We'd like to extend a special welcome to our new listeners in Japan and Ireland and thank everyone who's tuning in each week. In this episode, Will Wilkinson and Christopher Harding explore the science of bias. Although the brain seems to naturally default to biases as a shortcut to speed up our ability to make decisions, this natural tendency is now considered by some organizations as a serious problem. As one executive at a Fortune 100 company recently shared with me, “Unconscious bias is a significant barrier to our ability to effectively solve the type of complex challenges we now face.” Other organizations have gone so far as to label the brain’s shortcut process the “Virus of Bias” because it spreads so easily and rapidly throughout an organization below the level of our conscious awareness. Join Will and Christopher as they share the tips, tools, and methods used by leading companies in their effort to eliminate biases from their thinking and decision-making practices.
