‘The Office’ — A Comedy Suitable For HR Training?

Editorial Team

The Office, the TV comedy about a jumble of oddball workers trying to get along in a claustrophobic environment, is a phenomenon of our times, a period when the American workforce is more diverse than it has ever been, National Public Radio reports. Though the show is clearly a caricature, there are grains of truth in the dysfunctional conflicts that drive its humor, which some people think make it suitable fare for HR training.

    As a seasoned HR Practicioner I value the ability to navigate sub-cultures, diverse-idiosyncracies, differences in people that can theaten the stability of the work environment. “Why can’t we all just get along” is harder today as a result of pronounced – people differences.
    We must therefore live and let live while adhering to some boundaries and reverence for the culture/environment that we “live in’ day-to-day.
