Diversity Training Series: Unconscious Bias
Virtual
Unconscious Bias:
Biases play out in the workplace through micro events - subtle behaviors that generally go unnoticed - and therefore result in a harmful environment. Through awareness-building discussions and activities, role-plays and unconscious bias case studies, this session will help you better understand bias and practice proven techniques to help you and your colleagues avoid bias and leverage the power of a more positive, inclusive work environment.
