Words of praise for Ouch! That Stereotype Hurts
“The Ouch Video is a great complement to our harassment training since many potential harassment situations involve those “not so obvious” stereotypical comments. As participants watched the video, we could see heads nodding in agreement that stereotypes still exist. Since rolling out the training, employees in all of our facilities across the U.S. are saying “ouch” to speak up against stereotypes.”

Finally, a video that shows the viewer exactly how to respond in moments of diversity-related tension! No blame, no guilt, no conflict – just practical, specific skills that can be immediately applied in the workplace. Ouch! is a must-have and a must-see for anyone seeking to create and sustain a respectful workplace.

“I’m so passionate about the tools that the Ouch! program brings because they give people the opportunity to have a layer of protection and safety that helps them know what to say in the moment. Practicing these tools is what helps people speak up. And I tell people all the time, speak, even if your voice shakes; you’ll get better at it.”
