Duped! How Unsafe People Leverage Cognitive Bias and Blind Spots to Hurt Us

Event Description

Online registration is now closed.
If you would still like to join, email kerbach@mnbars.org by 11:00 am on May 20.


This CLE explores topics relevant for lawyers and leaders in navigating social interactions and interactions with clients that may lead to harmful financial, organizational, or reputational consequences. What are the key signs of unsafe people? How do people manipulate and trick us into hiring them, buying products we don’t want or need, paying too much for a big purchase, or making decisions that no one could possibly want? Humans are not the best decision-makers due to defects in the machinery of cognition. This CLE is designed to uncover some of the things we don’t know and how to stop making decisions that are not in the best interests of ourselves or others.
