Show Notes
Robin is the director and producer of cause-based documentary films at Finish Line Features and President of Unleashed Productions. Robin's award-winning film, CODE: Debugging the Gender Gap, caught the attention of the international tech industry and of policy makers and educators in Washington, DC and abroad. Robin's most recent documentary, BIAS, explores unconscious bias and how it affects us socially and in the workplace.
Show Notes:
We are all biased. Difference between implicit and explicit bias. Bias is actually part of a survival instinct. Like-me bias is when we are more comfortable with people who are like us. We can all take the implicit association test online. Controlling bias is harder than you think. Exposing yourself to new experiences can change preconceived notions.
