EDUCATION SESSION #867
Strategies to Reduce Implicit Bias
We all have biases. The issue is how to recognize them and then act knowingly. Sometimes biases in the mind and process may constrain women’s financial knowledge and activities. Explore the connection between implicit bias and behaviors. Learn how to use that knowledge to better manage teams, investments and client relationships. Additionally, hear about cognitive biases that may prevent optimal decision making.

Issues that will be addressed include:

  1. How biases impact engagement, productivity and team effectiveness;
  2. Which unconscious biases may influence you at work and impact your decisions and interactions;
  3. How you can be a more inclusive and effective team member, given your understanding of biases;
  4. How you can identify and challenge both implicit and cognitive biases that you encounter among colleagues and clients.

Bring your questions, reflections on past experiences and what-if scenarios to what promises to be a lively discussion with strategic take-aways for all participants.
