Coach Em hosts this crucial workshop that discusses why we have bias, how it impacts us and those around us, and how to navigate it. In these sessions, Emily presents impactful information, strategies, and tools for spotting, processing, and addressing bias. We recognise that bias can be a sensitive subject, but we perfected this package with some fun, and we are here to support you and your team.
Customizable Workshops and Seminars
Emily can speak to a great variety of topics, and can sculpt unique workshops and seminars to suit your needs.
If you have something in particular you would like to address with your team, please reach out to see how we can create a workshop, seminar, or series that caters to your preference. Our planning process involves an optional questionnaire which would be sent to participants ahead of time, the responses to which would help us to create a session that effectively addresses the concerns of attendees.
In a Workshop setting, we use activities to engage and challenge attendees to explore the relevant issues through self-reflection and group exploration.
In a Seminar setting, we design a questionnaire that inquires after the concerns, curiosities and questions of participants related to the particular topic. We then put together a presentation that addresses the common questions while providing education through graphics and stories.
Some of the topics Emily can address in either a Workshop or Seminar style session include:
Bias, Algorithmic Bias, and the Psychology of Discrimination (Em’s specialty!)
Digital Wellbeing
Perception of Self
Meditation and Mindfulness
Communication Skills
Giving and Receiving Feedback
Decision-Making
Conflict Mitigation
Mental, Emotional, Spiritual, and Digital Health and Regulation
Diversity and Inclusion
Colonization and Decolonization of Mind and Systems
The Intersection of Humanity and Technology
Algorithmic and Subconscious Bias
Empathy and Emotional Intelligence
The Relationship Between the Conscious and Subconscious Mind
Dream Analysis
These are only a few to get started. If you have something in mind that you think we might be able to help you with, please feel free to reach out and ask!
Please note, that we are based in Vancouver, BC, Canada, so the cost of in-person sessions will include travel expenses. Although we can accommodate virtual workshops, we find that in-person is the most effective and engaging format that procures longer-lasting, higher-impact results, so we recommend opting in-person workshops and seminars.
