Combating Unconscious Bias in the Workplace
Whether we realize it or not, we all have biases about the people we interact with each day. This includes individuals in our professional lives, and unconscious bias can impact the way we problem-solve and the way we interact with coworkers. Such biases may come about as a result of our background, culture, personal life experiences, and even the media we consume. When we bring unconscious bias into the workplace, it can negatively impact employees and their ability to thrive and succeed in their careers.
