• Pause at specified points in the program, per the accompanying Facilitator Guide. Ask the group the suggested questions. Add your own as well, if you’d like.
• Discuss the topics addressed or the issues raised, adding observations, experiences, and insights, as appropriate.
• End each session with enlightened leaders who have a greater awareness of how their day-to-day behaviors impact others.

As a leader, manager, or supervisor, you have a direct impact on how respected, welcomed, and valued members of your team feel. The way you interact with them every day has a cumulative effect that either fosters an inclusive environment… or does not. In this module, the first in the Inclusive Leader series, you’ll explore why inclusive leadership matters and the role you play.  ​

Unconscious Bias (Part 2) - Interrupting Your Unconscious Biases
13 minutes

The overarching question for each of us is not "Am I biased?" but rather "What biases do I hold and how can I interrupt them?" Unconscious biases are a part of being human and there is no way we can simply turn them off. However, there are steps that we can take to mitigate our biases and prevent them from hindering our decisions in the workplace. In this module, you’ll explore five steps you can take right now to begin interrupting your biases.

Answers to frequently asked questions...

How long is each course?
We are big proponents of bite-sized learning resources. Courses average about 12 minutes each.

Can we have links to our policies or similar added to the courses?
Yes. We can customize any element of the Inclusive Leader courses to include firm-specific information, links, resources, video, terminology, etc. 

​Can I review the courses to see if this is a fit for our firm?
Yes.  Just let us know and we'll grant you temporary access to the complete Inclusive Leader series of courses.

Do you grant CLE credit for these courses toward the Diversity, Inclusion, and Elimination of Bias (and similar) requirements of many states?
We designed the series with standard CLE requirements in mind. That said, we are not a CLE provider and do not grant CLE credit ourselves. Your firm would serve as the provider-of-record, following your standard CLE processes.

What is the total duration of all courses in the series?
The total duration of all six on-demand courses is 69 minutes. If you hold one-hour facilitated blended-learning sessions using the modules as the foundation of the discussion, the total learning and discussion time could be as high as one hour for each course, for a total of 6 hours.

Where do these courses 'live'? Do you host or do we?
Our goal is to make launching Inclusive Leader courses as easy for you as possible. You have options:  Host the courses on your firm's learning management system or intranet server - or let us handle hosting for you.
