Unconscious Bias
What does this actually mean and what exactly do we mean by it? The English term bias can be translated as a cognitive distortion, among other things. This includes, for example, automatic stereotypes, prejudices, biases or other erroneous interpretations when perceiving, remembering and making judgements. As biases usually occur unconsciously, they are referred to as unconscious bias.
Unconscious perceptions, judgements and decisions are always relevant for us in everyday management and recruiting. The way we judge our environment and the people in it very much determines our behaviour. Although unconscious perception enables us to react quickly to our environment, it is also susceptible to errors.
The following questions and their answers are the subject of our Unconscious Bias workshop:
- How did and do we arrive at our unconscious patterns?
- What effects do unconscious biases have on our day-to-day management and hiring activities?
- Why do we find it difficult to pause between perception and evaluation?
- What risks do companies face when they let the right people go and hire the wrong ones?
- Why does the ambassador always rub off on the message and the message always rub off on the ambassador?
- What simple methods help us to communicate more consciously without ignoring unconscious perceptions?
