Please join us for RCA's 2016 4th Quarter Meeting:

Implicit Bias and Compensation

Implicit bias refers to unconscious prejudiced judgment and social behavior that shows up in every area of our lives.  Yes, even in Compensation! Dr. Brian Chad Starks' workshop will explore the causes of implicit bias, how it shows up in our work and what we can do to prevent it from having lasting impact on our compensation decisions.
