Teamwork Overcoming STEM biases


Listen Later

 Good engineers know that nothing gets done without a team. The best teams are those with diverse points of view, working toward the same goal. But not every group of people is a team. What makes a team truly inclusive and successful? 


In this episode, host Wanda Sigur will speak with Dr. Latonia Harris, senior director at the Janssen Pharmaceutical Companies of Johnson and Johnson, and Dr. Susan Fiske, head of the intergroup relations, social cognition and social neuroscience lab at Princeton University. They’ll talk about how to make a team truly work together, to synergize, and to make sure that the team’s results don’t perpetuate racial and gender bias.
