Your Brain Will Lie To You: Conquering Your Cognitive Biases At Work
Date Thursday, Nov 23 Time –
Your brain assesses the world and your place in it by filtering and processing information at lightning speed. One way it does this is by making snap judgements that are influenced by our “cognitive biases.”
When we’re faced with low-risk decisions, our cognitive biases can be quite useful. But there are also times, like when you’re making a major decision about your career or business, that you need to be exactly right. Those are the times when you need to know if your brain is lying to you.
Join business leader and critical thinking expert Helen Lee Bouygues to learn about how you can overcome common cognitive biases to advance your career and your business.
