What Your Colleagues Say:
“I enjoyed the course. I think it did a great job of naming what stereotype threat is, what some concrete examples look like, and how to manage it in the workplace and to help others who might be experiencing it.”
“An excellent and unexpectedly valuable experience.”
“I thought this was extremely insightful and not something they let people talk about. I actually had never had a learning experience about this and felt like it is something that I will think about going forward…”
We all want to show up at our best and bring out the best in our colleagues.
Hundreds of studies have shown that our performance and well-being can be strongly affected by being aware (consciously or unconsciously) that a stereotype about a group we belong to might affect the way others see us. Simply put, we fear that an unfair stereotype will be applied to us, even though we may not be consciously aware of that fear at the time.
This experience is called identity threat or, more commonly, stereotype threat.
Research in a wide variety of settings and situations has shown that stereotype threat is prevalent, can affect anyone, and has surprisingly powerful negative effects.
