Diversity and Inclusion – What Are You Doing?


Our focus this month is on diversity and inclusion, and how unconscious bias awareness for your entire organisation is an important factor in creating a more inclusive culture.  

While just delivering an unconscious bias workshop is not the answer, it does have a place in helping to review ways of working, as well as looking at systemic biases that have crept into policies and working practices.  

A good place to start is understanding how unconscious bias impacts the decisions made across all levels of an organisation.  This can help to identify more inclusive ways of working going forward.  

Laughology has helped many organisations develop fairer and more inclusive working practices over the years. To help you get thinking about what you can do, we have put together a selection of mini case studies from our news stories over the past 18 months where we have supported organisations to make long term change with positive outcomes for inclusivity.   

What's the point of unconscious bias training

Are you doing enough to address diversity

No one likes to be told they are biased. Most progressive, modern people in business would like to think they are open-minded, gender neutral and non-discriminatory. The stats, however, tell a different story.

To help get you started, we have created some visuals for you to share with your team.  You can use them as a guide to start conversations about unconscious bias, diversity, and inclusion.  There are also some questions to discuss with some guiding answers.  

As a team, create some actions for how you can be more aware of individual unconscious bias. How can you positively challenge it in other people? Create some actions for what you can collectively do to be more inclusive in your ways of working.
