Created by Google, this workshop teaches participants to develop the confidence to promote themselves in the workplace and personal life, thereby breaking modesty norms and glass ceilings.
This program aims to:
1. Improve the motivation and self-promotion skills of women and underrepresented groups.
2. Change social perceptions and refresh the conversation around self-promotion.
Gender Bias is unequal treatment due to attitudes based on gender. At work it manifests itself in subtle ways like when women’s ideas are ignored or women are not included in meetings or discussions. Gender bias is a preference, conscious or unconscious, for working with one gender over another. Unconscious bias is incredibly hard to fix because by definition the person denies such a preference exists. That’s why changing corporate cultures is going to take a strategic grassroots approach. It starts by learning the facts.
