The document describes an "ethics game" to reveal a person's values and predict their decisions through scenarios. It involves weighing what they stand to gain or lose from different choices. Players are put in a sales director role where their region competes for bonuses. Early decisions involve responding to fraudulent applications or relaxing loan approval rules. Scoring tracks what went well and less well to show how the person did without judgment. The game aims to provide insight into what types of decisions someone is likely to make.
Power can have several disadvantages according to the document. It states that those in power will be watched constantly, scrutinizing every aspect of their behavior. Additionally, powerful individuals may not receive honest feedback as people are afraid to criticize them or want to please them.

Furthermore, the document suggests that power can make people focus more on themselves, become less sensitive to others, ignore advice, and treat situations and people as means to satisfy their own needs and wants rather than considering others.
How to sabotage your sales with bad assumptions.docxMaha Researchlabs
This document discusses how assumptions can sabotage sales and entire sales organizations if left unexamined. It explains that assumptions become beliefs, which become mindsets that drive outcomes. At an individual level, a salesperson assuming the buyer understands costs could kill a deal. At an organizational level, the assumption that great salespeople are innate rather than developed can lead to a mindset of only hiring stars, resulting in poor performance from constant hiring and firing. The document advocates examining assumptions and replacing harmful ones with supportive beliefs and practices to improve sales outcomes.
This document summarizes key ideas from Daniel Kahneman's book "Thinking Fast and Slow" about two modes of thinking - System 1 thinking which is fast, automatic, and emotional and System 2 thinking which is slower, more deliberative, and logical. It describes various cognitive biases that result from System 1 thinking such as priming, familiarity, and the halo effect. It provides tips for avoiding cognitive biases in business contexts like hiring and planning. The overall message is that while intuitive thinking has its place, it's important to recognize cognitive biases and use deliberate, data-driven System 2 thinking when high stakes decisions are involved.

This document discusses abundant thinking, which is about adopting a mindset of abundance rather than scarcity. It defines abundant thinking as focusing on appreciating what you have rather than what you lack, and believing that good things are possible and within reach. Abundant thinking is positive thinking that is aligned with universal laws like the Law of Attraction and the Law of Cause and Effect. Practicing abundant thinking makes people happier and more likely to take advantage of opportunities because it creates positive expectations and self-fulfilling results.
The document describes a personal experience where the author's 4-month-old daughter Caitlin developed a fever. In a panic, the author and his wife took Caitlin to the emergency room. The ER doctor recognized they were panicked new parents and calmed them down, explaining that fevers are common in children and not always serious. The parents were embarrassed to learn Caitlin's fever was actually low-grade. They realized they overreacted and caused unnecessary stress. The author says this taught them not to panic over temporary situations and that downturns in the stock market, like fevers, are normal and temporary.

However, transparency, collaboration, and intimacy build trust. Green outlines a "trust equation" where trustworthiness depends on credibility, reliability, intimacy, and low self-orientation. Nursing scores highest on trust due to its focus on intimacy. Green advises salespeople to build trust through helpful content, adding value, and openness rather than manipulation. Younger generations may score higher on empathy and trust due to greater exposure to diversity.

