Are you a business owner or professional looking to improve your decision-making abilities in general, so that you can arrive at logical, objective conclusions? If so, this course is for you. Diversity and inclusion have become centre-stage considerations for profitable and productive businesses.

This course provides clear information about various unconscious pitfalls in decision-making, in the context of diversity and inclusion, as well as in other contexts. The course kicks off by introducing some key terms and the definition of unconscious bias. Over the lectures, we will be discussing how successful businesses have implemented strategies and practices that maintain a healthy and inclusive environment, liberated from unconscious biases, and you'll learn how to apply these solutions in your own organisation. We'll also cover vital topics such as cognitive and internalised biases, while also touching on various methods we can use in order to prevent prejudice and discrimination. We'll then take a closer look at the role bias plays in the decision-making process and how to challenge established perceptions, transforming them into objective and logical approaches. By the end of the course, you will possess valuable knowledge on how to prevent various forms of bias and you'll be confident and self-assured in your capabilities and skills, while also being ready to implement what you have learnt.
