Mitigating Unconscious Bias in the Hiring Process --LIFESPAN FALL SUMMIT (LIVE WEBINAR DATE) -- October 1, 2020
- Registration Closed
A vast body of research shows that the hiring process is biased and unfair. Unconscious racism, ageism, and sexism play a significant role in who gets hired. But there are steps you can take to recognize and reduce these biases. This is because many people's attitudes and behaviors are based on mental shortcuts and stereotypes that are made without realizing it. Our brains have a natural tendency to make quick decisions based on limited information, and this can ultimately affect who we hire and promote. Undoing these behaviors requires moving from a fixed mindset— to one of openness and growth, where we can deeply understand, challenge, and confront our personal biases.