How (Un)Ethical Are YouMost of us believe that we are ethiLizbethQuinonez813
How (Un)Ethical Are You
Most of us believe that we are ethical and unbiased. We believe that we:
Make good decisions
Are objective, and
Reach fair and rational conclusions
Research shows that in reality most fall short of our inflated self-perception, where we
have the illusion of objectivity
These unconscious or implicit biases can be contrary to our consciously held, explicit beliefs
As leaders we need to let go of the notion that our conscious attitudes always represent what we think
The prevalence of these biases suggests that the most well being person unwittingly allows conscious thoughts and feeling to influence our objective decisions
This article explores four related sources of unintentional unethical decision-making:
Implicit forms of prejudice
Bias that favours one’s own group
A tendency to over-claim credit
Conflict of interest
1. Implicit Prejudice: Bias that emerges from unconscious beliefs
Research shows that people judge according:
to unconscious stereotypes
attitudes, or implicit prejudice
We learn to associate things that commonly go together and expect them to inevitably co-exist
Example:
Thunder and rain, grey hair and old age. We automatically make such associations to help us organize our thoughts. We grow to trust these stereo-types, however, they are binding and typically not accurate
Because implicit prejudice come from the ordinary and unconscious tendency to make associations, it is distinct from conscious forms of prejudice
This explains why people who are free of conscious prejudice still demonstrate biases
Example:
People who had strong implicit biases were less likely to select women for positions who exhibited “masculine” personalities qualities, such as ambition or independence
The biased perception was that these women possessed less social skills than men.
2. In-Group Favouritism: Bias the Favours Your Group
Have you ever helped someone get a position by asking a favour. Few people set out to exclude anyone through such acts of kindness
In-group favouritism amounts to giving extra credit to someone within your group
Yet while discriminating against those who are not part of the group is considered unethical, helping people seemingly close to us is often viewed favourably
Research shows that where people are equally qualified and similar in all respects, the person who is considered “part of the group” will unconsciously be seen to be more qualified
There is no hatred or hostility….this behaviour is the root of discriminatory favouritism
An example of this is where minorities, who are sometimes more qualified, are unconsciously discriminated against
3. Overclaiming Credit: Bias that Favours You
People generally hold positive views about themselves
Studies show that the majority of people consider themselves above average. The more we think of our own contributions, the less fairly we judge others
Research also shows that the more people think o ...

"Does Foreign Direct Investment Negatively Affect Preservation of Culture in the Global South? Case Studies in Thailand and Cambodia."
Do elements of globalization, such as Foreign Direct Investment (FDI), negatively affect the ability of countries in the Global South to preserve their culture? This research aims to answer this question by employing a cross-sectional comparative case study analysis utilizing methods of difference. Thailand and Cambodia are compared as they are in the same region and have a similar culture. The metric of difference between Thailand and Cambodia is their ability to preserve their culture. This ability is operationalized by their respective attitudes towards FDI; Thailand imposes stringent regulations and limitations on FDI while Cambodia does not hesitate to accept most FDI and imposes fewer limitations. The evidence from this study suggests that FDI from globally influential countries with high gross domestic products (GDPs) (e.g. China, U.S.) challenges the ability of countries with lower GDPs (e.g. Cambodia) to protect their culture. Furthermore, the ability, or lack thereof, of the receiving countries to protect their culture is amplified by the existence and implementation of restrictive FDI policies imposed by their governments.
My study abroad in Bali, Indonesia, inspired this research topic as I noticed how globalization is changing the culture of its people. I learned their language and way of life which helped me understand the beauty and importance of cultural preservation. I believe we could all benefit from learning new perspectives as they could help us ideate solutions to contemporary issues and empathize with others.

A toxic combination of 15 years of low growth, and four decades of high inequality, has left Britain poorer and falling behind its peers. Productivity growth is weak and public investment is low, while wages today are no higher than they were before the financial crisis. Britain needs a new economic strategy to lift itself out of stagnation.
Scotland is in many ways a microcosm of this challenge. It has become a hub for creative industries, is home to several world-class universities and a thriving community of businesses – strengths that need to be harness and leveraged. But it also has high levels of deprivation, with homelessness reaching a record high and nearly half a million people living in very deep poverty last year. Scotland won’t be truly thriving unless it finds ways to ensure that all its inhabitants benefit from growth and investment. This is the central challenge facing policy makers both in Holyrood and Westminster.
What should a new national economic strategy for Scotland include? What would the pursuit of stronger economic growth mean for local, national and UK-wide policy makers? How will economic change affect the jobs we do, the places we live and the businesses we work for? And what are the prospects for cities like Glasgow, and nations like Scotland, in rising to these challenges?

