Tackling Gender Bias
This short film looks at the nature of gender bias and explains how it impacts on both individuals and organisations.
Description
If organisations truly believe that their people are their biggest asset, then addressing and eliminating bias has to be central to everything they do - from recruitment and development through to advancement and promotion to leadership roles. Research shows that gender stereotypes continue to impact negatively on both men and women in the workplace and as a result, organisations are routinely failing to recruit, retain and advance the best people. In this short film, Professor Binna Kandola and Dr Jo Kandola look at the reality of gender inequality in the workplace, how a reliance on stereotypes is holding us back and what practical steps we can take to tackle implicit bias around gender.
