Tackling Unconscious Bias and Microaggressions at Work

Have you ever asked a question to someone who has different identity dimensions than you and it didn’t end well? You may have dropped some microaggressive language. This course, taught by Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) expert, Kelly Friedman, you’ll learn what unconscious bias is, how to identify it, and strategies to free your workplace of inequities. Microaggressions seem small, but these unintentional slights can result in major consequences. Kelly reviews key definitions, examines the cultural context in America around race and other external identity markers, and discusses tools for how to interrupt your unconscious mind and make authentic connections with others.
