Please contact the EDI Centre if you would like to run the Managing unconscious bias in the workplace training in your department.
Training overview
When left unchecked, our own personal perspectives and biases can sometimes create miscommunications in the workplace. This can lead to further conflict, and impact us and all those that we work with. However, through conscious, deliberate action, we can work to understand and counteract bias in the workplace, enabling better communication and working relationships for ourselves and our colleagues.
What is covered in this course?
This course provides an action-focused perspective on countering bias in the workplace. You will have the opportunity to consider how biases and preconceptions can impact our interactions within the context of Imperial as a workplace. Through discussion and guidance, you will be able to identify key ways that you can act to prevent biases from impacting in the workplace, and help to create a more positive working environment for all.
Who is this course for?
This course is open to all staff members.
