Event Description
As clinicians, we often teach perspective-taking skills to our clients; however, perspective-taking is not often discussed as a tool in the workplace. This session will describe the benefits of perspective-taking in the workplace, such as building more effective teams and decreasing prejudice and stereotyping. In addition, we will identify some of the barriers to perspective-taking and learn how to recognize our own collaboration blind spots so that we can become better at seeing things from a colleague’s point of view. Finally, we will talk about tips for becoming better collaborators and supporting our clients’ outcomes through team-based intervention approaches
Learning Objectives:
- Identify what benefits perspective-taking in the workplace can produce
- Identify how different theories of language development contribute to different perspectives surrounding intervention
- Define collaboration blind spots and how they contribute to collaboration bias
- Describe steps to collaborative team-building and perspective-taking in the workplace
