the situation

  • Organisation may be diverse -- racially, ethnically, personal orientation perspective -- but how inclusive is your organisational culture?

  • Unconscious biases are the stereotypes, both positive and negative, that exist in our subconsciousness and affect our behaviours.

  • Bias are the quick judgments and assessments we make - influenced by our own background, experiences and environment.

the solution

  • Today, the term “Unconscious Bias” is mainstream - explored how these biases affect conscious leadership and corporate decision making.

  • Demonstrated how creating an “inclusive” culture leads to engaged employees, diverse and creative solutions, and most importantly business growth.

a series of workshops that included:

  • What is ”Unconscious Bias” and who has them.

  • Interactive exercises to create understanding biases and where they come from.

  • Conscious decision-making for systems and process to build an inclusive culture.

  • The role of ‘inclusive’ leadership

  • Discuss the business cases for how inclusion creates business growth and engaged employees.

the outcomes

  • Generated awareness of biases

  • Highlighted inclusion is the responsibility of the entire organisation

  • Self awareness and opportunities to change behaviour
