It is the perfect employee benefit. The life skills taught in the workshops are not only applicable on the job, but in everyday life as well. All attendees volunteer to take the workshop and it has quickly become the most requested and popular workshop. The feedback on the effective and extremely applicable skills learned has been tremendous. Women report increased confidence, and feel safer in every aspect of their lives.
Men appreciate the verbal and negotiating skills that they learn.
Most recently we have expanded the workshops to include employees from all areas of Nordstrom and the response has been overwhelming. The value of the gift of safety and well-being to employees is immeasurable.
