To understand the role of wilful blindness in our everyday lives, the organisations we work in and depend on, and in wider society.

How to interpret organisational cultures and understand their role in reinforcing the presence and impact of wilful blindness.

Requirements
A desire to learn and understand what drives your own and others actions, biases, and responses.
A passion for organisations and wider society to become more humane and act with greater integrity.
An acceptance that change starts within each of us, and a willingness to lead beyond your authority.
A desire to be part of creating a more thoughtful, aware, and compassionate world.
Description
The cultures of conformity that pervade our social groups, schools, and workplaces, our desires to succeed and survive, our primal need to belong, and the constant overloading of our attention is disconnecting us from our potential, stripping us and the organizations we work in, of our ability to think and act with humanity and integrity. Police Forces, Car Manufacturers, Charities, Banks, and Healthcare, no person or organisation is immune to the onset of wilful blindness and the ultimately destructive impact it is having on us all.
Real-life is the messy space that exists between the unreality of the adverts, our life plans, our neat organization charts, mission statements, vision & values posters, and seven-point plans for change. It is the space in which reality occurs, where our true values are exposed. Who hasn't faced the moral dilemma of choosing between turning a blind eye to something they might think is wrong or being a bit brave, asking the awkward questions, speaking up, stepping in, standing out, and making themselves unpopular by being true to their better self and their conscience?
This unique course reveals the enormous impact wilful blindness has on all our lives. You will learn about it firsthand from Tom Bell, an author, speaker, ethics consultant, justice campaigner, and whistleblower. You will begin to understand how prevalent wilful blindness is, how it comes to be, and how you can identify and address the challenges it creates. Tom has spent many years seeking justice for his sister Alison. As your guide on this journey, he has a wealth of lived experience as well as professional expertise and insight gained at all levels in public, private, and voluntary organizations. You will gain knowledge, practical tools, and techniques, to identify and address wilful blindness. You will start to understand the inbuilt biases that drive our behaviors in the groups we belong to. And you will begin to get comfortable with your own and others' fallibility.
