Dealing with unconscious bias and microagressions in the workplace with Nicole DaCosta

Talent Development Hot Seat podcast - Podcast tekijän mukaan Andy Storch

Kategoriat:

Not every slur is intended. A lot of times, these microaggressions are simply the product of the perpetrator’s unconscious bias developed from years of enculturation. That doesn’t mean, however, that unconscious bias and its consequent microaggressions are harmless and that we don’t have to do anything about them. In fact, a big part of fostering diversity, equity and inclusion in the workplace is doing the inner work among ourselves to identify our unconscious biases and root them out of our lives to the best of our ability. Joining Andy Storch in this difficult, but extremely necessary conversation is Nicole DaCosta, a Learning & Development leader at Brinker International, a global leader in the restaurant industry famously known for being the home of Chili’s® Grill & Bar. Nicole derives the greater part of her insights on this subject from her own experience as a black woman in corporate America. She works tirelessly to promote DEI not only at Brinker, but also by doing volunteer work for the nonprofit, Harmony Career Development Center.
