Unconscious biases are biological, functional, and built-in to the human brain over years of evolutionary history. In the modern workplace, our unconscious biases often prevent us from making high-quality decisions that reflect our conscious values of inclusion and equity. 

In this class, you’ll learn how to manage bias in a range of everyday workplace decisions. You will explore what unconscious bias is, the different types of biases, and how they manifest in the workplace.
