Career webinar: 5 Strategies to Defeat Unconscious Bias

February 5, 2020 @ 10:00 am - 12:00 pm

Let’s face it, everybody has some unconscious bias. In the virtual workshop, Defeating Unconscious Bias, the focus is on those inflexible beliefs about whole categories of people that keep us from seeing others accurately, from making fair and appropriate decisions, and from building the kind of harmonious relationships that make our lives more successful.

The “Defeating Unconscious Bias” workshop, offered in collaboration with the Somerset County Library System, is designed to address the hidden biases that can affect hiring, team building and challenges the ability to create inclusivity in both professional and personal settings. The workshop includes simple, actionable, and memorable strategies to enhance workplace productivity and innovation by addressing bias.

Registration is required. To register, go to https://sclsnj.org; go to Programs and Events, click on Adults, and click on February 5th.
