Program Description
Habits, customs, and beliefs of other cultures are some of the key issues addressed
in this satellite seminar. The objectives of this broadcast are to enable food service
managers and supervisory personnel to:
-
Recognize the dynamics of culture in the United States and its influence on the workplace.
-
Identify skills that open lines of communication while fostering understanding of others.
-
Develop and implement personal strategies to increase knowledge about different cultures.
There will be emphasis on the fact that we
all belong to many different cultural
groups with different norms, roles,
behaviors, and beliefs. Valuing diversity
means being responsive to a broad range
of people. This includes individuals of
different race, gender, class, native
language, national origin, physical ability,
age, sexual orientation, religion,
professional experience, personal
preference, and work style. Role play will
be used to model some of the key topics
and to illustrate how to appreciate
differences as we strive to work together.
Target Audience
The NFSMI invites all child nutrition personnel - including food service
assistants, managers, directors, and state agency staff - and others
