8:30 - 9:15 PM - Social, we encourage you to move around between conversations to meet new people!
Discussion
Discussion during dinner will explore various forms of cognitive biases. A cognitive bias is a systematic error in thinking that affects the decisions and judgments that people make. Join us to discuss how cognitive biases manifest in our daily lives and our journey of self-awareness. We'll explore strategies for mitigating these biases to enhance our reasoning and decision-making abilities and share our motivations behind tackling these biases.
