Unconscious Bias: Making
Decisions Without Recognizing Your Own Biases

Presented by Mary Stewart-Pellegrini,
Ph.D., Managing Director, The Stewart Management Group, LLC
|
|

Research on discrimination in the workplace
has shown that unconscious biases can lead
to discriminatory organizational
decision-making that adversely affects
employees, clients and the organization's
bottom line. In this presentation attendees
will learn about The Behavioral Bias
Interruption Process (BBIP), and a tool (Equitychecking)
formulated to assist management, supervisors
and other decision makers in understanding
and avoiding the problems resulting from
unconscious and therefore unexamined bias.
The Behavioral Bias Interruption Process (BBIP)
is used to identify and reduce the impact of
micro-inequities that thwart fairness and
objectivity during human resource talent
identification and development efforts,
included hiring, staffing, performance
feedback, mentoring, and promotion.
