In this inclusion and belonging session, Buki Mosaku cracks the code for calling out unconscious bias in the workplace and equips staff, people managers and leaders with toolkits, skills and strategies that show them: what to do, how to think, what to say, when to say it and the way to say it, so that we can organically fast track increases in representation of minorities/marginalised groups in senior and high profile roles and put career-stifling bias and related underrepresentation behind us once and for all.
What if you could illuminate career-stifling unconscious bias in the moment and recondition the perpetrator without being seen as hostile, a non-team player, bigoted, having a chip on your shoulder, or projecting your own bias?
How can you address career-stifling and conflict-generating bias that comes from your boss, staff, or colleagues without losing your composure? Drawing on knowledge and insight gained over two decades of closely observing human behaviour in different corporate settings as a communication and workplace bias expert, Buki provides a proven, practical toolkit for navigating all forms of workplace bias - whether related to race/ethnicity, sexual orientation, gender identity, disability, age, sex, and so on—through his ground-breaking IDU methodology. Its tools empower minorities, marginalised groups, and the majority to effortlessly dismantle bias whenever they sense it, without inciting unwanted results.
