Book Synopsis Dealing with biases by : Hendrik Feiken
Download or read book Dealing with biases written by Hendrik Feiken. This book was released on 2014-09-18. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This books explores the bias that is introduced by erosion and sedimentation on the distribution of archaeological materials in Mediterranean landscapes. It describes innovative and interdisciplinary work that led to the formulation of a broad range of geo-archeological approaches that are applied to two Italian areas, studied intensively by the Groningen Institute of Archaeology: the Pontine Region in South Lazio, and the Raganello Basin in North Calabria. The approaches deal with geological biases affecting the study of protohistoric remains in the sedimentary part of the Pontine plain; the development of a detailed landscape classification approach to predict and test site location preferences and survey biases in the uplands of both study areas; and the development and evaluation of an innovative computerised landscape evolution model for a test area in the Raganello Basin uplands. In addition to the presented case study, this book also shows how the three geo-archaeological approaches can be applied in a wider context to quantitatively understand how erosion and sedimentation bias our understanding of archaeological records.

Book excerpt: Winner of the getAbstract International Business Award 2020: "An important, complex issue becomes tangible: 'Fair Leadership' provides no less than the necessary tools for sustainable companies - eloquent, knowledgeable and inspiring." (German edition) The more diverse a team, the more important are social and cultural skills of managers. They must be aware of the way people interact with each other, be able to exert influence and - more than ever - be a role model for others. Veronika Hucke shows that this task is not as difficult as it seems. After reading her book, managers at all levels know: How unconscious bias and stereotypes can impact their behavior and judgement. How to avoid injustice and defuse micro-aggression. How to lead a heterogeneous team where everyone can be themselves. How to make the diversity of your team a collective strength. How to conduct difficult conversations also with people very different from oneself. How to remove barriers that stand in the way of shared success. Harvard Business Manager 02/2020: "The author makes it easy for managers, uses numerous examples to show what is at stake in many teams, and has a wealth of practical tips and tools aimed at a fair management style."

Book Synopsis Overcoming Bias by : Sue Ellen Christian
Download or read book Overcoming Bias written by Sue Ellen Christian. This book was released on 2017-05-12. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Journalists go out of their way to avoid purposeful bias in the news. But there is a more pervasive set of internal biases and flaws in thinking that can lead to unintentional inaccuracies and distortions in news coverage. This engaging book offers a fresh take on reporting without bias, targeting the way that we categorize people, filter information and default to rehearsed ways of thinking. Included throughout are stories and on-target advice from reporters and editors, providing real-world voices and experiences. This advice and guidance is coupled with practical exercises that give readers the chance to apply what they learn. Overcoming Bias will teach readers to edit their thinking for habitual errors, making them more perceptive journalists. It provides a career-long foundation for challenging bias. This is an ideal text for a course on multi-cultural reporting or journalism ethics; it may also be used as a supplement in any course on reporting and writing, as each chapter deals with potential biases that emerge at each stage of the story process, from story ideas to editing.
