Authors Mahzarin Banaji and Anthony Greenwald of Blindspot: Hidden Biases of Good People and creators of the Implicit Association Test (IAT) reveal the hidden biases and stereotypes that subconsciously reside within our minds and affect the way we behave towards others, through this book. Based on the authors' experience with the Implicit Association Test, a method that has revolutionized the way scientists learn about the human mind, this series of insights gives us a glimpse into what lies within the metaphoric blindspot and how we can adapt ourselves to treat people around us fairly by aligning our behavior with our intentions.

Blindspot By Mahzarin Banaji And Anthony Greenwald

If a test could measure just how racist, sexist, ageist and homophobic you are, would you take it? Mahzarin Banaji and Anthony Greenwald, the scientists behind the test explain that our minds work very differently than we choose to believe. And is there anything you can do about this? Absolutely. Learn how to watch out for and overcome any hidden biases and stereotypes riddled in your mind, through this series.

Have you heard of a mindbug? They're pesky little creatues that live in your mind rent-free and lead to errors in how we perceive, remember, reason and make decisions, say Banaji and Greenwald. So, how do these mindbugs form and how can you get rid of them? Find the answers to these questions in this video.

Mindbugs are beliefs that color your perceptions and lead to unconscious biases and prejudices. While you can't change these biases, you can curb your behavior and instincts if they go against your conscious values.

Here's the thing about groups: you naturally prefer the one you're a part of. Why? Because it shapes who you are and what you believe in. This preference leads to a bias - "us" versus "them." The question is, how do we stop this bias from crossing the line and becoming discrimination? Let's look at what Banaji and Greenwald have to say.

Discrimination is the result of covert predjustice and contributes to injustice and inequality. Favoritism, using connections to help a friend, is a subtle form of discrimination but just as harmful.

Words matter. Once spoken, they cannot be taken back. They hold the power to alter people's lives - ranging from life sentences to broken relationships. And that's why they must be chosen carefully, say Banaji and Greenwald. Whether it’s an email, a presentation or even an argument, use words that strengthen your case and clearly support your intent. - for maximum impact.

Words have the power to change people's lives. If not used carefully, words can alter perceptions, memories, change outcomes and destroy relationships.

Banaji and Greenwald’s Implicit Association Test (IAT) can reveal many aspects of an individual's personality, one of them being: their laughter. While deciding to hire someone at your organization, focus on the prospect's humor. Do they laugh at racist, sexist or homophobic jokes? Well, that’s your red flag. Remember, jokes that belittle or disrespect others just aren't funny.

Humor is another tool for uncovering bias. When hiring, pay attention to what makes a candidate laugh—is it belittling or disrespecting?

Ever heard of the damsel in distress waiting for her prince charming to come and rescue her? It's only a fairytale. Trouble is, such stories teach young girls that their future is dependant on finding the right man rather than their own ambitions and efforts. Banaji and Greenwald highlight the negative impact of such beliefs on women and why they must be changed, in this video.

For women, the romantic fairytale template is counterproductive. It teaches that a woman's future depends on finding the right man, not her own efforts.

What's your favorite stereotype? Well, you shouldn't have one because they're usually negative, frequently unfair and largely untrue. Trusting the labels other people attach to you can be downright dangerous, so make sure to fight them as they will impact your choices in everything that matters, say Banaji and Greenwald.

Stereotypes are usually negative and untrue. Accepting the stereotypes that other people assign you can impact your fundamental life choices.

Mindbugs are destructive and we're all infected. And here's the bad news: you cannot get rid of them completely. Does this mean you’re stuck with them in your brain forever? No. Banaji and Greenwald point out that you can modify them. How? Let's find out in this video.

To get rid of mindbugs, acknowledge your biases, increase exposure to others, and seek positive examples. Hardest of all, see yourself not how others see you but as the person you really are.

