Unconscious Bias in the Workplace

Waiting to Ask For Forgiveness Could Cost You. 

Biases are influenced by a person’s values, background, cultural environment, personal experiences, and societal stereotypes/norms that have an impact on decisions and actions without the person realizing it.

This course explores how Unconscious Biases are developed, how they influence our perceptions, performance, career development opportunities, shape our decision making, and its impact on the health of diversity and inclusion at an individual, leadership, and organizational level.

The goal of increasing your awareness is to channel positive and negative biases towards successful outcomes.

This workshop supports the Building Personal Capability domain in the ATD Capability model.
