Filter Shift: How Effective People See the World

Work through the biases that hinder your ability to effectively communicate across race, genders, generations, sexual orientation, and political ideology. Filter Shift describes the notion of unconscious filters: how we create them, how we perceive the world through them, and how they control us. The vast majority of us are persistently held back by our unconscious biases and misperceptions, even with the best of intentions. Filter Shift explores the unseen dynamics that get in the way, providing a series of blueprints for success. "Using a language that is easy to adapt and models that drive home concepts, Filter Shift provides a foundation for understanding how our filters impact our interactions, and thereby, our ability to perform and interact with others in a positive way." —Myrna Marofsky, author of The Art of Diversity Training "In the quest for increasing cultural competence for workplace effectiveness, it is rare to find a skillful, articulate coach like Sara Taylor." —Donna Rae Sheffert, Leadership and Management Consultant
