This paper will be looking at the role of a Marketing Director understanding the biases in others. According to Bazerman & Moore, (2013, p. 223), “the task of evaluating the decisions of others is fundamentally different from the task of auditing your own decisions.” I have learned while taking this “Judgement in Managerial Decision Making,” class that my unconscious bias influences the way I make decisions and, perhaps more importantly, leads to collective or societal awareness agreements about how I behave or what I believe.
