Unconscious Bias causes leaders to categorise, compare, and make assumptions that reinforce their own, usually unintentional, favouritisms, prejudices, and preconceptions.
Leadership bias is human, but can have serious consequences. By bringing hidden biases to light, and challenging them in ourselves and others, we can begin to cultivate a truly diverse and inclusive culture.
Through thought-provoking individual and team activities, and facilitated group discussions, participants will leave the workshop armed with a wealth of actionable insights. The workshop encompasses three modules:
Understanding Unconscious Bias
Engage with the question, 'what is unconscious bias?'
Understand the impact of unconscious bias throughout the employee lifecycle.
Improve awareness of individual and organisational biases.
Inclusive Culture
Learn more about the benefits of a diverse and inclusive organisation, including better decision-making, reputation, profitability, and innovation.
Explore how to promote an inclusive culture.
Inclusive Leadership
Learn how to role-model inclusive behaviours.
Explore how to challenge bias in ourselves and others.
Create a blueprint for a more inclusive approach to leadership, including individual and collective accountability measures.
