Abstract

After an overview of the functioning of the human brain, we see how to deal with the seven capital biases in everyday life. We must accept the fact that our brains are biased and that we have to learn how to define and correct these predispositions. Biases cannot be erased but can be mitigated by being aware of their influence and looking at them from different perspectives. To control our biases, we can rely on ourselves, rely on others, or prevent them according to the situation. Finally, making a personal effort to become aware of our seven capital biases and counter them is not enough. This effort should be integrated into a systematic process that will transform the organization and make it a great place to work.
