Understanding blind spots
2:19
Challenge assumptions
Our brains are wired to make assumptions, which can sometimes be off base. We think it’s an honest mistake; science calls it a blind spot.
3:24
Broaden perspectives
It’s natural to gravitate towards people who are like us. But making decisions solely on who we’re comfortable with can cause tunnel vision.
3:17
Enhance objectivity
First impressions can block objectivity, which can cause missed opportunities. Sometimes wanting to be “right” can take us in the wrong direction.
3:25
Overcome stereotypes
Stereotypes can influence our perception of who’s the “right fit.” They may create a road block towards our destination.
Once you accept that you have potential blind spots, you can choose to do something about it. Make decisions and act in a way that aligns your conscious intentions with your behaviors. Shift your focus so you can see what’s possible.
Explore your blind spots
Continue your blind spot journey
To further explore the power of blind spots, PwC has provided a grant to Harvard University to create Outsmarting Human Minds. This initiative includes podcasts, videos and other materials that apply insights from psychological science to help us improve the decisions we make in life and at work.
