Unconscious Bias is a learned stereotype that is automatic, unintentional, deeply ingrained, universal and able to influence behavior. Unconscious bias seeps into decisions that affect recruitment, retention, hiring, access to healthcare, banking, housing, education, the justice system, providing services, interpersonal interactions and outcomes in ways that can disadvantage both individuals and groups of people. We all have some form of unconscious bias and the key is to recognize that we have it and employ techniques to mitigate it.
Learning Objectives:
Define and identify unconscious bias
