Implicit Bias Awareness Participants will learn about implicit biases and understand that we all hold implicit biases at all times- for survival and brain functioning. But, how can these problematic narratives that we hold in our work impact the workplace, our clients, ourselves? What is the science behind biases and how do we mitigate them? How can organizations make sure we maintain awareness around biases and manage the disproportionalities at their settings?

Learning Objectives:

• Participants will be able to practice and recall the brain science behind bias

• Participants will be able to compare and contrast different examples of implicit bias in society
