Mitigating Unconscious Bias (CET only)
Contact | corporate.training@eastsussex.gov.uk |
---|---|
Target audience | All users |
Subject | Practical skills and self-development |
Course description | Our minds are geared to work efficiently; constantly using expedient short-cuts that enable us to make quick decisions and responses. Whilst we cannot ever penetrate the nuts and bolts of our mental machinery, we can recognise that these short-cuts can sometimes cloud our judgement. At worst, our biases perpetuate ageism, racism, sexism and numerous other forms of covert or overt discrimination and persecution. This one-day course invites participants to query their own perceptions and perspectives and examine the impact on their relationships and working practises. The trainer is an experienced psychotherapist, debriefer and coach. Due to the participatory nature of the course, the maximum number of participants is 10 and a degree of openness and readiness to participate in the programme is required. |
Training objectives |
The course will be especially useful for those with responsibility for recruitment, appraisals, strategy, policy & process development and organisational functions. |
