Impact Masterclass: Decision-Making & Bias Breaking (Basel)
Impact Masterclass: Decision-Making & Bias Breaking
A 90-minute science-backed masterclass to recognize cognitive bias, master decision-making, and build a more equitable business future.
Every day you make decisions that shape your business, your clients, and your future. Yet, most of us were never taught how to decide well. We carry cognitive biases, invisible patterns that quietly distort who we hire, where we invest, and which opportunities we pursue.
The Challenge
Research shows that gender bias shapes funding decisions at every level. This training exists to change that. This isn't a lecture. It's a practical, human experience that helps you recognize your own biases, understand how they work, and implement systems that support better decisions: for your growth, your business, and the people who depend on your judgment.
Who is this for?
Whether you are a female entrepreneur navigating the funding landscape, an investor seeking merit-based choices who wants to ensure funding reflects potential rather than pattern-matching, or a coach building clarity, this interactive experience is for you.
The Journey
Our Masterclass provides a dynamic learning journey to strengthen decision-making skills. It is structured as:
Hands-on Learning: Practical exercises to ground the theory.
Thought-Provoking Workshop: Deep dives into your specific mental models.
Collaborative Insights: Opportunities to drive meaningful change across your organization and the broader ecosystem.

90-minute Live Masterclass: Interactive and science-backed.
