Unconscious Bias In The Workplace
We all make decisions based on a combination of knowledge, experience, personality, and needs. However, our decisions are also influenced by unseen preferences, such as where we grew up or lessons learned in childhood. These influences may lead us to favour one thing over another or prefer one person over another based not on qualifications but on appearances, culture, or ‘something you just can’t put your finger on’. This favouritism often stems from unconscious bias.
Unconscious bias, if left unaddressed, can result in unfair discrimination and harm workplaces through biased hiring practices, a lack of diversity, a tarnished reputation, and missed opportunities to recruit the best candidates. Our comprehensive Unconscious Bias In The Workplace workshop is designed to help your team identify and mitigate biases that affect decision-making, hiring practices, and team dynamics. By addressing these biases, your organisation can thrive in a more inclusive, diverse, equal, and productive work environment.