Steve Jobs revolutionized the world. The reason why Apple products lure many despite higher pricing is the build-up to the launch. Principal at thoughtLEADERS Brian Ahearn shares insights from The Presentation Secrets of Steve Jobs to help hone these skills.

The Presentation Secrets Of Steve Jobs By Carmine Gallo

Apple products are testimony to Steve Jobs' dedication to perfection in both technology and design. He had a knack for generating interest and anticipation for each product, and this book reveals some of those secrets. Find out how to flare aspirational desires in the minds of the consumer?

Raising aspirational desires in customers results in creating a demand for it.

Knowing your presentation software is just one of the steps to a good show, but it is not all there is to it! These are just tools aiding you and not the other way around. Ask yourself this question before you start preparing.

Overdependence on presentation software leads to boring shows. The focus is on you, so polish your story and the key points you want to highlight.

Finally, it is about how well you sell your offering, whether it is a product, an idea, or a service. Questions are important in this episode: posing them, framing them, or even answering them can lead you to your goal. Here are some sample questions to get you started.

Ask an engaging question to onboard your audience at the outset. Once you have secured their attention, present your idea.

Creating a vision of what you imagine will help your audience to buy your idea more easily. What you don't say is as important as what you do. People remember better when they can associate a memory with a great story.

Make it easier for the audience to visualize your thoughts. Being on the same page with your target group increases the chances of making a sale.

Humans are wired to answer a question, even if they don't verbalize it. And Steve Jobs knew this. He would use this trick to get the audience to agree and engage with him more often.

Learn to pause for effect after you pose a question or make a statement. This also gives the audience time to reflect upon it. Use the less is more strategy to build impact.

Not all subjects are simple to explain. Steve Jobs suggests employing metaphors, analogies, and testimonials to break down complex matter into easily comprehensible bites. The audience can understand better by relating complex concepts to familiar situations. Learn to use these devices effectively in this episode.

Using Metaphors, Analogies And Testimonials

Metaphors give clarity by juxtaposing two entirely different things and revealing hidden meanings. An analogy explains a concept by comparing two disparate things. Testimonials speak up for your brand without sounding like a boast.

It might seem logical to inundate the audience with data. Facts reveal the truth, right? Wrong! Humans tend to get overwhelmed when dealing with too much information. Follow Jobs' lead in driving the message home, just as he did with the iPod.

Don't drown with data. The bigger the number, the less convincing they are. Keep the message short and simple for it to be memorable.

Presentation is a skill and it can be learned and perfected. Steve Jobs practiced the craft until it came naturally. Use routine activities such as walks or travel time to practice frequently.

Know your presentation material well to adapt to changing circumstances. Practice as often as possible to learn the flow. Try recording a video to see it through the audience's eye.

Magic was created when Disney's Michael Eisner and Frank Wells-- one an innovator and the other a dealmaker-- decided to join forces.

A succesful partnership is built on honesty, complementary skills, effective communication, and a focus on individual responsibilities.

Charlie Munger wanted to be a lawyer but was convinced by Warren Buffett to come on board at Berkshire Hathaway. That started a partnership that would fuel the growth of the investing major.

The foundation for a successful partnership is mutual respect. This allows the organization to benefit from their complementary thinking.

Keep the mentee's interests in mind when you advise them. Match your goals with their long-term goals. Build bridges by framing the questions correctly and opt for grace instead of rule of law.

People are motivated by what benefits them, not what benefits others. Frame your mentoring with the recipient's self-interest in mind, matching their goals with the company's needs.

Good communication skills are a surefire way of finding solutions. Jamie Turner suggests meeting dos and some don'ts. Call status meetings for quick updates, avoid micromanagement and assign action items for attendees before wrapping up.

Most business problems can be solved through better communication. Use meetings to facilitate communication by establishing meeting objectives, avoiding micromanagement, and ending with clear action items.

Introduction To The 3-Box Framework With Examples

What makes In Search of Excellence by Tom Peters and Robert Waterman a much sought-after management book, 40 years after it debuted? Finding a common chord among outstanding organizations led the authors to analyze their success. It also helps pin down timeless parallels between the modern workspace and establishments from the post-WWII era the book is set in.

