This 3.5 hour (.35 PPO/PS CEUs) interactive webinar will focus on ways humans make decisions which will give you the ability to make decisions that are more aligned with your intentions for your work and your life. We will discuss Nobel Prize winning theories of the mind. We will explore various biases and how they affect our decision making. This is important because our decisions affect our interpreting work and the people we work with. You will walk away with tools to be able to identify your decision-making processes and avoid some of the ways you make erroneous decisions. As we unpack our biases and make better decisions, we are then able to be stronger allies with our Deaf/DB/HH clients and/or our clients that come from groups that have been traditionally marginalized. The information you gain in this webinar will aid you in better aligning your decisions with your goals for your work and yourself personally.
Educational Objectives:
- CREATE a mind map to clarify where some of your decision-making is rooted.
- IDENTIFY new theories of the mind and identify how these theories lead to better decision-making.
- COMPARE 3 types of biases that affect your decision making and discuss how these might affect our clients and other individuals from groups that have been traditionally marginalized.
- SUMMARIZE how the knowledge you have gained in this webinar will lead to making decisions that are more aligned with your goals for your work and life.
