The second of NERC's four-part Diversity, Equity & Inclusion Training Series for recycling and solid waste management offers a practical approach to identifying and addressing our unconscious biases and the negative impacts they have in the workplace; as well as providing strategies for inclusion.  

The training will feature two speakers—Nidhi Turakhia Executive Vice President of Allied Alloys and Willie Johnson, CEO of Willie Johnson Communications. The presenters will lay the groundwork for the training by defining unconscious bias,  helping us to recognize our personal identity and its influence on our biases, raising our awareness about the impact our biases have on our and our co-workers' work performances, and developing strategies for inclusion and implementing a DE&I program in the workplace and in our personal lives.
