😮 Crescendo has three learning journeys: Learning DEI Foundations, Understanding People’s Identities, and Making Change in My Workplace. Each journey has its own regional topics to choose from. A short scenario on the next slide will point you to the right journey for you!
In Slack, you can select your journey and customize your topics and regions — a trifecta of a perfect personalization! 🎊
Read the scenario:
You’re on a review committee and several members argue against a woman’s promotion because she’s not “seen as a leader,” even though her team delivers outstanding results. Then, one manager draws attention to how she and her team deliver strong performance, and how this is a demonstration of her effectiveness as a leader. The manager talks about how we should try to avoid “performance” and “attribution bias.”
After the meeting, what would you do?
A) I'll do some research to see what performance bias and attribution bias are.
B) I'd probably try to talk to other women to see if they had similar experiences.
C) I'd come up with some solutions to work to reduce biases against women in my workplace.
