In this episode, Andrea Butler interviews Cassandra de Iongh about reducing unconscious bias.
The key takeaway from this episode:
We need to be intentional about reducing unconscious bias. Sometimes we exclude more when we are trying to be inclusive. It’s important to create a safe space where people feel comfortable having difficult conversations.
When reducing bias from the hiring process, consider:
Using free tools online to remove biased language from job ads.
Limiting the number of job requirements to the “must-haves” rather than a laundry list of “nice to have.”
Training hiring managers on interview practices that reduce bias.
