The events of 2020 have created a sense of urgency and a demand for increased accountability in the areas of diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI). While the renewed focus on DEI is encouraging, even the most well-intentioned organizations struggle to create sustainable and systemic change.
To examine how companies can use data and behavioral science to approach DEI efforts, R&G Insights Lab hosted award-winning NYU Stern School of Business professor and social psychologist Dolly Chugh on December 15 for a virtual fireside chat about fighting bias and advancing more meaningful DEI strategies. Dolly highlighted her extensive research on the psychology of bias and shone a light on how we can use social science to hold ourselves accountable—and ultimately build better, more outcomes-driven DEI strategies. Dolly shared insights from her book, The Person You Mean to Be (How Good People Fight Bias), which offers a deeply researched—and innately practical—guide to addressing bias in our communities and our organizations.

This was the second in a three-part series designed to introduce you to how analytics and behavioral science can take your business and operations to the next level.
