How do these dimensions interact to create misunderstanding that impedes collaborative endeavors? Alternatively, are there ways in which difference can be an asset to group work? And are there lessons relevant to leading across any form of difference, or does each form of difference require unique leadership approaches? These and other questions will be addressed by faculty members and leading practitioners from the University community and beyond. The overarching goal of these discussions will be to hone attendees’ analytical skills for diagnosing and responding to the subtle ways in which difference can influence group process.**** * * -- The Pluralism Project at Harvard University 2 Arrow Street, 4th Floor Cambridge, MA 02138 617-496-2481 www.pluralism.org Twittter: @pluralismproj Like The Pluralism Project on Facebook<http://www.facebook.com/pages/The-Pluralism-Project-at-Harvard-University/1…>!
