Unconscious Bias Self-Assessment Worksheet ETHC334 Complete each of the following questions and surveys to help explore your unconscious biases. Be sure to highlight or indicate your responses for each Self-Evaluation question in Parts 2 and 3. Part 1: Summary Summarize three major takeaways from the Percipio Course: Expert Insights on Unconscious Bias. Be sure to use core concepts and specific examples to help develop each 2-3 sentence response. 1. It's critical to acknowledge that we all have bias, and that we must learn to deal with it and improve on it. Understand people from various backgrounds and learn to turn assumptions into questions. 2. Keep communication channels open to gather input that can help us recognize and improve unconscious bias. Don't make snap judgments about people or groups. 3. Slow down before making a split-second decision so that you can consider all factors and avoid overlooking someone's important point of view. Developing the practice of taking your time when making decisions now will save you time and effort in the future, resulting in increased efficiency and effectiveness. Part 2: Cultural Proficiency Self-Evaluation Answer each question on a scale of 1–5, with 1 indicating the least confidence and 5 indicating the most confidence in your cultural proficiency. 1.

My scores were consistent only ones that didn’t score as high as the others would be the ones that I feel a certain way about it. 3. What specific questions made you think the most? Why? All the questions made me think a lot because it was like there really are people out here in the world that feel this way. 4.
