Cutting-edge research in cognitive neuroscience and behavioral economics shows that we all suffer from subtle and unconscious dangerous judgment errors called cognitive biases, which cause us to make bad decisions in evaluating people and processes.
Cognitive biases even find their way into auditing and risk management much more than we would like to admit.
By refining your emotional intelligence, which refers to skills in understanding and managing your emotions, you will gain awareness of when your feelings are likely to lead you into these mental blindspots and prevent you from falling into them, making us better auditors and risk managers.
This discussion with Dr. Gleb Tsipursky will offer you case studies and best practices for reducing cognitive biases to give you the most critical skills and take-aways that you need to help yourself and others defeat unconscious bias.
