“Buki Mosaku's powerful new book shares unparalleled insight into navigating unconscious workplace bias and provides practical solutions for every manager, decision-maker, and employee. I Don’t Understand is the definitive guide to calling out unconscious bias in the workplace.”
—The European
With disarming honesty, humour, enthusiasm, and a rare breed of clarity void of guilt or pain, Buki empowers and equips audiences of leaders and staff alike to effortlessly navigate what he describes as “the inevitability of workplace bias”.
Buki has cracked the code for calling out unconscious workplace bias to stop it in its tracks. The basic premise is simple: Traditional corporate training solutions tend to follow the counterproductive model of Guilty Perpetrator v Hapless Victim. Buki will explain why this approach is unproductive and counter intuitive. Even better, he will present a more effective model to navigating ALL workplace bias and show audiences How to Think, What to Say, When to Say it and the Way to Say it, so that you can put career stifling and conflict generating workplace bias behind you, your colleagues and team once and for all. As a leading business consultant Buki has worked with global industry giants including: Shell, BNP Paribas, M&S, Goldman Sachs, American Express, Aon, HSBC and more.
