Rise & Thrive: Managing Bias for Better Business Decisions
2026-09-16 08:30 - 09:30 (America/New_York) | Cranberry Country Chamber Office, 9 Clayton Road, Middleboro, MA, United States
Rise & Thrive
This month’s topic: Managing Bias for Better Business Decisions
Our brains constantly filter information to help us make quick decisions—but those shortcuts can also introduce unconscious bias. In this session, participants explore how bias forms, how it shows up in everyday workplace interactions and decisions, and why it matters for business effectiveness and inclusion. You’ll gain practical strategies for recognizing moments of bias, slowing down automatic reactions, and making more intentional, fair, and informed choices. This workshop is designed for professionals who want to improve judgment, relationships, and outcomes at work.
