Implicit Bias in the Workplace Guide (UC Davis - Box folder)

Access Guide- UC Davis Box folder.
Implicit biases are the underlying attitudes and stereotypes that people unconsciously attribute to another person or group of people, that affect how they understand and engage with those individuals. If you ever find yourself making a decision based on a ‘gut feeling,' you're likely experiencing implicit bias. The best way to prevent yourself from succumbing to unconscious biases is to become aware of them and take action to prevent them in your human resources practices. Doing so will help you build a more diverse and inclusive workplace. For a deeper dive take the UC Implicit Bias Series (online course).

An Equity-Minded Approach to Writing Effective External Review Letters for Tenure

and Promotion (National Center for Faculty Development & Diversity)
Activate your account (All UC ANR employees have access)
July 18
11 a.m. – Noon

Details & Registration
Senior faculty are incredibly powerful. In a two-page tenure letter, they can make or break a career. This power has an outsized impact on scholars with marginalized identities, such as Black academics, who are promoted with tenure at lower rates than their White colleagues. We suggest that this difference in tenure rates is due to an implicit, overly narrow definition of academic excellence that does not recognize all contributions that Black scholars make to their departments, institutions and academia in general.
