Discussion Prompts: After completing the exercise, reflect upon a situation where you became aware of your own implicit bias or developed awareness of someone else’s implicit bias.

· How has your awareness of implicit bias evolved?

· What is one leadership strategy that you could employ to demonstrate cultural humility and positively impact the situation to advance diversity, equity, and inclusion?