In Search Of Excellence By Robert H. Waterman Jr. And Tom Peters

Tom Peters and Robert Waterman base their book on 43 stellar companies that withstand the onslaught of competition and come out shining more than ever before. Watch this series to find out what works in their favor!

The first outstanding thing that star-performing companies do is act quickly. While research and analysis are good, they do not guarantee success. Showing your innovation to the customer ups the chances of victory. Here are some great examples of how to do this.

Competitive companies focus on action. Forego extensive analysis and planning in favor of experimentation, even at the risk of occasional failure.

What is a company willing to do to make the customer happy? Plenty, as examples in this episode demonstrate. Whether it was Frito Lay, IBM, or the lesser-known Lanier, these companies put the customer at the forefront of their offerings, making the user experience the hero.

An excellent company delivers excellent customer service. Seek to exceed your customers' expectations and not only will your brand inspire customer loyalty but it will also evolve in unexpected ways.

A kind of bureaucratic lethargy sets in as businesses grow. The solution to this lies in project champions who revitalize the company and reinject the spirit of innovation. As the examples in this episode show, small energetic groups have a far better chance of success than large teams.

Businesses naturally become slower and less innovative as they grow. You can avoid this deceleration by creating small, autonomous units within your organization.

Decode your people philosophy. Are you as trusting in your team's ability to perform without strict supervision as you profess to be? It has been proven that people don't perform in distrusting and disrespectful conditions. Consider that as you build your team.

Excellent companies are made of excellent people. Your organization is more likely to be productive and successful if your people feel trusted and respected.

As a team member, it is essential to know and understand the core values of your organization to work towards fulfilling them. However, before you set about laying the foundation of your company's culture, consider two essentials: your values should not clash and limit them to just a few, so they are easy to follow.

Values play an active role within an organization—they galvanize employees and help set direction. Choose a small number of clear, complimentary values that embody your company's purpose.

Judge before you leap over chasms and business acquisitions alike. Assess your strengths and play to them is the advice from the authors. Find out what happened when alcoholic drink maker Heublien acquired the fast-food chain KFC.

It can be tempting to expand into new and growing business areas. Make sure the new business is in keeping with your existing expertise and you thoroughly understand the industry.

The great performers excel in managing their operations by keeping it simple. Intel and IBM perfected the art. Learn how to handle middle-level management expansion to your benefit.

Complex organizational structures can create unhealthy spheres of influence and narrow perspectives. Seek to keep your corporate structure simple by choosing clear operating units organized around product, business, or region.

Companies that excel have stringent control over quality and service. They also encourage entrepreneurial and innovative spirit in their workforce and thrive because of this.

The concept of loose but tight means exercising control over core functions like legal and finance while allowing operating units rein to innovate. The two modes are synergistic—each strengthens the other.

Dividing the easily definable factors as hard things and the others as soft things, the authors argue that excellent companies tend to outperform other companies because of their ability to focus on the soft things.

In business, hard things are tangible, like procedures and structure, while soft things are intangible, such as culture. To build a successful organization, focus as much attention on what you can't see as what you can.

In Dare To Lead, researcher and storyteller Brené Brown brings readers a practical handbook on what it takes to be a brave and courageous leader. If you’re ready to transform your leadership style and your organisation, this course is just what you need.

If you’re a leader who spends a lot of time dealing with self-doubt, Dare To Lead will teach you how to turn vulnerability into your greatest strength. Brené Brown is a researcher and storyteller who spent two decades studying the effects of courage, vulnerability, shame and empathy, in addition to how they impact leadership.

Have you encountered a culture of blaming and shaming at any of your workplaces? Ever worked in an office where every small failure was followed by a knee-jerk reaction? These are just some of the most obvious examples of what happens under weak leadership. In this video, we will showcase ten familiar traits we find in our workplaces that can hold teams and organizations back.

