Overview

Our backgrounds and experiences shape the decisions we make every day. While we may not be aware of it, our unconscious biases influence the choices we make, which can have negative repercussions in terms of our behaviours towards others and can affect business outcomes. 

Objectives

To gain a better awareness and understanding of our unconscious biases is the first step to better, more inclusive behaviours. Using a combination of the latest research, relevant case studies and discussion, this training is designed to help people recognise their own unconscious bias, understand how it may impact decision making and take action to change their approach.  

Learning outcomes

• A clear understanding of what unconscious bias is 
• Reflection on personal biases and understanding common biases  
• Understanding the various ways that unconscious bias impacts decisions and affects outcomes  
• Examining our own behaviour and bias triggers and how they manifest through language or behaviours  
• Understanding the conscious choices we can make to mitigate bias for ourselves, our teams and our organisation  

Who should attend? 

This course is suitable for everyone within the organisation, as we all have biases that determine how we interact with others. It may be preferable for managers to attend a separate session, for reasons of confidentiality.
