Global #PeopleSkillsChat Topic: Examine Bias

Bias exists in everyone. We all have bias. Yet we don’t always understand the full extent it has on our lives and others. In a previous chat we discussed ending racism. Out of that chat came many questions about bias in general.

Please join us in global #PeopleSkills on Twitter this Sun. July 12th to examine bias. What is it? Why does it exist? What hidden power does it have when we aren’t aware of it? How does it impact our own lives, other’s lives, and this world? Most importantly, how can we counteract its negative effects?
