Event Description:
Unconscious Bias - Be Aware of Your Hidden Thoughts That Influence Your Actions and Decisions
Are you fair and unbiased about people, especially in how you relate to customers and staff? How do you know? Your unconscious biases about people influence your actions and decisions in your work far more than your conscious thinking. You need to be intentional and aware of the unconscious thoughts you have about groups of people. Are they factual based? Relevant? Where do they come from?

Your unconscious biases about people influence your actions and decisions in your work far more than your conscious thinking. You need to be intentional and aware of the unconscious thoughts you have about groups of people. Are they factual based? Relevant? Where do they come from?
You will walk away with answers to these questions:
- What is unconscious bias?- How does unconscious bias impact my interactions with and decisions about people?
- How can I recognize and minimize my unconscious biases about groups of people?
Join Kevin Pokorny, of Pokorny Consulting and West Side Chamber Ambassador, to learn and understand about unconscious bias.
