BB163: The Science of Bias and Disconnection featuring Susan McCuistion

The Science of Bias and Disconnection
featuring Susan McCuistion

We wake up in the morning with good intentions to go to work, make a decent living, take care of our families, connect with our friends, and help our communities. We don't wake up intentionally trying to hurt others, yet we inevitably do.  Why? We don't understand our biases and how our perspectives exclude others.

It's not the bias that matters. Bias just makes us human. It's what we do with our biases that can positively or negatively impact our businesses and lives. 

We can't solve the systemic issues that are finally coming to a critical head in our society unless we understand what’s happening from a holistic point of view. We are all part of the system, and we are all connected. The science is clear - social disconnection is bad for our health. What can we do about it?

In this episode, we explore the science of disconnection, what it means for diversity and inclusion, and how to connect - even in times of "stay at home" and social distancing orders.
