A powerful look into the private conversation between two co-workers - one of whom is transitioning genders. A must-see for any work environment.

Transitioning to a different gender is a deeply personal decision. There are many unknowns and the added stress of how the workplace will accept the transitioning employee is very real. When discussing with and supporting an employee or co-worker going through the transition, the bottom line and key to personal and team success is simple... it all comes down to respect. Please Call Me Jessica Not Bill captures the emotion and fears of a transitioning employee.

Managers have the responsibility to counsel and coach employees on inappropriate comments and behaviors. We all need to avoid making assumptions about transgender colleagues. We also need to think about how appropriate or inappropriate personal questions are before they ask them of transgender colleagues.

Note: This short video is designed to be facilitated - the discussion guide and video observation form allow trainees to dive into the subject matter by being asked various situational questions and creating a true discussion of the topic.
