Unconscious Bias in Talent Decisions
19 February, 2013 | (01 hr)
If you ask talent management professionals what some of their major challenges are, one of the top concerns is how to increase diversity in the pipeline and reduce bias in talent management decision making. Although corporate hiring has improved on the front end, retention and underutilization of diverse talent threatens the ability of our organizations to reflect and serve our diverse customer base. Organizations that have invested in diversity are finding that the new frontier in making a difference in filling our pipelines with diverse talent is trying to manage unconscious bias. This session will look at innovative ways on how to mitigate unconscious bias in talent decisions by providing targeted intervention to talent management decision makers
Audience: Executives responsible for Succession Management in their organizations with the majority coming from Human Resources, Leadership Development, Talent and Global Talent Management, Training and Development, Employee Development
