Thanks to the popularity of the first TED session on Mellody Hobson\u2019s talk, this session drew more than 2x the number of participants.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the first workshop, we learned that a lot of the invitees expressed apprehension at openly talking about race in the workplace. People who participated in that workshop discussed how they \u201cfeared negative repercussions if they said something unintentionally offensive or incorrect\u201d at work. Others voiced concerns that they might be \u201cseen by peers as not \u2018woke\u2019,\u201d and preferred to avoid conversations about race altogether.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The idea of call-out culture, whether it happens publicly or behind closed doors, is to hold people accountable for their actions. However, by \u201cshaming\u201d these individuals and framing what they did as strictly \u201cright or wrong,\u201d we as a collective are essentially censoring opinions through the fear of being called out, or canceled, when we should be digging deeper.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/explore.degreed.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/Quote_ted-at-work_promote-2-1024x576.png\" alt=\"Loretta J. Ross\u2019 talk \u201cDon't call people out \u2013 call them in.&quot; Quote &quot;Admit that there's a possibility other people are as complicated as you are,&quot; TED@Work. \" class=\"wp-image-38302\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Talking the Talk<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The world we live in has shifted in many ways over the past few years, and cancel or call-out culture\u2014the public shaming and blaming, on social media and in real life, of people who may have done wrong and are being held accountable\u2014is a direct product of people feeling empowered to stand up for themselves, and oftentimes others. Calling people out has become the norm in an attempt to shed light on toxic behavior and take part in a collective movement to stop it.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Social movements like Black Lives Matter and #MeToo highlighted that while we have made great strides in educating those around us, holding people accountable and gaining allies, sometimes we need to remember to give those being targeted the space to speak for themselves. And what if we took that introspection even further, and really thought about the consequences of, as well as the motives behind, publicly calling people out for their behavior?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After establishing guidelines for a safe, constructive discussion and watching the talk together, the workshop participants broke out into small groups in separate rooms to discuss the concept of calling in.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Each group had breakout room facilitators who gently led the conversation, leveraging resources provided in the TED@Work Meeting-in-a-Box Pathway for this workshop. While each group\u2019s discussions were different, participants noted leaving with a better understanding of how to have these difficult conversations, and of each other. Here are some takeaways from our recent TED@Work workshop:&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">1. Accept complexity.&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>In her TED Talk, Ross talks about her beginnings as an activist and how she made the shift to start inviting people in, rather than pushing them away. She defines \u201ccalling in\u201d very simply: it\u2019s a call-out, done with love. Rather than pointing fingers or drawing attention to behavior that we find offensive or borderline, which activates people\u2019s defense mechanisms, calling in is an invitation to exchange in dialogue.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In a work environment, it is natural and normal to sometimes question your colleague\u2019s behaviors. Imagine a coworker of yours says something you find to be generally offensive on a Zoom call. Rather than venting about it on a debrief call with another colleague and branding that person as a lost cause, why not call them in, or call on them, giving them a chance to clear the air?&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ross describes embracing this habit as \u201cadmitting that there is a possibility they [the person you are interacting with] are as complicated as you are,\u201d and asking them probing questions so you can understand the root of their behavior. These can be as simple as \u201cThat\u2019s an interesting viewpoint, tell me more.\u201d&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2. Recognize motives.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Ross recommends you think long and hard about your motives if you feel the urge to call someone out. While call-outs are generally an attempt at holding people accountable for their actions, they can come off as combative.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Calling <em>on<\/em> someone is a middle ground technique that starts with a neutral statement like \u201cI beg your pardon,\u201d and waiting while the person reflects on their actions. By asking such a simple question, you can find that the person will think through what they\u2019ve just said and clarify their meaning.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3. Dig deeper.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Calling people <em>in <\/em>is not about eliminating accountability, but rather digging deeper into why people behave the way they do and calling on them to do better.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Publicly piling on someone who has done something we consider wrong only serves to shame them while calling them in offers opportunities to learn and grow for both parties.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Many misunderstandings in the workplace can be chalked up to simple miscommunication. This is especially true when in a remote-first company, as it is easy to miss out on visual and bodily cues when on virtual calls.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One of the biggest remote principles we are currently looking to implement across Degreed is to simply assume the best intentions in others, another concept that blurs the line of work and life, and ties directly back to what we heard during our TED@Work workshop&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Walking the Walk<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The RaceEQ BRG is <a href=\"https:\/\/degreed.com\/experience\/blog\/increasing-workplace-engagement-with-brgs\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">one of many at Degreed<\/a> and part of a wider string of DEIB initiatives of which we are incredibly proud. In addition to the TED@Work series, the group hosts numerous events around Black History Month, Juneteenth, the Lunar New Year, Hispanic Heritage Month, and Diwali to name just a few.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While educating people about racial equity is our main purpose, we also love when we can draw parallels with our everyday work lives. We are all human beings, capable of saying the wrong thing. Let\u2019s make it a habit to call in and on each other and keep call-out culture out of the workplace.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-id=\"38290\" src=\"https:\/\/explore.degreed.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/TED_at_work_promotesdialogue-1024x576.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-38290\"\/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Get in on the Action<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/tedatwork.ted.com\/degreed\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">TED@Work for Degreed<\/a> includes 600+ TED Talks and TED-Ed animations supporting business-critical skills like team-building, managing stress, and inclusive leadership.
