Inclusive Employers Microaggressions
Microaggressions are tiny behaviours that reveal our unconscious and implicit bias. A key part of addressing bias in the workplace is identifying these microaggressions. Understanding they exist is the first step to being able to spot, challenge and mitigate these behaviours and our training will support and equip you with the confidence to do this.
Microaggressions Training: Why You Need It
For underrepresented groups in your workplace – including women, LGBTQ+ colleagues and ethnic minorities – implicit bias in the form of microaggressions affects wellbeing, their sense of safety and ability to succeed and feel valued at work. Unconscious or implicit bias may already be a core part of your training offer, but it is important that microaggressions are also incorporated into your organisation’s learning, to truly get under the skin of our biases and begin to embrace real inclusion.
