Biases occur when individuals make spontaneous judgments about people or situations based on past experiences, culture, background, or exposure to media. These hidden preferences or prejudices can affect nearly every decision an organization makes. Biases can stymie diversity, recruiting, and retention efforts and can unknowingly shape an organization’s culture. Bias affects who gets hired, promoted, and developed. If left unchecked, it also is blamed for influencing discriminatory behavior and workplace inequality. Most recently, it has been identified as a major contributor to the gender pay gap.
Organizations need to recognize and root out the unconscious biases that can undermine their diversity efforts, recruiting, and retention programs. By providing proper awareness training and putting processes in place that identify unconscious biases, organizations can take positive steps in minimizing biases that can impact every aspect of an organization. Why Should you Attend Tackling unconscious bias in the workplace can be difficult because it can be neither visible nor deliberate. Managers and employees might not realize they are making unfair assumptions or developing stereotypes based on the personal biases they bring to the workplace. Unconscious bias happens outside of our control. It occurs automatically and is triggered by our brain making quick judgments. Individuals who experience bias can feel marginalized and unhappy leading to a less inclusive organizational culture, lower employee morale, and reduced employee retention. Attending this best hr courses online webinar will provide participants with the information needed to recognize bias and then take the necessary steps to address and reduce bias in their workplace.
