Diversity & Inclusion in the Workplace: Deconstructing Unconscious Biases

Diversity and inclusion in the workplace is imperative for a sustainable, competitive and innovative company and society at large. Diversity also goes beyond the outward perception of a company – it includes how the internal structures work and signal the value systems of an organization’s management or leadership team.

In this session, we will tackle how to deconstruct unconscious biases. Unconscious biases are social stereotypes about certain groups of people that individuals form outside of their own conscious awareness. Unconscious biases can influence hiring practices, promotions and treatment within the workplace. To facilitate a diverse and inclusive workplace, unconscious biases must be acknowledged, challenged and deconstructed.

More information to come.

This event is the third in a series designed by Diversify to center Diversity and Inclusion in the Workplace. HerSpace and Diversify are happy to partner to address this important and timely topic. We look forward to seeing you.