The word "vulnerable" comes wrapped in negativity, but the truth is vulnerability is not a weakness at all. Everyone feels vulnerable. Even the most successful leaders experience many types of fears on a regular basis. In this video, we’ll introduce the idea of turning vulnerability into a strength by framing it not as a weakness, but simply a barrier that needs to be overcome.

Vulnerability is not a weakness. You don't need to trust someone before you can be vulnerable in front of them. Everyone needs someone they can lean on, and you were not built to walk alone. In this video, we’ll break down the biggest myths surrounding vulnerability, so that you can start embracing it.

Dealing with vulnerability doesn’t just mean expressing yourself, it also involves paying attention to what others have to say. In this episode, we’ll go through a short exercise where you build your Square Squad - a small group of people you can trust to give you honest feedback at all times. 

In this episode, we’ll learn how to "rumble", or tackle potentially uncomfortable discussions or meetings by using a simple framework. When you’re rumbling, every stakeholder enters the session with an open heart and mind, with the single aim of solving the problem at hand, without letting egos get in the way.

In order to rumble successfully, you need to communicate with complete clarity. In this episode, we’ll take you through five actionable steps you can take to ensure there is no gap between what is being communicated, and what is being understood by the group.

In order to protect ourselves from getting hurt or embarrassed, we build different types of armor around us. From not seeking help, to trying too hard to be liked, this need to self-protect can be broken only by embracing a wholehearted approach to leadership.

Armored leaders come from a place of self-protection. Wholehearted leaders lead with compassion and empathy. In this video and the next, we’ll look at specific examples of the problems armored leadership can lead to, and compare and contrast wholehearted leadership.

Armored Leadership vs Wholehearted Leadership: Part 1

Among other things, in this episode we look at one of the most common examples of armored leadership: one where exhaustion and business are rewarded over performance.

Armored Leadership vs Wholehearted Leadership: Part 2

Shame is the voice in your head that tells you "you’re not good enough". Brené Brown describes it as the master emotion, and the one that most often stops us from being vulnerable. In this episode, we’ll learn about this vortex of shame by explaining how it works, and how it shows up at the workplace.

To overcome an emotion as strong as shame, you need something equally as strong - empathy. Empathy is not about trying to make things better for a person, or looking for solutions. It’s about telling them you understand, and letting them know you’re there for them. In this episode, we’ll go through a set of Do’s and Don’ts that you can follow to lead with empathy.

The most difficult part of getting into tough conversations is that you have no control over the direction it will take. In this episode, we’ll look at the one thing that will help you get through these rumbles without getting scarred: grounded confidence, or confidence that is built on self-awareness, curiosity and practice. 

In this video, we’ll look at how core values help in your journey towards becoming a brave leader, and will also go through Brené Brown’s simple toolkit that will help you live by your values.

In this episode, we’ll go through a three-part process to help pick out your two core values. You’ll start with some blue-sky thinking and list down everything that comes to mind, before narrowing it down to the two you feel are most aligned to your beliefs.

Any feedback session is about facilitating and fact-finding - it’s about listening as much as it is about talking. In this episode, we’ll go through a seven-point checklist that will help you build a key skill - having a tough conversation without getting hurt or being hurtful.

The slightest inkling that someone is questioning our trustworthiness puts us on the defensive, and makes us shut down emotionally. This is why trust is one of the most important things in any relationship - whether in your personal life or at work. In this episode, we’ll go through Brené Brown’s step-by-step guide to building trust.

Being a courageous leader means you will fail - it's important to learn how to rise in anticipation of this. In this episode, we’ll look at a simple two-step process that will teach you how to rise back up when you fall, how to overcome your mistakes, and how to learn and move forward from the hurt that we feel from our failures.

Having worked your way through this series, you are now equipped for your journey towards becoming a truly courageous leader. In the final episode, we go through the big talking points of the course, which you can use as a ready reckoner in case you need a quick refresher.
