Bias and Diversity Blindness

This workshop explores what is implicit bias, status blindness and code switch, how they operate, and the costs to the workplace. Participants explore the types of bias, how to identify them and methods to reduce the negative impacts of bias. The workshop also addresses the major types of ‘blindness’ including color/race, age, gender, sexual orientation, disability, religion and class. Participants will learn ways to code switch, address and overcome status blindness in the workplace.
