Everyone has hiring bias—even you.

When a candidate sits at the interview table with you, they represent two people: the person they are, and the person you think they are.

The bigger the gap between reality and perception, the higher the odds of the wrong decision being made.

Bias serves to keep reality and perception apart.

Bridge the gap by keeping your biases in check through practices in self-awareness, mindfulness, and culture change.

Based on the 2020 Breakout Book on Hiring, Mastering the Hire

This presentation is based on one of the most revolutionary books for anyone who’s involved in hiring people in the 21st century. Tomorrow’s talent doesn’t fit yesterday’s mold and is often overlooked. Understanding and removing bias will give you a competitive advantage.

The interview is the cornerstone of the hiring process, yet science has shown the odds aren’t in your favor. In Mastering the Hire, the executive director of the Broad Center Chaka Booker provides strategies that will dramatically improve the one decision that determines everything you can accomplish--who you hire.
