By now, you are likely familiar with the concept of implicit bias and how it impacts both individuals and organizations in decision-making. However, knowledge of the problem is just the first step. In order to truly "walk the diversity talk," we must take definitive strides in the direction of diversity, equity and inclusion.
Join Sean Carter, humorist at law, for this serious look at eliminating bias. In this new program, lawyers will learn how to translate their insights about implicit bias into actionable steps to reduce bias in their own decision-making and in the organizations they lead. By examining case studies and the best practices of leading organizations in the legal industry and beyond, lawyers will learn how to:
- Identify and reduce their own biases
- Develop greater culture competency
- Navigate and resolve microaggressions
- Recognize structural impediments to diversity
- Drive organizational change
