We all want to believe we are entirely objective. But unfortunately, we’re not. There are obvious biases that are unacceptable, but then there are others that can affect how you supervise and how you conduct performance evaluations. This bias is about how you learn compared to how your employees or supervisees learn. When you understand how you learn and how that affects the way you see the world, you can better appreciate the way your employees and supervisees take in the world.
To understand yourself as a learner, you can read Finding Your Way and you can subscribe to the Personal Learning Coach.
Finding Your Way is structured to guide you on a very interactive and personal journey. You will discover how to use your mind with intention—that is, with a consciousness of what you are doing and why you are doing it—to absorb information and develop skills and judgment through self-directed assessment and personal reflection.
With this new-found self-awareness, you can make better-informed evaluations of your employees or supervisees.
