A loved one and I
were watching
the business network.
Quite a few of the guests
were women.
My loved one asked me,
“Do you think
women are OVER represented now?”
Seeking an answer
to that question,
we tracked how many guests
were male and how many were female.
Around 30% of the guests
were women.
That’s much less
than the 51% expected representation.
We thought there were quite a few
female guests
because we’re accustomed
to seeing NO female guests.
This is why
we need facts
before we make decisions.
Our perception
of situations
can be biased.
Gather the facts.
Test your perception
of the situation.
