Unconscious communication biases and why we need to increase the diversity of communication styles

Sign up for our next webinar!

Have you ever wondered why people with certain communication styles get promoted or recognised more than others? Why women sometimes get overlooked for promotions due to a purported “lack of confidence”? Or if you disadvantage people through any unconscious communication biases?

In this webinar we discuss how we unconsciously communicate and why this can be very misleading., with a focus on how men and women communicate differently and what we can do to become better in understanding each other.
