Disrupting Bias Critical

From a new report from Ogilvy* on disrupting bias: “…. we can understand how educating staff about bias can be helpful, but the new model helps us recognize that simply teaching people about bias or offering training isn’t enough. We must disrupt those biases in order to truly affect change.” And of course, this is why our video, Defeating Unconscious Bias, is so important!

Read the article about the report.

*Ogilvy sponsored the Center for Talent Innovation’s New Disrupting Bias Report, which was released July 12, 2017.
