The Unconscious Mind: Implicit Bias
Research demonstrates that 90% of the time our decision-making occurs subconsciously, meaning our brain is forming perceptions and making decisions based on our beliefs and past experiences. Unless we make a conscious choice to explore our decision-making process, our conclusions often include biases and limit our ability to think outside the box, consider alternative solutions, work collaboratively with diverse populations, and treat people equitably.Â
- Understand the meaning and origins of implicit bias.Â
