Create a thriving culture by overcoming unconscious biases within teams
Latest in Spark Lab
Why conversations on Unconscious Bias are more important than ever for Equity, Diversity & Inclusion?
Teams have the potential to thrive, when they have freedom from judgement. Team members come with varied experiences that forces them to take biased decisions. Investigating the root cause of individual biases and exploring how they affect their everyday life and work, helps team members to collectively raise the overall team culture, inclusivity and performance.
Understanding the science behind bias
Human beings often fail to understand irrational behaviours, both in themselves and others. We fail to understand why we behave in a certain manner or why someone else behaved in a certain way.
In order to understand and address biases, once needs to understand the way the unconscious mind works and how the body reacts to cope with the unconscious behaviours. The powerful works by many psycho-analysts in the space of Ego Defence Mechanisms helps individuals and teams to understand biases and address them effectively, to enhance performance.
How can we help you?
We understand that an individual needs to increase their awareness to their reactions to different situations and different stakeholders.
Deep reflection and identifying the inherent biases within every individual, helps them to work on planned approaches to overcome hard wired biases.

This session with Venkat couldn't be more different!
When you talk about Team and Culture, you expect a lecture or a presentation on what your managers and company want you to absorb. Seldom does anybody ask your opinion. This session with Venkat couldn't be more different! It was an interactive session where every team member felt relieved to have a safe environment to voice their fears and uncertainties with this organizational change. It gave the leader clarity on how people were truly perceiving the change and chance to develop a more inclusive plan. This session helped eliminate ambiguity and the assumptions we had and went back richer with an understanding of our combined goals and the way forward. Overall one of the most important lessons we learnt was to understand differences between us and to leverage these differences to work coherently as a team.
