Internationally the search for and retention of skilled and talented people is more and more competitive. It is exactly the same in New Zealand.

There is greater diversity in the workplace including more people from different backgrounds, cultures, ages, generations, nationalities, disability, gender and with sought after transferable talents and skills. Within this dynamic environment, a significant challenge for all businesses and organisations at different times, is how to develop and retain good staff, and how to attract, hire and keep the best talent available.

Getting the best from Diversity

In addressing these challenges, how do organisations ensure that they are not unwittingly filtering out talented people because of unrecognised unconscious assumptions and biases?

You might not be hiring the best person available or getting the best from your people because of this understandable but unconscious behaviour. While getting the right ‘fit’ is a key element in staff selection and development, HR and managers need to be aware of some of the unconscious biases that may be at play and influencing their workplace decision-making processes. More importantly they need to know how to manage them.

Learning outcomes

This thought provoking and practical webinar will help you to:

• Better understand unconscious bias
• Learn practical tools and techniques to manage unconscious bias
