1. What is groupthink, and how can homogeny lead to groupthink? How can you reduce Groupthink?
2. What are your thoughts about meritocracy? How could meritocracy promote bias against minority members? Why might finding a mentor or sponsor be an important key to success?
3. What do you think of anonymization? Strengths? Weaknesses? Where could you use it?
4. Think about increasing transparency. Are you very transparent with:
How you are setting the criteria for “best person” for the job? How are promotion decisions made? How is pay determined? How do people get into the high-potential pool? Why? Or why not? What are the risks? On the other hand, what are the opportunities associated with being more transparent?
