​Overview

In the voluntary sector we meet many people from different backgrounds. Unconscious bias operates without our being aware of it and this affects the way that we think and make decisions. This session will help you become more self-aware and explain how to use conscious inclusion practices to address your own biases.

Topics covered:

• Explore how bias affects decision making.
• Examine where bias comes from and how it manifests itself.
• Evaluate your own biases.
• Learn how to start to overcome your biases through Conscious Inclusion.
