Episode 1932:

Christine Comaford explains why traditional diversity training often fails and how neuroscience offers better tools for lasting change. She highlights how unconscious bias is hardwired into the brain and shares actionable strategies, like fostering inclusion and teaching clear communication, to create more innovative, high-performing teams.

Quotes to ponder:

"Awareness alone doesn't work, but structures which prevent biases and the creation of skilled communication patterns and habits does."

"Biases are part of what keeps us sane and able to process the enormous amount of information that we are bombarded with at any point in time."

"You may think you are including, but if you are not consciously including someone who is not confident about their place in your inner circle, they may feel rejected or not welcome."
