Description

We all operate under the influence of biases every moment of every day. It does not make us a bad person, it actually just makes us human. It is the way our brain works efficiently. Virtually every important decision we make in life is influenced by these biases, and the more they remain unconscious, the less likely we are to make the best decisions we are able to make.

By understanding unconscious bias we can learn to work with it and reduce its ability to dominate our decision making. By attending this workshop you will not only have a better understanding of what you think, but of how you think.

Here is what we will cover:

  • What is bias and why is it so essential to us as human beings?
  • How does the brain process bias?
  • How does unconscious bias affect some of the most fundamental aspects of our lives?
  • How can we learn about our own individual and collective biases?
  • How can we reprogram our responses so we can make better choices for ourselves, our organisations and our communities.

*Lunch, morning and afternoon tea will be provided.
