EVERYDAY BIAS WORKSHOP FOR THE HEALTH PROFESSIONS Thursday, June 25, 2015 Caribe Hilton in San Juan, Puerto Rico Overview Everyone has bias. It’s just part of our human nature, a survival mechanism. The challenge comes when you aren’t aware of the impact it has on your effectiveness. The key to thoughtful choice is developing your capacity to identify invisible assumptions and patterns of thinking. The AAMC has partnered with Cook Ross Inc to present a course on unconscious bias for health professions audiences. Cook Ross has developed an evidence-‐based, dynamic one-‐day workshop in which you will explore how your assumptions impact choices around communication, innovation, hiring, engagement, management, promotion, marketing, and building organizational culture. This unique professional development opportunity is aimed at diversity leaders in academic medicine and other professionals in healthcare and biomedical research. Participants will receive a Participant Guide as well as a takeaway wallet card. Who Should Attend?
