This program explores how biases create obstacles to fairness in recruiting, mentoring and promoting attorneys in law firms, leading to costly attrition rates and reduced profitability; the positive benefits of diversity; and how to build in training and management techniques that reduce biases and provide all attorneys at the firm an equal opportunity for success. Attendees will learn to recognize the most common types of biases and microagressions, how those biases can harm the firm financially, and research tested training programs and policies to reduce bias and improve attorney satisfaction.
