How much of your daily activity is conscious?
Implicit Bias is Unconscious
Our Brains are Wired to take Short Cuts
​​What if we could use more of our brain's capacity?
​
What if we could connect to openness and trust and let go of defensiveness, self-doubt and fear?
Implicit bias does not have to rule.
Can you stop something that is unconscious? No. However, you can:
​​
-
raise self-awareness to mitigate the harm of implicit bias
-
become more mindful
-
employ pre-encounter and post encounter strategies to disrupt implicit bias
-
consciously connect and build community with people different than you
-
talk about implicit bias in a community of your choice to raise your inclusion competency
-
commit to the work of inclusion
-
have better relationships
​
Explicit bias is known. Implicit or unconscious bias is unknown. If you have a brain you are bias. Whether these biases are true attitudes or culturally learned associations, they undermine and harm people, your organization, and society at large.
​
Implicit bias limits an organization's ability to find, develop, and leverage great talent. Implicit bias can affect everything from parenting, to how we lead, to organizational competitiveness.
​
Disrupting and mitigating implicit bias is possible. Conscious Connection, a Mindful Journey to Inclusion is a program that starts with the research that we are all bias. Conscious Connection provides experiential activities and research to slow our brains down to intentionally lead inclusively.
