Unconscious biases affect our perceptions, decisions, and interactions every day. How do we address biases if we don't know about them? In this talk, you will learn how to recognize and counter the biases that play a part in interviewing, creating a product, and day-to-day interactions. We'll go in depth on biases beyond sexism and racism and hopefully help the world become a more magical place!
