We may aspire to be judgement-free, but unconscious bias neuroscience research says that is not how our brains work. Even those of us who are used to working multiculturally are not immune to unconscious bias. Between the Glass Curtain, generational gaps and lingering cultural fears or resentment, we benefit from recognizing and managing the unconscious bias we all have.
This webinar, led by guest speaker Marilyn O'Hearne, will ask questions such as:
- “Is being judgment-free really possible?”
- “How do we recognize our cultural judgments?”
- “What actions can we take to appropriately manage these judgements so they do not limit or sabotage our success?”
Marilyn will lead us through 2 pauses designed to refresh and re-focus our minds and then move us from judgment (which can sabotage our success) to increased awareness, impact, influence and income.
You will walk away from this webinar with the ability to:
• Develop a refreshing, focus-centering practice which increases conscious awareness
• Discover how your unconscious bias may be sabotaging success by contributing to costly conflict, loss of business and limiting impact
• Learn a quick way to uncover and update bias to build trust
• Begin to develop strategies to manage unconscious bias and expand your impact
ICF Competencies are all covered in this webinar, with particular focus on Establishing Trust & Intimacy and Coaching Presence.
