How to Escape or Defend Yourself When Trapped in the Unconscious Biases of Other

Have you ever considered what percentage of your impressions about others—and theirs about you—are influenced by unconscious beliefs?

Or how often your professional life and serious decisions are affected by this invisible phenomenon?

It's not difficult to spot unconscious bias in others, yet it’s often much harder to recognize such patterns within ourselves.

Various authors define unconscious bias as the unconsciously held, simplifying, and often discriminatory tendencies that occur before conscious thought even begins.

These biases are an inevitable part of our social lives, but they can also become a real burden, especially when they shape judgments, decisions, or interactions unfairly.
In our meeting, we will aim to:

1. Explore what unconscious biases are and how many different types exist (e.g., race, age, social status, etc.);
2. Analyze real-life examples to evaluate honestly whether you are tend to judge others unconsciously—or whether you yourself are often a target of such bias;
3. Review practical techniques for recognizing and protecting yourself when you realize you're being judged based on someone else’s unconscious beliefs.
