Product Description

Proven Results | 3x Increase in Bias Acceptance | Measure Your Organization’s Positive Change

Through powerful examples of common “microaggressions,” this course reminds managers that until they and their team members do the work of identifying and challenging biases, efforts to create a culture of equity, inclusion and respect are likely to fall short.

Unintentional Still Hurts: Overcoming Unconscious Bias can help your organization:

•	Measure change in employees' acceptance of bias while also providing a way to compare your organization's bias acceptance level with others nationally.
•	Overcome resistance and misconceptions by giving the science behind bias and portraying how bias and microaggressions hurt people—even when unintentional.
•	Immediately minimize the impact of implicit bias through activities that encourage personal reflection and enable learners to recognize and challenge their biases.
•	Inspire positive change (not fear and avoidance) by reminding learners that while biases may lead us to say or do the wrong thing, these mistakes (when handled correctly) can generate meaningful dialogue and increased understanding.
•	Encourage people to be allies with instruction on how to speak up on behalf of another person when you witness explicit or implicit bias or microaggression.
•	Educate managers on their role in creating a culture of respect and give them a practical way to handle employee concerns regarding microaggressions and disrespectful conduct.

Follow-up Unconscious Bias Training: Bias and STEP Revisited

Designed to be taken in the months following training with this Unintentional Still Hurts: Overcoming Unconscious Bias course, this 10-minute supplemental training:

• Reinforces bias understanding by addressing the difference between implicit and explicit bias.

• Demonstrates the harmful impact of explicit bias, using a new transgender employee scenario.

• Gives a refresher on applying the STEP (Stop & Think, Explore, Prepare) strategy to overcome bias.

The Bias and STEP Revisited course measures learners' acceptance of bias over time, reinforcing the longevity of the initial unconscious bias training. Learner engagement is measured during the course and turned into aggregated data which is then converted into insights available on a dashboard.
