Short answer: No. Shitty people will be shitty people.

Longer answer: No 30 minute exercise is going to instill in someone that the behavior they have had normalized throughout their entire life by those around them is flawed. I mean have you ever tried to tell a C developer there are alternatives?

There probably are a lot of people who aren't aggressively shitty but just inconsiderate of the feelings and disadvantages that other people have. I imagine it would work for that group.

Where I've worked, shitty people get fired. They don't need to be tolerated.

Once and I have a scar from the fork to prove it.
