Unconscious Bias Training

Most bias training stops working the moment the session ends.

Ours is built on the bias habit-breaking model — the only approach shown in randomised trials to keep working. Your people already care about fairness. What's missing is a set of practical tools to catch bias in the moment and do something different.

Why this training works when most doesn't

Most unconscious bias training fails for a predictable reason: it tells people what's wrong with them and sends them back to work. Awareness without strategies just produces guilt.

Our program is built on the bias habit-breaking model developed by psychologists Patricia Devine and William Cox at the University of Wisconsin–Madison. It treats bias like any other habit: learned, automatic, and breakable with deliberate practice.

8 wks

Effects still measurable 8 weeks after training in the first randomised controlled trial of its kind. A 2019 meta-analysis of 492 studies found no other approach lasting beyond a single day.

32→47%

Women among new faculty hires rose from 32% to 47% in trained departments in a randomised trial across 92 university departments. Untrained departments didn't move.

2–3 yrs

Participants were still acting on the training years later — speaking up about bias in situations the training never covered.

We've adapted this model for Australian workplaces, public services and community contexts. It shapes everything we deliver, from the 90-minute intro to the full-day program.

Intro to Unconscious Bias — live online, 90 minutes

See how bias actually works, and what it takes to interrupt it.

  • Experience how fast, automatic thinking shapes your everyday decisions (not just read about it)
  • Learn why bias works like a habit, and what that means for breaking it
  • Leave with language your team can use to talk about bias without blame
  • Try one practical strategy you can apply at work the same week

Bring the full program to your organisation

The complete workshop is a full-day, in-person session for up to 24 people. It's experiential by design: participants catch their own bias in action, then practise the strategies to interrupt it.

Participants leave able to

Recognise how bias shows up in hiring, promotion and everyday decisions

Use practical, research-backed strategies to interrupt biased thinking before it becomes a biased decision

Talk about bias with colleagues without defensiveness or blame

Keep the practice going after the workshop ends, because habits don't break in a day

Every program is tailored to your context. That starts with a conversation.

"Our people are tired of DEI training."

Fair. Most of it lectures people about what's wrong with them, and everyone walks out defensive. This program starts differently. Bias is a habit of mind, the kind everyone forms without choosing to, and the work is practical: notice the habit, see where it came from, replace it. Nobody is shamed, quizzed in front of colleagues, or told what to think. In a published study of the model, participants from the communities bias affects most described the training as respectful and practical, and all of them applied it.
