#48 The cognitive load of diversity with Stephen Frost

jeudi 21 mars 2024 • Durée 34:38

Three things are true in diversity and inclusion.

The first is that it makes both good business sense – diverse teams are more effective. Second, it's the right thing to do – people should have a place in organisations based on their capabilities.

And thirdly, and perhaps more controversially, that working with more diverse groups of people is harder. There is a cognitive cost in working with people who are less like us.

That’s what my guest, https://www.linkedin.com/in/ACoAAAAR7tYBFwLJ0rKpVnWWND2XKu2z0eNV-lo Stephen Frost and I explore in today’s episode of the podcast.
