Event Summary:

Are you keen on exploring leading edge HR and business knowledge? Do you enjoy learning and sharing thoughts with others? Each meeting we have a discussion topic based on a book, article or video. This provides a forum where HR Practitioners can tap into the experiences of the group and link to vast array of HR related literature. Not everyone will have time to read the book, article or view a video before the meeting. Please join us regardless and share your experience and learn together.


We will discuss the book Blind Spot: Hidden Biases of Good People by Mahzarin Banaji and Anthony Greenwald, Delacorte Press, New York, 2013. The book is available from Amazon.com and others for about $30 � a good yet �easy� read.
