Eric M. Bailey: Named 'Diversity Leader of the Year' by the Diversity Leadership Alliance
A fun and fascinating conversation with Eric M. Bailey, bestselling author of The Cure for Stupidity: Using Brain Science to Explain Irrational Behavior and President of Bailey Strategic Innovation Group, one of the fastest-growing human communication consulting firms in the United States.
Eric was recently named Diversity Leader of the Year by the Diversity Leadership Alliance. In this episode of Coaches on Zoom Drinking Coffee, Coaching.com CEO Alex Pascal asks him to debunk some myths about what bias means and explain how people who confront their biases have greater opportunities for control and creativity.
As an expert on human behavior, connection, and communication, Eric had insights to share on how we can interrupt our thought cycles and move beyond our initial unhelpful reactions to stressful situations. Using road rage as an example, he provides practical tips you can apply right away to avoid holding onto the frustration you feel at the behavior of others.
One of the major conversations currently taking place in our culture is around political correctness and a perceived increase in the general population’s sensitivity levels. During their discussion, Eric and Alex consider whether beloved shows like Seinfeld could be shown today - and whether it’s really a negative thing if we’ve evolved past certain media.
To learn how to help people move beyond defensiveness into an open, curious mindset where they’re able to embrace diversity, listen to the full conversation.
