What would it mean to your organization if you could avoid and overcome the dysfunction that results from gender and racial inequality? What if you could address the not-so-hidden biases that keep us from living and working from a place of integrity? Imagine if we could knock down those barriers and work together more effectively – giving and receiving support, training, referrals – and actually LIKING one another in a productive and collaborative work environment.
Learn to uncover deep-rooted limiting beliefs and pre-suppositions and create a meaningful dialogue to reveal the solutions that can be immediately and effectively applied to your organization.
Topics to be explored during the program:
- Everyone experiences bias
- Raising awareness of our own personal biases

By understanding how to overcome our natural biases, we can create an organization with strong morale, empowered staff at all levels, creating a safe, open and honest work environment that will attract top talent and surely have a positive impact on your organization’s profitability.
