Overview

Info

Become a more effective and inclusive manager with our ‘Bias at Work’ training.  We all have bias: a judgement or opinion that’s based on our own thoughts about someone or something, and not reality or facts. Biases are natural (we can’t help having them) but they shouldn’t go unchallenged.

This course delves into the psychology of bias and its effects on decision-making, team dynamics and organisational culture. You’ll acquire the tools and insights needed to identify and confront unconscious biases, fostering a workplace where every voice is valued.

With interactive exercises, case studies, and open discussions, you’ll leave this course with a deeper understanding of how bias impacts your decision-making and a clear action plan to drive positive change within your team.

"Unconscious bias might not go away completely, but by understanding and identifying it, you can be more certain the decisions you make are not taking place in a blind spot."
- Forbes
