Hidden Bias in Everyday Decisions

  • 11th June 2026
  • 3.30pm - 5pm
  • Online (Zoom)

In partnership with The I.D.E.A.L Network, move beyond bias awareness to understand how it manifests in systems, habits, and organizational decision-making – and how to avoid it.

Sam Stimpson will move beyond bias awareness to understand how hidden bias manifests in systems, habits, and organisational decision-making. Looking into structural vs. individual bias, how to identify where bias appears in organisations and decision-making under pressure, the session will give strategies for strengthening fairness. This will include the creation of frameworks to challenge assumptions and how to create more equitable processes.
