Delivered by Equality and Diversity specialist Vanessa Boon, this interactive webinar will explore how to counteract unconscious bias across society.

The online event will provide a platform for those attending to explore unconscious bias in more detail, offering techniques for courageous conversations which will assist in challenging inappropriate remarks, potential banter and micro-aggressions.  It will deep-dive into the different types of subconscious bias and how to spot and mitigate them, explore the Halo and Horns effect, and how internalise biases inhibit self-esteem, confidence and performance.
