Today’s guest is Dr. Brenda Lloyd-Jones (AKA Dr. Brenda Joy). She is an Associate Professor of Human Relations at the University of Oklahoma. She’s also a coach, TV personality, presenter and author. We discuss how our unconscious biases blur our view of people when we meet them. We make assumptions and attach stereotypes to individuals unknowingly. By acknowledging these biases, we can slowly eliminate them allowing others to convey their authentic selves, rather than the people we expect them to be.
Also, enjoy our discussion of Assertive Communication, The ABCs of Communication, and how to effectively use “I” Statements. These are all tools are used in coaching sessions – and life.
Mudge Nudge – Perception is NOT reality.
