Planning the Workshop Delivery
Facilitation According to Ingrid Bens, in her book Facilitating with Ease (Jossey-Bass, 2005) “Facilitation is a way of providing leadership without taking the reins.” This means that as a facilitator, your job will be to guide your participants through this workshop and to orchestrate discussions, much like a musical conductor where you are not playing an instrument, but you are controlling the outcome. Your part is not to teach your participants particular skills or provide them with specific knowledge in this workshop, but rather to lead them on a short journey in awareness of how diversity and inclusiveness relate to Tyco’s core values and applying this understanding to real life situations as described in the case studies included in this workshop.
Many of you may be very experienced and accomplished facilitators, where for some, this may be your first experience in facilitating a group workshop. In either case, remember that in a facilitation setting your job is to facilitate the participant’s self-learning rather than teaching. To learn more about facilitation, search the internet for informative articles and resources or contact your human resources office for internal resources and training.
Before the Workshop Preparation for this work shop is similar to many other workshops in terms of logistics and planning. One exception is that you will need to contact a Tyco Leader to make a short presentation at the beginning of your workshop on Tyco’s commitment to a Diverse and Inclusive workplace. By Tyco Leader, it is suggested that you contact the highest ranking executive in your facility or that person’s direct report, preferably a line manager. In addition, you will need to keep the Tyco Leader informed of the workshop location, the workshop schedule and the specific time frame for the Leader’s presentation.
A presentation guide has been created to assist your Tyco Leader in presenting the diversity and inclusion key points (see below). This presentation guide was adapted from a presentation given by Mike Ryan at Tyco Safety Products.
The slides that are to be presented in this workshop were created in Microsoft® Office PowerPoint®. Please ensure that the computer that you will be using to conduct this presentation has the appropriate software to display the slides on an LCD projector.
This Facilitator Guide, presentation slides, Participant Manual and Tyco Leader Presentation materials can be downloaded from the following Tyco intranet site location: http://lms.tyco-training.com/content/_Toolkit/diversity/index.htm

There are two exercises contained n the workshop that require advance preparation:
1) The first is Exercise 1 where you will have team members select a label from a bowl or other container. Locate the labels in the Appendix of this Facilitator Guide and print the Exercise 1 Dimensions of Diversity Labels and cut out each label. Then fold each label once and place in the bowl or other container. 2) The second is Case Studies 1, 2 and 3, where you will need to locate the handouts in the Appendix of this Facilitator Guide and print enough copies of each case so that you may have out one sheet to each of the 3-5 member teams in the workshop.

Workshop Checklist Determine the number of attendees for the workshop Locate and reserve a suitable classroom or conference room for the workshop (keep in mind space requirements for a projector and flip charts) Arrange for the delivery of the Tyco Leadership Presentation with your local Tyco Leader. Download presentation guide and provide to Tyco Leader. Order lunch, snacks or beverages, if you will be providing them during the workshop. Download and print workshop materials from the Tyco Diversity and Inclusion website. If you are outsourcing the printing of the Participant Guides, ensure delivery to correct location and in ample time to review the order prior to the workshop. Order or reserve LCD projector, remote control (for advancing slides in PowerPoint) screen and one or two flip chart stands and pads of flip chart paper and markers for recording responses and feedback from participants. Notify participants of the workshop and provide specific instructions to the facility and specific workshop classroom / conference room (Note: facility location information is especially helpful for participants who may be attending from other physical locations within Tyco). Print and cut out the Exercise 1 labels from the Appendix of this Facilitator Guide. Obtain a bowl or other container to hold the Exercise 1 labels. Print sufficient copies of the Case Study 1, 2 and 3 handouts for the number of Participants attending your workshop (i.e., 1 copy per team of 3-5 Participants).
Day of Workshop Arrive at the workshop classroom / conference room two hours in advance, if possible, to set up the projector, screen, flip charts and to arrange the room so that seating is conducive for small groups to be able to work together in discussing exercises and case studies. If you are serving food and beverages during the workshop, ensure that these items are delivered and set up so as to avoid disruptions during the workshop. Check your projector to ensure that it is working, the video from your computer is displayed on the screen and that your remote control device is working correctly. Leave the title slide displayed on the screen (Note: Always check your remote control’s batteries to ensure that they are fully charged. Having a fresh set of AAA batteries on- hand can help to ensure that your presentation flows smoothly.). As participants arrive for the workshop, greet participants and invite them to sit where they feel comfortable. If you are serving food or beverage, encourage them to enjoy the food and/or beverage. Greet your Tyco Leader and thank him or her for participating in today’s workshop. Locate a seat for your Tyco Leader and suggest near the door, if he or she will be leaving the workshop after his or her presentation.

Be sure to probe about the feelings and consequences to our organization if we have people feeling that way. Thank the participant for sharing his or her story. Go around the room and ask Participants to tell their story. Ask that each Participant share his or her story before continuing with the workshop.
Summarize the exercise by saying:
We have spent time recalling how exclusion feels and understanding the negative consequences to our group and Tyco overall, if we have a culture of exclusion vs. inclusion.
Exclusion is rarely on purpose. It usually happens because we are unconscious of how our behavior impacts others, because of lack of exposure, and because we are unaware of some of our own biases and stereotypes.
I want to shift our focus to inclusion. I want to be sure we know how to define it and spend the rest of our time together discussing how to practice inclusive behaviors.

Process Content Notes COURSE CONTENT Display this slide: Note: This is the slide containing the suggested responses from two slides back.
Do Preface each item with the question from the previous This: inclusion slide: “What is inclusion?” When everyone has an opportunity to participate, feels a sense of belonging, feels respected, valued and seen for who they are. “Why does it matter?” Differences are respected and welcome as a norm of interaction and we benefit from the supportive energy and commitment from our colleagues and bosses, so we can individually and collectively do our best work. “How does it influence our short term and long term success?” Short term: The Zero sum game does not exist. Everyone can grow and develop and reach their potential. Long term: Leadership shows up in many forms and we can leverage the diversity of thought, problem solving and creativity to our competitive advantage.
©2009 Tyco International Management Company January 2009 Diversity and Inclusion in the New Reality Facilitator Guide – 32
Process Content Notes Compare the responses on the slide to the responses on the flip chart paper. Remind participants that just as we have seen, through the sharing of exclusion experiences we understand what it is about and we realize diversity is the flip side of that. Creating an inclusive culture is a conscious act. We have to be thoughtful and self aware in order to be sure we are including other people who are different than we are.
