Diversity and Inclusion is one of the hottest topics of 2019. In the past couple of years, diversity has become a business-critical issue. Increasing diversity amongst leadership teams has been recognised as positively affecting the organisation’s overall, as well as financial, performance.

In this whitepaper, assessment technology pioneer, Arctic Shores, explores in detail what the common sources of bias are, how they can negatively impact a business and some of the solutions available to hiring managers.
