Moving Unconscious Bias to a Conscious Level

This Mini Module contains a portion of the material from Lessons 1, 2, 3 and 4 in Module One of the Main Module Program, with a focus on racial/ethnic diversity. This training defines culture and identifies unconscious bias at both the individual and systemic levels.

Learning Objectives

  • Learn key concepts of unconscious bias, cultural differences, and systemic bias and how they can affect interviewing and front-line roles.
  • Gain exposure to numerous examples of bias from diverse perspectives and explores ways systemic bias can exist within an interview team, the hiring process, and in front-line roles.
  • Explore methods to help interviewers and front-line staff move their bias to a conscious level, reduce or eliminate bias, and remove barriers for individuals of diverse backgrounds.

Features

  • Structured into sequential parts with reflection prompts throughout each module.
  • Presents authentic quotes and real-world examples―gathered from the author’s firsthand research rather than scripted scenarios or fabricated statements.
  • Provides a unique approach that helps participants view their actions through the perspectives of diverse individuals―demonstrating how unconscious bias can appear in cross-cultural interactions.

About This Training
