From Unconscious Bias to Conscious Inclusion

We often have unconscious biases towards individuals with diverse traits and beliefs who are different from us or unfamiliar to us in multiple ways. Detecting and becoming aware of this bias and learning to manage it by acting on the awareness is crucial to creating an inclusive workplace. This session will introduce participants to conscious inclusion practices and focus on developing the empathy and awareness to combat biases, while diversifying their networks and experiences, and committing to inclusive behaviors. Practicing these new inclusive behaviors and tracking individual and collective progress is also essential. - part of the BUILD curriculum
