Unconscious Bias Training - taking control of business decisions and enhancing diversity by mitigating unconscious bias Unconscious Bias is the biggest disabler of diversity, and number one enemy of innovation In an era where different thinking and innovation power are key to secure bottom- line results, our unconscious preferences for people who are like us severely challenge our intentions to create diversified and inclusive work places. Therefore, understanding our own unintended preferences, enables us to take full control of business decisions, harness the potential of diversity and create innovative teams. But to do so, we must become aware of our unconscious bias. We are happy to invite you to participate in this half-day seminar for people who want to: Accelerate diversity and innovation Improve financial results by creating a culture of inclusion Attract and retain the most talented people from a diverse work force Reduce employee turn-over A bit about what we are known for: For 14 years LIVING INSTITUTE has been known to create lasting impactful changes in mindsets and behaviours by infusing diversity intelligence – and the common denominator has been to avoid the minefields of unconscious biases.

Unconscious Bias is the biggest disabler of diversity, and number one enemy of innovation In an era where different thinking and innovation power are key to secure bottom-line results, our unconscious preferences for people who are like us severely challenge our intentions to create diversified and inclusive work places. Therefore, understanding our own unintended preferences, enables us to take full control of business decisions, harness the potential of diversity and create innovative teams. But to do so, we must become aware of our unconscious bias.

What is ‘unconscious bias’? Our brain automatically tells us that we are safe with people who look, think and act similar to us. That was our survival trick on the savannah and still is usefull most of the time today. The brain uses short-cuts to navigate an incredible amount of information which leads us to make snap decisions about who we prefer and who we avoid. These automatic preferences and prejudices are what we call ‘biases’. As such, unconscious bias is the #1 contributor to a homogenous work environment and sameness thinking, thus a disabler of diversity and an enemy of innovation.
