Identifying and Mitigating LGBTQA Bias in our Workplace


“Hidden” or “unconscious” bias is a topic that – while the concept has been around for quite some time – is finally getting a lot of attention within the workplace. There’s a growing number of studies today that show a link between hidden biases and our actual behavior. From hiring and promotion decisions to product and service locations and choices, people in the workplace are beginning to see how hidden biases are related to discriminatory behavior in a wide range of workplace interactions. This webinar will bring to light – in a safe and non-judgmental manner – the concept of our own hidden biases, especially as they relate to the LGBTQA community. We’ll see how you can start the conversation about hidden biases within your workplace; and you’ll leave with a list of strategies you can take back to your workplace on how to address and mitigate these hidden biases.
