Ouch! That Stereotype Hurts
Have you ever heard someone tell a bad joke or make a demeaning comment, and you didn’t know what to say? Saying nothing condones the offensive statement.
Ouch! explores the impact of bias and stereotypes and teaches 6 techniques to speak up without shame or blame.
Learn 6 Techniques to Speak Up
Ouch! teaches 6 simple techniques that anyone can learn and practice in order to speak up in the presence of a joke a comment that’s based on a stereotype.
“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.”

Why is Ouch! That Stereotype Hurts important?
• Have you ever heard someone say something biased or demeaning, and you didn’t know whether or how to speak up?
• Have you ever said something unintentionally offensive and wished you could take it back?
If you answered “yes” to either of these questions, the Ouch! program is for you. It will help you gain the skills and confidence needed to successfully communicate in a diverse world.
Why is speaking up important?
Staying silent in the face of demeaning comments, stereotypes or bias allows these attitudes and behaviors to thrive. This undermines our ability to create an inclusive workplace where all employees are welcomed, treated with respect and able to do their best work. Yet, most people who want to speak up don’t know how and instead say nothing.
When you hear a disrespectful comment or joke, you have a choice:
1) Reinforce it by laughing or joining in.
2) Tolerate it by saying nothing, which is what most people do. Or
3) Speak up and become an ally, the hardest but most important thing of all.
Available languages:
The Ouch! streaming video course is available with English captions, and a Spanish (Latin America) version is fully translated with text and captions: ¡Ay! Eso es un estereotipo y duele.

In what formats is your training offered?
We offer our training programs in three formats:
• Self-Paced Online Learning – asynchronous e-Learning course
• Trainer’s Toolbox – provides access to our videos, Leader’s Guide, PowerPoint files and handouts
• Interactive Live Webinars – SunShower experts deliver training in customized workshops on Zoom
What is Self-Paced Online Learning?
The streaming video course includes the video and offers a bit more information and experience for learners. It’s still short – just 15 minutes! The course has a 10-question quiz at the end and offers a downloadable completion certificate.
With a 1-year license, you can add this SCORM 1.2 course to your Learning Management System and offer it to your employees inside your own training ecosystem. You can train a handful of people or thousands. Select the level of usage you anticipate and purchase here, or book 20 minutes with Joel Lesko, SunShower’s Producer/President, to craft a custom license.
What is the Trainer’s Toolbox and how does it work?
The Trainer’s Toolbox is designed to replace DVDs and USBs. No more, “Who’s got the USB?” or “Uh-oh, we lost it”. All the materials that used to reside on a DVD or USB are now easily accessible from the SunShower Learning website, ready for you whenever you conduct a training. The Trainer’s Toolbox can be used for in-person or virtual training sessions, regardless of your computer’s operating system. You can play the videos full-screen and and present on Teams, Zoom and other virtual platforms.
Your subscription includes full access to the videos as well as a downloadable Leader’s Guide, PowerPoint files and PDF handouts. And, pricing is flexible, based on team size: small (1-5 facilitators), medium (6-14 facilitators) or large (15-29 facilitators). Upon subscribing, you’ll receive an email from our website with the link and login credentials.
How is the Self-Paced Online Learning course different from the Trainer’s Toolbox?
The online course is designed for individual, self-paced use by logging into your own learning management system (LMS) or accessing SunShower’s online LMS. In contrast, the Trainer’s Toolbox is a set of resources (videos, a Leader’s Guide, PowerPoint files and handouts) for you and/or your team of trainers to use to conduct your own instructor-led training – in-person or on virtual platforms like Zoom.
Are your online courses accessible?
Accessibility is not just about captions. We are committed to the highest values of accessibility. To achieve that, our roadmap includes not only the basics – transcripts, captions, alt text, and many more features – but also the Extended Audio Description (AD) and other critical corrections. Inclusion is built into every aspect of our work. Each course is at a different stage of development.
