Why is it important?
It is important for leaders and decision-makers to understand the impact our knowledge and unconscious biases can have on policies, priorities and the way we engage with staff and audiences. Embracing diversity and inclusion can be an asset to business strength and development, as well as being a moral and legal responsibility.
