Unconscious Bias
Uncover unknown feelings of unfairness and favouritism to foster an inclusive and equal workplace.
Description
Our thoughts and feelings are part of what makes us human. However they have the ability to influence how we treat those around us – unintentionally discriminating against some and favouring others.
Identifying and tackling unconscious bias in the workplace helps put a stop to treating colleagues differently, and instead, creates a culture of belonging which then improves decision-making, encourages innovation, attracts more talent and boosts productivity.
In this introductory training, we will help participants better understand what unconscious bias is and why it happens in the workplace.
LEARNING OUTCOMES:
✅ Define unconscious bias and how it occurs in the workplace
✅ Reflect on personal unconscious bias and its origins
✅ Determine strategies for increasing awareness and reducing bias
✅ Relate current case studies involving bias to our everyday experiences
