Whether we acknowledge it or not, common, everyday prejudices influence how we see the world. The truth is, we cannot go shopping, enter a dialog, or make a decision with no bias of some kind kicking in. The authors demonstrate the best way to defeat prejudices that are common in the workplace is together.
They describe five classes of common biases that all leaders should be comfortable with, and reveal how team-based practices can be redesigned to help identify prejudices as they appear, and counteract them on the fly.
