Our implicit assumptions that lead to bias have been practiced over a lifetime. It is unrealistic to believe that training programs focused on self awareness and self management will be enough to change these deeply rooted patterns. Reducing the impact of implicit biases that minimize others will only occur if we all learn to influence change within the realities of bias.

It is easier for us to see bias at play in others vs. in ourselves.  That is why it is called implicit bias. What might happen if we got better at recognizing bias and influencing positive change when we notice it at play? How do we keep bias in check? How do we influence change when we often don’t see our own biases? Breaking Thru Bias™ provides you with a framework for how to influence change when bias occurs.

Implicit bias is not easy to fight. Breaking Thru Bias is a development journey that will educate you on how bias happens, inspire you to take action to influence positive change and provide you with the skills to adapt, educate and engage when you experience and hear biased comments that negatively impact others.

  • How do we influence within the realities of bias?
  • How do we influence positive change in a world filled with implicit bias?
  • How do we keep bias in check?
  • How do we reduce the negative impact of bias?

Biased comments and actions are usually completely unintentional.  Our ability to influence when bias occurs creates the possibility for change. When you see it… what do you say and do?
