The Edmond J. Safra Center for Ethics and Harvard Book Store are pleased to welcome Dolly Chugh, award-winning social psychologist, for a discussion of her latest book, The Person You Mean to Be: How Good People Fight Bias. She will be joined in conversation by Harvard Business School professor, Max H. Bazerman.
Many of us believe in equality, diversity, and inclusion. But how do we stand up for those values in our turbulent world? The Person You Mean to Be is the smart, "semi-bold" person’s guide to fighting for what you believe in.
Dolly reveals the surprising causes of inequality, grounded in the "psychology of good people". Using her research findings in unconscious bias as well as work across psychology, sociology, economics, political science, and other disciplines, she offers practical tools to respectfully and effectively talk politics with family, to be a better colleague to people who don’t look like you, and to avoid being a well-intentioned barrier to equality. Being the person we mean to be starts with a look at ourselves.
This event is part of our "Ethics in Your World" speaker series featuring leading thinkers taking on tough problems that matter to us all.
This event is free; no tickets are required. The book will be for sale at the event.
