AI is not neutral—and neither are we. This interactive session explores the complex relationship between human bias and artificial intelligence, particularly in how accessibility and equity are impacted across the workplace. Tailored for managers, senior leaders, and people-focused practitioners, the session equips participants to identify, question, and begin to mitigate bias in the everyday use of AI tools.

We’ll start by setting the stage: AI systems reflect the data—and the people—that shape them. Together we’ll explore how and why bias emerges, and examine its implications on inclusion.

As the session progresses, participants will move from surprise to clarity—leaving with a practical, easy-to-remember framework, an understanding of the most common risk areas in people processes, and strategies they can implement immediately, even without deep technical expertise. Whether you’re creating AI use policies or simply trying to apply a more equitable lens to your work, this session will build your awareness, sharpen your skills, and help you use AI with greater responsibility and intention.
