Overcoming Unconscious Bias at Work

Unconscious bias can shape workplace decisions before awareness has a chance to intervene, affecting performance, communication, collaboration, and trust across teams. This practical, fast-paced webinar helps participants recognize unconscious bias in real time and understand how it can influence decisions, interactions, and results in everyday work environments.

Rather than focusing on theory alone, this session emphasizes actionable strategies that leaders and team members can use immediately to interrupt bias and improve workplace outcomes. Attendees will explore common types of unconscious bias, learn how to separate facts from assumptions, and discover practical methods to challenge thinking patterns, reduce blind spots, and strengthen team decision-making.

Participants will also gain tools to reduce bias in meetings and group discussions while using structured criteria to move beyond “gut instinct” decision-making.
