Who are we?
WHEN SCIENCE CONNECTS WITH BUSINESS
EquiLens stands apart as a company committed to driving transformative change in the recruitment landscape.
The heart of our offerings lies in providing rigorous and scientifically grounded training and services. We believe that a deep understanding of the underlying science and research is essential for initiatives where the goal is to change human behaviour. This conviction leads our approach of crafting bespoke training programmes and advisory services.
We recognize that a generic approach to equity/inclusion training may fall short, and therefore, our solutions are intricately designed to address the unique challenges faced by recruiters, interviewers and hiring managers. Our commitment to specificity ensures that our interventions are not just informative but also actionable, facilitating meaningful change.
EquiLens goes beyond traditional unconscious bias training by offering comprehensive audits and reviews of your recruiting and hiring practices. Our goal is to first identify areas of improvement and implement bias-interrupting practices that align with the latest advancements in behavioural science research.
ABOUT ME
I am Magda Witkiewicz-Gavenda, the founder behind EquiLens. With over 9 years of corporate experience, I have honed my expertise predominantly in the dynamic field of recruiting for the top investment bank in London and across Europe. My journey is marked by a commitment to excellence, a dedication for diversity, equity, and inclusion, and a unique blend of academic achievements.
Recently, I earned a Masters in Human Rights from the prestigious London School of Economics, a testament to my dedication to understanding and promoting human rights in the corporate world. I also hold a Bachelor degree in journalism & social communication, offering me a nuanced understanding of effective communication strategies. Complementing this, my studies in international relations provide a global perspective, crucial in navigating the diverse landscape of today’s workforce
In recognition of my commitment to inclusive leadership, I have also obtained a certificate in Inclusive Leadership from the London School of Economics. This further enriches my ability to drive positive change within organizations, emphasizing the importance of diversity in leadership and decision-making.
Beyond my academic background, my passion lies in the intersection of science, human rights, and business. I firmly believe in the transformative power of education and I am dedicated to running training programmes that go beyond imparting knowledge—aiming to reshape mindsets and behaviours.
