Racism, bullying, sexual harassment and other inappropriate behaviours contribute to a toxic culture. It can be deeply corrosive and damaging if these behaviours and attitudes are normalised over time. That’s why it’s essential for everyone to know how to speak up when problems arise.
This innovative and award-winning training gives you the skills to challenge unacceptable behaviours.
The Active Bystander Training Company has delivered sessions to thousands of people around the world and will be running 2 bespoke workshops at BCS 2025. These sessions will be tailored to those working in Cardiology and specific situations that you may encounter in the workplace.
