• Exploring Bias: A Team Workshop

    12:00pm-5:00pm ET

    Moving towards a more inclusive, equitable and diverse (IED)association is a journey. Collaborate with your team along that path with this workshop offered by CSAE in partnership with CCDI Consulting Inc. Designed to get your team on the same page, this is a workshop you won’t want to miss. For one fee, bring up to 10 participants from your organization and begin your IED journey together.

    This team workshop will establish some of the fundamentals of inclusion, diversity, equity and access (IDEA) and then tackle one of the most pervasive barriers to inclusion in the workplace: unconscious bias. By leveraging the experience of participants through discussions and group activities, you’ll explore the sources and mechanics of bias as well as its impact in the workplace. You’ll discover strategies you can use to increase awareness and mitigate the impact of bias in the workplace. You’ll then build on your understanding of unconscious bias to gain insight into how written and unwritten rules in an organization can negatively impact employees with diverse backgrounds and identities. You’ll explore types of bias, the potential outcome of unconscious bias in the workplace and provide personal strategies to mitigate the impact of these biases.

    By the end of the session, participants will be able to:

    • Differentiate bias, stereotype, prejudice and discrimination.
    • Understand the sources of bias.
    • Reflect on their biases.
    • Recognize workplace behaviours and decisions that bias may influence
    • Apply strategies to manage the effects of unconscious bias in the workplace.
    • Recognize how organizational culture is formed and influenced by the members.
    • Identify how our own diversity dimensions can contribute to our biases and impact on organizational culture.
    • Develop practical strategies to mitigate our biases.
    • Understand how to be an effective ally in the workplace, contribute to reducing diversity debt, and foster an inclusive culture.
