Are you tired of hiring managers who prioritise "cultural fit" over potential? Struggling to implement inclusive recruitment despite your best efforts? The biggest blocker to inclusive hiring often isn't the process, it's the mindset of your hiring managers.
If that sounds like your organisation, then this webinar is for you.
What we’ll cover in 60 minutes:
- Why mindsets matter – Six years of research shows it’s not processes but hiring manager mindsets that are the real barrier to building diverse teams.
- GRIT over “cultural fit” – Discover why resilience and perseverance are the number one predictors of career success, and how this approach naturally creates diversity without quotas.
- From polish to potential – Practical mindset shifts that move hiring managers away from credentials and “fit” toward growth, lived experience, and untapped talent.
- Interactive mindset check-ins – Live polling and chat-based interaction so you can see in real time how your own mindset compares – and shifts.
Results you can expect:
In previous sessions, 98% of delegates reported a shift in mindset, with 74% describing a major transformation in how they approach talent acquisition.
This isn’t your typical EDI session, it’s lively, non-judgemental, and designed to spark real change in just one hour.
