Are You Biased? I Am | Kristen Pressner

What do you do when you realize you have a bias, even against yourself? Kristen Pressner is the Global Head of Human Resources at a multinational firm, and a tireless advocate for, and promoter of, women in the workplace. In this enlightening talk, Kristen explores how we can recognize our own hidden, irrational biases — and keep them from limiting us. The intro animation was produced as a collaboration between TEDxBasel and the Hochschule Luzern. The video was created by Fabian Schaeublin.

Implicit Bias - How It Effects Us And How We Push Through | Melanie Funchess

This talk was given at a local TEDx event, produced independently of the TED Conferences. Everyone makes assumptions about people they don’t know. Melanie will teach us to recognize these assumptions and work toward a common understanding.

She is also involved in several community based coalitions and organizations such as the African American Leadership Development Program, African American Health Coalition, Black Women’s Leadership Forum, Greater Rochester Parent Leadership Training Institute, the Mental Health Promotion Task Force, and the Neighborhood Consortium for Youth Justice.

She is a devoted wife and mother of four children (two boys and two girls) three of whom experience mental/ emotional challenges. Her mission is to use her knowledge of systems and communities to create opportunities for youth and families to be empowered and successful and to break down the walls that separate us and build bridges to unite us as one community where every child is our own, we have front porch neighborhoods, and we use language that respects everyone.

The Importance of Mindset in Policing | Chip Huth

In the wake of recent high-profile events, police departments and the communities they serve are facing many complex challenges. There are currently many options on the table for meeting the evolving expectations of our citizens; however, behavioral prescriptions, revised legal mandates, and technological applications each have limited ability to affect the law enforcement culture in meaningful ways. What is needed is a shift in the way the police see themselves in relationship to their respective communities. What follows this change in mindset are opportunities for law enforcement to engage and partner with the community to build relationships that can be leveraged to instill safety, security and hope.

Charles “Chip” Huth is a Captain and watch commander with the Kansas City, Mo. Police Department. During his nearly quarter-century career, he has executed or supervised more than 2,500 high-risk tactical actions. He is past President of the National Law Enforcement Training Center, a non-profit organization in Kansas City, and an Army veteran. He is a widely known expert in police tactics and provides police training to agencies throughout the United States. Mr. Huth is a sought after speaker in law enforcement and corporate venues. In 2008, Mr. Huth became a licensed trainer of the Arbinger Institute’s programs within the Kansas City PD. Since 2010, he has been deployed to Arbinger’s clients as a master facilitator and senior consultant to help organizations and their leaders eliminate conflict and create high-trust, high-performance cultures. He is co-author of the book Unleashing the Power of Unconditional Respect – Transforming Law Enforcement and Police Training.
