8 TOOLS TO MITIGATE IMPLICIT BIAS

 

Time: 6:00 AM ChST

 

Description: Everyone holds implicit biases. That doesn’t make us “bad people,” it just means that we have work to do. This one-hour, interactive training will teach you how to understand and begin to undo your own implicit biases. We’ll start by learning the brain science behind implicit bias, and how the part of the brain that used to protect us now holds us back. Through polls, brief thought experiments, and journaling, we’ll reflect on how implicit bias can show up in our actions and the impacts those biases can have on ourselves and our teams. Then we’ll roll our sleeves up and get to work, practicing 8 concrete ways that you can begin to mitigate bias in your own life. You’ll leave more confident in your ability to see and mitigate bias.
