Portledge in the Now.

Portledge Book Club

The Person You Mean to Be is an inspiring by Dolly Chugh is an inspiring and accessible guide from an award-winning social psychologist on how to confront difficult issues, including sexism, racism, inequality, and injustice, so that you can make the world (and yourself) better.  Dolly Chugh, a social psychologist and professor at the New York University Stern School of Business, reveals the surprising causes of inequality, grounded in the “psychology of good people.”  Using her research findings in unconscious bias as well as work across psychology, sociology, economics, political science, and other disciplines, she offers practical tools to respectfully and effectively talk politics with family, to be a better colleague to people who don’t look like you, and to avoid being a well-intentioned barrier to equality.  Becoming the person we mean to be starts with a look at ourselves.

The conversation will be lead by Martha Haakmat of Haakmat Consulting and Portledge Director of DEI, Olga Florentino.
