Workshops & webinars - more than unconscious bias trainings
More than unconscious bias trainings
Unconscious biases have a wide range of effects - in the private sphere as well as in companies. They are difficult to grasp at first, and there are few ways to approach them.
Events on this topic are usually held exclusively in companies, usually for a selected group. It is important to bring this topic closer to as many people as possible!
Mind your business offers both - various formats for companies as well as public lectures, workshops and webinars. These go beyond "classic" unconscious bias trainings, especially through more breadth and a strong focus on implementation.
They are an important, but not the only, element of the de-biasing concept.
Key elements of all events
Mind your business offers workshops which:
- convey enjoyment and interest on the subject,
- are based on solid foundations,
- offer interaction and variety in order to gain experiences,
- trigger new ideas and grow perspectives ,
- focus on your individual implementation.
What do participants of previous events say?
De-biasing - get familiar with a complex topic step by step
Mind your business has been offering a wide range of workshops on the topic of unconscious biases or de-biasing over the years.
Consciously making better decisions - the central theme of the company - means an intensive confrontation with unconsciously effective biases.
Choose from the available options, whatever fits your purpose best.
Public and in-house Workshops
The offering includes both public and in-house workshops. You find all relevant information about the current offering directly in the respective workshop descriptions.
It is of course possible to adapt a public workshop format individually for your organisation, so that your concrete needs are covered.
