Shifting Mental Images of Women in the Workplace

Women in the workplace often face barriers such as bias, limited advancement opportunities, or unequal treatment. These challenges can reduce engagement and slow organizational progress. This microlesson provides skills training to help employees recognize gender bias, support women’s contributions, and build a more equitable workplace culture.

Microlesson Description

In this microlesson, we look into our internal perspectives regarding gender roles. When women break those barriers in male-dominated fields, it provides an opportunity to create new, realistic images and perspectives that open the door for all other women and new possibilities. From a new TikTok influencer to female gamers and women leadership in the workplace, this microlesson educates your workforce that we shouldn’t view everything one way. So, let’s break the bias and shift our perspective together. When we allow ourselves to open up the lens and see each individual woman for who they truly are and take the bias out of our mindset, we create a more equitable society.
