129 - Why We Instantly Like or Dislike People (for No Apparent Reason) The Halo and Horns Effect

Episode notes

Send us Fan Mail Ever immediately like or dislike someone you just met? That's likely the result of implicit bias we are totally unaware of. In this solo episode, I discuss how biases we are unaware of - like the Horns and Halo effect - influence judgments we make in our personal and professional lives based on positive or negative characteristics rather than objective facts. Top Takeaways First impressions are heavily influenced by the Horns and Halo effect. Implicit bias affects our judgments without us realizing. Being aware of these biases can improve client relationships. Shared interests, like rescue dogs, can create instant connections. Disliking someone initially may be based on unconscious biases.
