Identifying Systemic Bias and Unconscious Bias
This lesson explains how bias operates at individual and organizational levels and provides practical steps to identify and mitigate bias in decisions and processes.
Systemic and Unconscious Bias
Systemic bias refers to entrenched practices and structures that disadvantage certain groups in processes like hiring, promotion, and compensation.
Unconscious (implicit) bias describes automatic attitudes that influence decisions without awareness. These biases can affect decisions and opportunities.
Recognizing bias in processes: use data, diverse decision making panels, objective criteria, and regular reviews to reduce bias.
