Conversations about race can be challenging, yet it plays an important role in workplace investigations, especially those involving discrimination or harassment. OIG’s Christina Ro-Connolly will present “Addressing the Elephant in the Room: The Impact of Race in Investigations,” hosted by the Association of Defense Counsel of Northern California and Nevada.
This one hour, MCLE- approved webinar will delve into the common challenges and advantages an investigator’s race can present in investigations, how investigators respond to client requests for specific investigators based on race, and discuss tools for interviewing and building rapport across racial differences. In addition, the discussion will include how an investigator’s race and cultural competency, or lack thereof, can affect report writing, credibility assessments, factual findings, and other aspects of an investigation.
