This document discusses unconscious bias and its effects. It begins by defining bias and explaining that bias can be explicit and deliberate or implicit and unconscious. It notes that implicit bias can influence behaviors and decisions without awareness. The document then discusses common biases around gender and race, how stereotypes form unconscious associations, and challenges perceiving individuals accurately. It stresses that unconscious bias is unintentional but still important to address. It suggests ways to overcome bias like self-reflection, acknowledging blindspots, and calling out biased behaviors in others to promote more inclusive environments.

Hinweis der Redaktion
- You are here because you are interested in the subject of unconscious bias, based on the title, or because you experienced it, or…what biases did you walk in here with? Write down 3 most important things.
- Everyone has biases, because everyone has a lens.
- Unconscious bias developed as part of our rapid-assessments of threats, often triggering a “fight-or-flight” response. We evolved as human beings to seek food, shelter, and safety, and avoid threats by predators or those who can harm us. The accompanying physiological response is also rapid, associated with adrenaline rushing through your system. As with people, we are still hard-wired to group people, categorize them into labels or boxes we can understand to determine if they are friend or foe. In our society, this can be murky water indeed.
- perspective
- Your core principles are a direct reflection of your self-concept, the filters through which you see the world. Your socioeconomic status, your family or relationship status, how many followers you have on twitter this morning, your faith, and your exercise regimen. Every single section of this wheel, and more, contribute to how you see yourself and those around you. We are here to talk about biases, ones you have experienced and ones you yourself may be perpetuating. The key is recognizing that you cannot change someone else’s lens, but you can, with commitment, change your own, and learn to navigate the murky waters of bias.
- If you were a hiring manager, and were selecting candidates for an interview, how might race and gender come into play? How might you judge candidates based on a picture and some highlights from their resume? Let’s play a game shall we, and see how your lens is doing. Write down any feelings or judgements that arise. Confusion or weird are normal.
- Reflexive loops reinforce stereotypes, and you end up only seeking data to support your already held conclusions and beliefs to justify your actions. Stop. Check to see how you are feeling. Where did the conclusions and beliefs first come from?
- To break free from a reflexive loop, go back to observation, and seek “data to contrary”. Are there pieces of data you missed? Tell a hypothetical. How might that change your ladder of inference?
- Implicit bias lives in this pane. Push out data to the contrary, challenge what others’ assumptions of you. Communicate well, clearly, and epathetically.
