Description of the action

At Arendt we value everyone as unique. This immersive presentation, guided by experienced theatre professionals, delves into the subtle and often unrecognised biases we all carry. Through a dynamic blend of interactive scenarios and compelling performances, participants are invited to step into others' perspectives, uncovering the influence of unconscious bias and stereotypes in our daily lives and workplaces. They explore their emotions through this thought-provoking event, which is designed to challenge assumptions, spark meaningful dialogue, and inspire a more inclusive and self-aware approach to engaging with others.

« To do »

Prepare with the "consultant-actors" to be aligned with the corporate culture and identify potential  stereotypes in our daily lives and workplaces

Don't assume you know everything about bias if you followed once a training.
It's a theatre representation that will be a memorable experience because it's similar to real life.
