Unconscious bias: see it, name it, tackle it

After a training, everyone knows what bias is. But on Monday, little changes. This e-learning gives you insight and two tools you use straight away, in every decision about people: who you hire, who gets the floor, who gets the opportunity.

You can't switch bias off. You can learn to deal with it.

Everyone has bias, including smart and well-meaning people. Our brain takes thousands of shortcuts every day. Handy when you choose a sandwich, risky when you choose a candidate.

One awareness training doesn't change that for good. What does work: learning to slow down at the right moments, giving bias a name, and raising it respectfully. That's exactly what you practise in this e-learning.

What you'll learn, in three building blocks

1 · Accept

How your brain makes fast choices (System 1 and 2), the four moments with the highest risk of bias, and four myths that hold you back.

2 · Name

Ten biases at work with the KNOW YOUR BIAS exercise, and your own Trusted 10: who do you trust, and who are you missing because of it?

3 · Tackle

The PAUSE tool to catch your own bias, and the 3 B's to raise bias in others without attacking anyone.

Your action plan

Concrete steps for today, 1 week, 30 days and 90 days, so insight turns into behaviour.

Who is it for?

  • Managers who decide on hiring, appraisals and opportunities.
  • HR and L&D professionals who want a workshop to stick.
  • Anyone who wants to make fairer decisions about colleagues, candidates and clients.

How it works

  • Online, at your own pace, about 2 hours.
  • Short lessons with exercises: grab a pen and paper.
  • Instant access in English and Dutch, and you can come back to the tools before every important decision.
  • Based on research (including Kahneman, Banaji & Greenwald) and on the workshops UPOP runs in organisations.
