Introduction to Unconscious Bias

Introduction to Unconscious Bias

A 90-minute interactive online session

Most of us care deeply about fairness and making good decisions. And yet, unconscious bias still shows up in everyday judgement, often in quiet, unexpected ways.

Unconscious bias is a topic many people care about, yet often feel unsure how to engage with.

It can feel complex, uncomfortable, or difficult to talk about without fear of saying the wrong thing. This introductory session is designed to meet people right there and help make sense of why unconscious bias is so challenging to understand and address in the first place.

This 90-minute session creates space for insight, reflection, and curiosity, while offering a clear foundation for deeper learning.

Think of it as a thoughtful starting point. A moment to pause, notice, and get curious.

Where this can lead

This session is intentionally a starting point.

It is designed as a precursor to our half-day and full-day in-depth programs, where participants build skills, practise tools, and apply learning to real workplace scenarios.

Some organisations use this session as a first step before moving into deeper, in-depth programs that focus on practice, application, and sustained learning.

This session helps people decide if that next step feels right.

Spaces are limited to keep the experience meanginful.
