Challenging Unconscious Bias

About Unconscious Bias

Unconscious bias is when favouritism or prejudice influences our actions and perceptions, and while personal biases are commonplace and may not be inherently bad, we must challenge them regularly to support positive change and workplace diversity.

Interactive Training

In the interactive training session, facilitated by Diversity Australia, team members discussed common preconceptions and the impacts they can have on personal preferences and decision-making.

At the end of the session, participants developed a better understanding of the prevalence of bias and gained an insight into the link between diversity and workplace productivity.
Feedback from the 74 participants who attended the training was overwhelmingly positive. Future training will assist team members in developing practical strategies to challenge their biases and minimise workplace barriers.
