S1 Ep70: Understanding and breaking bias as a social impact leader

Rosa is a relentless optimist who still believes we can change the world. She has worked in education for 12 years in Oxford, both as a teacher and as a manager, embedding diversity and inclusion in lessons and supporting teachers in this aim.
Aware that not all children have a positive experience at school and that biases keep impacting working environments, she launched her social enterprise, EGALVIA. She focuses on tackling biases that can lead to racism and gender discrimination. Rosa provides anti-bias workshops and ongoing support within a framework for long-term transformation for charities, purpose-led businesses and companies committed to provide working environments where everyone can thrive.
She has lived in three different countries, brings cultural understanding to her trainings and has worked in marketing, administration and the third sector. In this episode we discuss:

• What are biases
• How biases impact our behaviour and what we can do about them
• How biases impact organisations negatively
• How we can break biases
• Why this is important for social enterprise leaders
