It ’s been said that men and women are so different, they must be from differe nt planets. John Gray’s famous book, Men are from Mars, Women are from Venu s, popularized this theory through the title alone, even with tongue plante d firmly in cheek. In reality, we all come from Earth, but men and women do have diverse ways of speaking, thinking and communicating overall. Just th ink of how you would respond to a particular stimulus and how someone of th e opposite sex might respond if faced with the same situation. Through exte nsive research of the genders, many differences have been found. Most peopl e, though, don’t look deeper into why there’s a difference. Rather, they ma gnify stereotypes or focus on the surface-level issues instead of digging d eeper into why the genders act one way or another. The session focuses on r aising awareness of differences in our communication styles. Both men and w omen in the workplace need to understand one another's thoughts, attitudes and behaviors -- especially communication styles.
