Decoding Microaggressions—Understanding Their Impact on Workplace Communication

In an increasingly diverse workplace, gaining a deeper understanding of communication patterns between different groups and identities is crucial. Understanding the complexities of microaggressions is essential for fostering inclusive and effective communication. In this session, we will look at the impact of microaggressions and explore practical strategies to navigate these challenges successfully. Using relatable workplace examples, we will uncover nuances, underlying dynamics, and implicit biases that perpetuate these subtle (and often unintentional) slights and offenses to equip participants with practical insights to better recognize, address, and mitigate microaggressions.

This On-Demand program is available for access until April 30, 2025.

Flying on Autopilot—Understanding Unconscious Bias

Our brains are amazing. They pilot our movement, actions, and decisions throughout the day without us having to remember how to perform every action, execute every task, and express every idea. From birth, our brains are taking in and processing information, both through practice and through observation. Over time, we develop the ability to perform, understand, and navigate complex tasks in every area of our lives. This automaticity of actions and behaviors is also true of perceptions, interpretations, and decision making. In this program, we will take a closer look at how these automatic patterns of thinking are formed and impact the decision we make day-to-day and walk through a framework for identifying then disrupting our autopilot thinking, so that we can be more aware and intentional in our workplace interactions and decision making.

Navigating the Gap—Successfully Working in a Multigenerational world

We live and work in a multigenerational society. There are currently five generations that often work in the same office. The different generations can pose challenges if we don’t seek to understand perspectives of each other. This session will explore the generational characteristics and challenge the stereotypes that can cause harmful bias.

Unconscious Bias

Unconscious biases are the biases that everyone has, that live in the dark recesses of the human brain. These biases are grown in each individual and can greatly influence the day-to-day decisions that are made both at home and at work.
