Women and Gender Bias: Recognizing and Reporting Gender Bias
Learning objectives
- Recognize the signs of gender bias
- Discuss the affects of gender bias
- Review how to report gender bias
Course overview
As you know, gender bias, or having stereotypical beliefs about individuals on the basis of their gender, negatively impacts the people involved and an organization as a whole. You hopefully already learned a bit about the origins of gender bias in the Understanding Gender Bias course. In this program, we'll shift our focus to how you can recognize gender bias when you see it, particularly in the workplace. We'll discuss who it affects, including people who identify as gender-nonconforming, non-binary, or gender-fluid. We'll talk about how gender bias shows up in daily interactions, and we'll go over what to do when reporting gender bias.
