As humans, we're all biased. The question is not 'are we biased', the question is 'what are our biases'. We unconsciously infer things about people all the time. We do it at work on a daily basis. The challenge is that our biases are rarely blatant. Our biases may surface as subtle micro-behaviors that we often don't notice. In this course, we'll learn more about bias and what we can do to control and counteract our biases. This course will cover some of the ways our brains demonstrate these biases so we can better understand and recognize them, and we will invite participants to discuss ways they can overcome situations where they observe or feel bias.
This is an asynchronous short-course that contains videos, resources for learning more, and a set of questions in each section to help facilitate learning. An asynchronous course is a course that can be done on your own time. Feel free to pause, take a break, and come back to your saved progress to continue with the course. There is no deadline for completion of this course.
