Lunch & Learn: Unconscious Bias – Knowing What You Don’t Know

With Derek Mosley

Unconscious Bias is a learned stereotype that is automatic, unintentional, deeply ingrained, universal, and able to influence behavior. Unconscious bias seeps into decisions that affect recruitment, retention, hiring, access to healthcare, banking, housing, education, the justice system, providing services, interpersonal interactions, and outcomes in ways that can disadvantage both individuals and groups of people. We all have some form of unconscious bias, and the key is to recognize that we have it and employ techniques to mitigate it.

In this session you will learn:

• How to assess, define and measure your unconscious bias
• The history of unconscious bias in America
• How subconsciously, decisions are being made in your mind
• How unconscious bias affects everyday life
• Ways to mitigate your bias
