AWARENESS
By understanding yourself, others, and the environment in which you operate, you can make better decisions and build stronger relationships. Awareness also helps you recognize your own biases and limitations, which can help you avoid making decisions based on unconscious bias and promote a more equitable and inclusive workplace.
Start developing your skills in Awareness by following the microlearning you find below. Microlearning refers to quick, short-form pieces of learning content, usually lasting between two to twelve minutes. It can come in many formats, including text, video, and graphics. The bottom line that makes a content piece microlearning is that it’s bite-sized, focuses on a specific topic, and is easy for learners to digest. Because of its nature, microlearning is the ideal solution to keep up with today’s mobile-driven digital audiences with shorter attention spans.