Fabular Frames and the Four Ratio ProblemMajid Iqbal
Digital, interactive art showing the struggle of a society in providing for its present population while also saving planetary resources for future generations. Spread across several frames, the art is actually the rendering of real and speculative data. The stereographic projections change shape in response to prompts and provocations. Visitors interact with the model through speculative statements about how to increase savings across communities, regions, ecosystems and environments. Their fabulations combined with random noise, i.e. factors beyond control, have a dramatic effect on the societal transition. Things get better. Things get worse. The aim is to give visitors a new grasp and feel of the ongoing struggles in democracies around the world.
Stunning art in the small multiples format brings out the spatiotemporal nature of societal transitions, against backdrop issues such as energy, housing, waste, farmland and forest. In each frame we see hopeful and frightful interplays between spending and saving. Problems emerge when one of the two parts of the existential anaglyph rapidly shrinks like Arctic ice, as factors cross thresholds. Ecological wealth and intergenerational equity areFour at stake. Not enough spending could mean economic stress, social unrest and political conflict. Not enough saving and there will be climate breakdown and ‘bankruptcy’. So where does speculative design start and the gambling and betting end? Behind each fabular frame is a four ratio problem. Each ratio reflects the level of sacrifice and self-restraint a society is willing to accept, against promises of prosperity and freedom. Some values seem to stabilise a frame while others cause collapse. Get the ratios right and we can have it all. Get them wrong and things get more desperate.

Vicinity Jobs’ data includes more than three million 2023 OJPs and thousands of skills. Most skills appear in less than 0.02% of job postings, so most postings rely on a small subset of commonly used terms, like teamwork.
Laura Adkins-Hackett, Economist, LMIC, and Sukriti Trehan, Data Scientist, LMIC, presented their research exploring trends in the skills listed in OJPs to develop a deeper understanding of in-demand skills. This research project uses pointwise mutual information and other methods to extract more information about common skills from the relationships between skills, occupations and regions.

3. INTRODUCTION
We are twice as likely to focus on affirming information:
1. We find a company or investment which we think is great
value
2. We look for information that agrees with us, and tend to
only see information as supporting our hypothesis
3. We like to be agreed with, to have our views confirmed and
to listen to those who have the same view as us
4. INTRODUCTION
This is called confirmatory bias, to avoid this:
1. Find a company or investment we like and think is
great
2. Then destroy that company or investment
5. LET’S SEE HOW WE CAN AVOID CONFIRMATORY
BASIS BY HAVING A GAME PLAN…..
“Companies die and how they’re
killed…here are the ways you implode:
you don’t generate cash, you burn cash,
you’re over-leveraged, you play Russian
Roulette, you have idiots for
management, you have a bad board, you
‘de-worsify’, you buy stocks too high, you
lie with GAAP accounting.” Bruce
Berkowitz
6. CONFIRMATORY BIAS
The brain looks for patterns, we have so much information to deal with we delete what we
deem unnecessary
We base the value we place on information on the value we place on the current information
we have – consider “what if our current values are wrong?”
Consider Weapons of Mass Destruction – same facts but fundamentally the outcome is
dependent on pre-held beliefs:
Political views
Human Rights views
Nationalistic views
7. CONFIRMATORY BIAS
Whatever we are doing, including investing we turn
to confirmatory bias
Need to adopt a process of falsification – Darwin
looked for what did not fit
8. CONFIRMATORY BIAS
– TAKING THE RIGHT STEPS
There are no hard and fast rules but:
Talk to people who hold opposing views
If you cannot find the intellectual flaw in their arguments this
suggests there are some in yours
Don’t look to confirm what is believed
Expose belief to the acid bath test
9. CONFIRMATORY BIAS–
SUMMARY
You find a company or investment you like
Ignore the noise, kill the company or investment
Then be completely honest with yourself and ask
whether you still want to invest in that company or
investment
