In this video we explore how to embrace bias for growth. We explore intentional actions you can take to get the power of your bias to work for you instead of against you. How you can embrace bias for growth.
You are biased. We all are biased. To be human is to be biased.
We are joined by Lisa Tromba, author of "Mind Knots". Tromba shares with us how cognitive bias and emotional bias prevent us from rational leadership. We discuss deeply how leaders can develop deep awareness of their bias and take intentional actions to ensure their bias does not impact their decision making and their behaviour. Implicit bias, left unchecked, can be dangerous as a leader. Cognitive bias and emotional bias can hijack the way we think and the way we act.
When a leader is aware of their bias they can surround themselves with complementary biases to improve diversity of thought and to improve decision making.
