Listen "Dr Grace Lordan on Privilege & Cognitive Diversity"
Episode Synopsis
What is Privilege? It's a word that's being used very frequently, but what is it, why is it undesirable and what can we do about it? All questions that my guest on this episode, Grace Lordan, helps me answer. We also explore Cognitive Diversity: what is it and why does it matter?Grace is an Associate Professor in Behavioural Science at the London School of Economics and Political Science. Hger research is focused on understanding why some individuals succeed over others because of factors beyond their control. In this regard, she has expertise on the effects of unconscious bias, discrimination and technology changes. Grace is also interested in using the techniques of behavioural science to design interventions for firms to promote good conduct, diversity and inclusion and curb biases that creep into high stakes decision making.She was my guest on a previous episode where we discussed Diversity: https://www.spreaker.com/episode/28887361You can about Grace's work here: http://www.lse.ac.uk/PBS/People/Dr-Grace-Lordan
