[Unconscious Bias] How it influences decisions and how to interrupt it
We all like to think we are objective, especially when it comes to hiring, promotions, or project assignments. But the human brain is wired for shortcuts. These ‘mental maps’ often lead us to favor people who look or think like us, without us even realizing it.
The goal isn’t to ‘fix’ our brains, but to fix our processes.
Join Bobby Bovell for a 30-minute session on the practical side of unconscious bias. We’ll move past the theory and look at the ‘blind spots’ that impact your team’s outcomes. And, more importantly, how to build simple ‘speed bumps’ into your day-to-day work to make fairer, smarter decisions.
In 30 minutes, you’ll learn:
- The reality of bias: Why your brain takes shortcuts and where they trip you up at work.
-
Spotting the patterns: Common biases that show up in hiring, feedback, and strategy.
-
The ‘interrupt’ strategy: Simple, real-world interventions to ensure objectivity.
-
Better decisions: How to move from ‘gut feeling’ to data-driven fairness.
