About this event

Business • Career

Bias is not always obvious. It often appears in phrases like “fit”, “tone” or “readiness”, shaping who gets heard, who gets hired and who moves ahead.

In this Girl Geek Network session you will explore:

  • How everyday bias affects career growth
  • The myths of meritocracy and cultural fit
  • Practical ways to recognise and address bias in your own workplace

You will leave with a clearer understanding of the hidden systems that influence opportunity and with tools you can use to challenge bias constructively.

Perfect for: Women in tech, HR professionals and allies who want to create fairer, more inclusive teams.
