This registration page is for Non-Members. HBA members can secure your seat for eight hours of FREE, live global programming by clicking here or the button below:
Join the HBA Women of Color affinity group as we celebrate International Women's Day and we present two dynamic senior female leaders changing the narrative for women and people of color in the healthcare industry. This event will feature Roberta Duncan, Seqirus' VP, mRNA Program Lead, and Jewel Jones, Real Chemistry's Health Equity & Justice Practice Leader.
This live, interactive panel discussion will build awareness around the impact of bias on WoC/PoC in the workplace and in healthcare, through shared stories. As racial and ethnic diversity increases across our nation, it is imperative that all people intentionally confront and find ways to mitigate our biases.
Key points
- Implicit bias is the unconscious collection of stereotypes and attitudes that we develop toward certain groups of people, which can affect our relationships and care decisions.
- You can overcome implicit bias by first discovering your blind spots and then actively working to dismiss stereotypes and attitudes that affect your interactions.
- While individual action is helpful, organizations and institutions must also work to eliminate systemic problems.
