will help
understand these individuals’ unique
qualities and assets, varied
experiences that can enhance a
company’s culture.
