Unconscious Bias and a Broadway Show

Oct 24, 2023

Today, we’re talking about unconscious bias — both in the world of theatre and our world in general.

 

I start by sharing a recent experience I had when my husband Joe and I went to a Broadway play that ended up being one of most beautiful and inclusive productions I’ve ever seen on stage. 

 

I connect what this means for us as influential voices and thought leaders, and why it’s crucial you examine your own personal biases, so you can show up, connect, and communicate more deeply.

 

In this episode, we’ll explore:

  • The play I saw with Joe and what impressed me the most about it

  • How this play challenges audiences to view the world from a fresh perspective

  • The profound impact of first impressions, societal norms, and cognitive shortcuts

  • The importance of self-awareness and reflection on your own unconscious bias
