Breaking Bias – Disrupting Unconscious Decisions That Lead to Unexpected Consequences
Study after study show that increased Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DEI) correlates with increased organizational productivity, retention, innovation, and resilience. Yet historically, most organization’s efforts to address DEI have neither improved DEI nor produced the desired benefits. Policy changes, accountability, diversity training; none of them reached their desired results. Why? Because they failed to address unconscious bias. Any effort to address DEI without addressing bias, especially unconscious bias, is doomed to failure. Bias that goes beyond race and gender. Bias with the potential to permeate every decision leadership makes, often without ever realizing it.

We will look at ways we can reduce our own unconscious biases, while also looking at ways we can change our business practices to minimize the impact of cognitive bias without playing the blame game.
