Diverse Teams Feel Less Comfortable - and That's Why They Perform Better - Boston
Let's explore the science of human behavior and the dynamics of teams.
We invite you to join us to:
●Understand the origin of in-group and out-group phenomenon, and how it works in the brain
●Understand the dynamics of homogenous versus diverse groups
●Learn how to leverage these dynamics to maximize team effectiveness
Increasingly, businesses are embracing diversity and inclusion as a means of forging a sustainable future. Under increasing scrutiny, and mindful of the benefits of diversity on the bottom line, many companies are trying to recruit and retain a more diverse workforce. Success has so far been marginal. With so much at stake, why aren’t these companies making more headway?
With our special guest, Patricio Ramal and Dr. Kamila E. Sip, we will explore the science of human behavior and the dynamics of teams, which question the assumptions about what makes diverse groups perform better than homogenous groups. We will review how measures that are counterintuitive to many organizations today, can help build more effective and better-performing teams.
We are very excited to be hosting this event in collaboration with NeuroLeadership Institute.
