A Word With Yourself
The Halo Effect, Overconfidence, Recency Bias — and Poor Subway Etiquette
28 Mar 2025
Description
In this episode of A Word With Yourself, we unpack the halo effect, groupthink, recency bias, overconfidence—and why people still can’t figure out how to behave on the subway. From mistaking charisma for competence to promoting the wrong people and making questionable decisions just to keep the peace, we look at how these biases creep into the workplace (and life). Expect a few tangents and a reminder that just because everyone agrees doesn’t mean it’s a good idea.
